My eye specialist has some sort of computerized thing that can read what we see and where. I have glaucoma.<br />We have things on the top of the kitchen cabinets that we rarely, if ever, use. I think they will need a couple of cycles through the dishwasher to get them clean again.

Many jobs are just easier with two people. I see you even have a blue standing mixer upper. Do you use it a lot? Brad recently asked me if we should get one. In the past I wanted one but couldn't afford them. Our handheld (two blender) mixer, which is pretty old by now has worked well for my occasional baking. Brad does makes pizza/stromboni crust. Can't think of what the benefit of one would be. Goof luck with your eye test results. If you think you passed with flying colors, then you most likely did. aurorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04731529798233954353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-76350180515274812952021-04-24T08:35:51.962-05:002021-04-24T08:35:51.962-05:00Praying you pass your tests.

So far, it is not progressing and would not be at the point it is if the doctor I used for "years" had been more astute. <br /> I really really hope you don't have macular degeneration - - and if you do that it is the "better" one.<br />It's unfortunate that I took for granted the way my body functioned without problems when I was younger. "Things" have happened to me that I thought would not - - because "I" wasn't going to let myself get that way. LOL.
