I'm Bi Now

I am nearly 50 years old. When I was 18 it was suggested I get bi focals. All this time I have gotten single vision glasses. Today I got a pair of bi focals. To me now everything seems to be out of focus or not in the right range to see it. 😞

Any other players here who play OTB chess semi blindfolded??

Hey, Ice, I'm a whisker short of fifty, and have had glasses since 25....lately, I've begun to struggle to read cooking instructions on ready meals (for example).

If you play any golf, you'll know what I mean by this:
You can only play the shots you brought along in the bag today....
(If you don't play golf, you can probably figure it out anyway 🙂)

It takes some initial getting used to, but once you accept it, you stop worrying about it quite so much, adapt...and enjoy more.

Don't forget to smell the flowers.

Golf - a sport where you have to buy and buy and buy to fill up your collection. Sounds like Magic the Gathering.

The doc was a she, and my wife is quite pretty. She looks like Bettie Page, pure coincidence that I am the #1 Page fan. 😳

Then she must have been setting you up for a seeing eye dog. 😉
