Eye Floaties

So....

The last week has been quite emotionally intense. More than intense, really.

And I'm a little tired. Luckily--things are looking better---well--relatively--for my mom. So praying and praying...

But--here's a totally random topic to discuss today.

Did you know that we can develop eye floaties?

Yup--we can.

And I know this--cause I HAVE ONE!!! And yes--it's a little annoying.

I have good vision (other than dry eyes because of medications I'm on plus way too much time in front of this here computer).

So--once I started having this weird floatie dark think in one eye--I kind of freaked out a little.

But--one night, while I was living "up north"....I literally looked up "eye float" on Google.

And guess what--this is NORMAL. Like a huge amount of us (as in humans) get these--especially once we hit our thirties.

Kay--like, had no idea! I can't really remember how they develop. But they typically disappear over time (mine has not yet).

You should get them checked out by an eye doctor, just in case.

But really....the things I've learned about over the years about the human body (mainly cause I experience them) that no body tells us, are actually "typical" problems.

Wow!

Otherwise---I'm beginning to accept the reality that fall is here. The leaves are changing here "in the south". But, it's still pretty warm during the day. In fact, last week was REALLY warm.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it--and of course, am maintaining my annual goal of wearing capris as long as possible (my goal is to make it to November this year!!).

Yes--my logical brain sometimes walks outside, and expects cold--but instead "cool" is what we're dealing with. But, my "emotional brain" responds with JOY!!!

I love how slow fall is coming on. It usually does this in KS too, even though fall comes slightly earlier. I LOVE THAT!!!

I hated that last year--that basically by the end of September, fall was over. It's like that in UT (notice--it's already SNOWED there!!!) I'm good with slow season changes, thank you!!!

But--yes--the desire for "holiday" celebration is slowly growing. I had my nieces and nephew help me decorate for Halloween while they were visiting last week (that was REALLY fun).

And--yes, strangely enough--I've started watching my annual "It's a Wonderful Life" marathon. For some reason, at this time of year, especially when "the other shoe drops"--which it kind of did some last week---that movie brings me comfort. So--hey--whatever works!!!

Have a loverly!
