Day 347 of 365 Days of Being Thankful

        

         Today I am thankful that I didn't have to get a shot in my eye at the retina specialist.  I was thrilled because it has been over a year since I had t get a shot.  My regular retina specialist stopped seeing patients a few months ago and they switched me to a new doc.  I really liked my regular doc but I also like the new doc I have.  Today when I was in the office, there was a sign posted that said my regular doc  had died on Nov. 25th. I was so sad to read that.  He was probably in his fifties and such a wonderful man who was so knowledgeable, it is such a loss to the vision community.  He always asked me what I was reading because I usually had a book with me.  I think he had read almost every book I ever had with me. I use to look at him and think......how must it feel to have so much valuable knowledge in his head?  And now he is gone. I am sad about that.
       I wish that I was not as weak minded. All of my favorite foods are fried and fattening! I buy skinny cow ice cream cones but I eat two instead of one so that is stupid.   The other day Dan told me that he has been ravenous for about a week.  I must have a weak mind because now I am ravenous all of the time!   I keep thinking about food and what I am going to eat next!
