Just when I'm thinking any intervention will be excessive, due to time-effectiveness, something jolts me out of that zone. As usual, I was up for an hour or so in the early morning, about 2-3 a.m., and went back to bed and to sleep. D. didn't have school bus duty as Joe was home, so I slept late, til 8: a.m. When I got out of bed, my left knee didn't want to function without pain, or bear any weight. The pain was mostly in the kneecap area. The thought crossed my mind of emergency repair, but that would be chancy, at best. After a while, and a few more test runs, the knee went back to normal, normal for it anyway. If that were the only problem I'm statistically likely to face at this stage of the game of life, the course would be clear.
Snookie called me yesterday, saying she wanted to talk to an older person. Her birthday is Wed. Then she will be the same age as me, for another 360 days. She is having problems with her vision, and, as an avid reader, is anxious to do all that's possible to preserve it. Our good Dr. S., several years ago, told her that she would be dead before her eye disease affected her vision. Shows what he knows, again not as much as he thinks he knows.
