Your schedule seems rather rushed to me. It took Rite-Aid Pharmacy TWO WEEKS to dispense 3 sets of eye drops. (Don't ask why.) I don't think a week would give you enough time. I hate being rushed and would probably tell them that they needed to give me a better idea of what would be going on before we schedule.

Someone introduced me to Quordle. It's where you have to solve 4 Wordles at once. It's very bizarre. I think that i like it. But i'm not sure if the best strategy is to use up a lot of letters first before trying to solve any of the puzzles. I seem to win that way but it always takes me till the last guess.

Did they give you options for the new lens? Most people opt for distance vision, but I opted for computer distance, which works really well for me. I had a Toric lens implanted, which I think cost about $4K (both eyes). They need to take measurements prior to the surgery.

Jane, I started taking glycine 2-3 weeks ago, one 500 mg capsule on an empty stomach 1-2 hours before bed. I saw improvement right away. My sleep quality was better and I was sleeping somewhat longer, but not long enough. I added a second 500 mg cap in the morning and my sleep improved again. It's still not quite where I'd like it -- I need to sleep longer -- but the quality is much better.

Instead of the second 500 mg in the morning you could take 1000 mg in the evening.

I tried to schedule an Uber to take me to tomorrow's ophthalmology appointment: $43!!

I then called Yellow Cab:$14.50.  I just hope they show up. I REALLY have trouble driving while dilated.

I am very, very, very relieved that Macron was re-elected.

Bruce, you referred to your car as female, but from your description it sounded like a male. Perhaps a sultry female?

[Jeanne]

TTFN.

Ordered some pasta from The Cheesecake Factory.

Thanks for the information on the sleep aid, DR Jeanne.

The book is nonfiction, however, the author admits taking narrative liberties and composing dialogue, and occasionally juggled chronology “to create a smoother story line”.

I remember reading something else by her. It was the same.

I liked her style of writing, but then I also like to think a nonfiction book is truly nonfiction.  It was drilled into us, my one ex-teacher in our group, that this is a modern day style of a memoir.  I guess my concept of a memoir has evolved-lol

Well, no one can say we didn't get past post #100.

Good night, friends.

Thank you for the suggestion.  We tried it last night.  I took 1000 mg last night.  It didn't make me sick which was a good start as so many things do.  I can't tell if it helped or if it was a coincidence I felt relaxed about half an hour later.  I slept ok but not great.

Big difference.  Do you have a phone app for Yellow Cab, like Uber, on your phone?

Sounds fun.

I agree. It’s why I only read one of her books.

Moi aussi.

Starting to watch Nightmare Alley. The ambience is wonderful, even if the the story isn’t my favorite. Toni Collette is wonderful and looks better than I’ve ever seen her. Veronica Lake’s hairdo suits her. Bradley Cooper isn’t as beautiful as Tyrone Power, but he smolders.

[John G.]

I had to.

[John G.]

I hope to make it this weekend.

[John G.]

I did not like working at the office today. It was empty and I got lazy about wesring my mask.

[John G.]

I did get a lot of work done.

[John G.]

But I left stuff at home, like my pills. It’s just odd.

[John G.]

Can we get off this page?

[John G.]

A few more.

[John G.]

And a few less.

[John G.]

Onward!
