Always give in to temptation. The opportunity may not come around again...

Ok I will go get my reader and put it on. Then I will be ready should the power go out and I can't use my computer!

Good preparation is the key to good performance. May I suggest turning on the kettle right now too?

The book is on the reader.

I was just about to put the kettle on. Time for a green tea (Jasmine).

Although it is now 10.22 and I still have not done any work, or looked at the tax returns.

Shouldn't it be impossible to read without light?

SneakySnake · 08-23-2011, 10:48 PM

I have a battery operated clip on light!

Anyway the power is still on despite the high winds, and I have completed our tax returns yay! Will sit on them overnight and lodge tommorrow maybe.

Good thinking.

When the lights go out all I can do is to go to bed.

No candles or flashlights?

maianhvk · 08-24-2011, 07:51 AM

Candles are tricky. Have to find a lighter first, or a match, in the darkness?

I have flashlight, but I don't like its light

Too "cold". Too "neon".

What? It's because K3 is e-ink! If I had Galaxy Tab...

Okay, I admit it, I'm too lazy to go find anything in the dark. Back in high school, it was a good excuse to go to bed early without doing homework

I am dreading going to ceramics class this morning. I find it boring. But Tim loves it. He is painting a big thing with dolphins that is beautiful.

I am doing a ceramic purse to hold hairbrushes and stuff. It is all bright yellow, just cover it inside and out. Nothing a blind woman like me can truly mess up. Just keep stroking on the yellow glaze until the class ends. Yawn.

I LOVE painting on ceramic statues, DG. You should really enjoy it!!

In other circumstances, I would like it. But for me, it only emphasizes to me how little sight that I have left. And I hate things that make me feel sorry for myself because of losing my vision.

I must have missed some info about your eyes. What's wrong with them? Short sighted, or worse?
