Getting old in Winter
Three Score and Now Twelve + Day 125. 12-20-22

Hello Grands and All others
We just had our main daily meal after coming back from grocery shopping. What a zoo it was. The people were getting ready for Christmas and too an upcoming snowstorm which to me does not sound really serious to me. There were more than normal empty shelves with what I noticed as much higher pricing. I sure was glad to get back home. We did get some eye drops for eye tear lubrication. I went to see an actual eye doctor on Monday. he does not think the problem is cataracts, but he thinks it is from prolonged dry eyes. Which has made my eyes as he said like they have sandpaper on them, rough and scaled. So, he recommends Eye drops and hot compresses on my eye's multiple times a day along with flax seed oil pills twice daily. I will go back and see what he thinks again in February. Hopefully the scale will dissolve away and allow more light into my eyes. I never realized or considered dry eyes as that big a problem. I will try to follow the advice. I think the hardest experience for me is the grocery store. The isles piled up high with a lot of lights and glare. I have two follow the wife too know where I am at.
My brother said something to think about a couple of years ago. He said you get old in the winter months. Where he got that from, I do not know. but it does seem to be true. I feel I am aging more this winter. but I am looking forward to daffodils and tulips blooming this spring. Since I will not be ice fishing this season, I will be Bitting at the bite to go kayak fishing this coming spring. I may need to purchase a long-desired Kayak trailer so me and the wife can both go.

We both wish all of you a Blessed Christmas day with family
