Hectic and Confusion

This last week has been a bit hectic and sometimes confusing to me half the time.
I've been catching up on a few chores that I'm able to do and tired myself out. I couldn't even stay awake in the evenings to watch TV. Still got quite a few chore to do and sorting things out for Christmas, that's without getting Christmas shopping in, haven't got hardly anything in for Christmas as yet, i will have to get a move on this week though.

Friday, i went for coffee with my daughter Sheila before we got our shopping which was nice. The shop was absolutely crowded, must be the special offers they've got on at Morrisons on the run up to Christmas.

I had Virgin Media installed this week which is nice, but had problems this morning with Internet and i had to phone Virgin so they could link up to my laptop and get the connections sorted out, now everything is working fine. I let my grandson Steven sort out the connections with the man at the other end of the phone, its a bit too technical for me. I am glad I've got my land line phone back on, i was without a phone for a few days with only my mobile to rely on which isn't good for me as I'm still not used to using it. I always get mixed up with the on and off button. When i go to answer my mobile i always seem to cut the caller off instead of answering my phone..haha!  I've had my mobile phone for at least 4-5 years. You should see the state i get myself in just trying to answer my mobile...hahaha! talk about confusion....
I'll be glad to get my new glasses sometime in December. I keep bumping into things, knocking things over. I am missing reading books and mags ect...without my magnifying glass which is awkward at times and most of all watching TV as everything is so blurry. I sit about 2ft away from the TV just to see programmes i like other than that i just sit and listen mostly...Grr!
With my eyes the way they are right now, I've thought about people who are blind or who have lost their sight and wonder how they adapt and cope with blindness. I am actually losing my sight to Glaucoma and it makes me think of how blind people cope ect...We rely on our eyes so much and most of us don't give it another thought, me included! But, when i found myself going through Trabeculectomy Operations on both my eyes and have seen the way blind people get around it amazes me how they adapted and cope with blindness...It amazes me!
