Catch-up note

I've not had any writing mojo lately, mostly because there isn't much to say. Since my last post I turned 53 (yes my day was lovely), had more hospital visits and more treatments, I slept a lot as I'm a bottomless pit of fatigue and today I went to the optometrist to assess the damage caused by chemo and yep, I need glasses. I have trouble seeing both near and far now, sometimes I'm driving and can't make out what's written on those big green signs so yeah, it's bad. I have one remark: how the EFF are glasses so expensive?! Is good eyesight reserved only for those who can pay for it now? Jiminy cricket it's madness. I go back to get my two pairs (normal and sunglasses) in a couple of weeks, it will take some adaptation as they are progressive lenses but I don't have a choice - I want to SEE stuff while I still can! Just wish there was a magic solution to my taste buds not working properly... maybe then I'd have some kind of appetite and find joy in eating again. Nothing tastes right, foods I normally love seem off somehow, you know how your favorite things are just mmmm and they hit the spot? Well I've lost that spot. I am grumpy about it. Boo.
