Hello! How’s it going? Earlier we talked about RUNNING or more specifically my new running watch. Now let’s talk EATING.
I am so weird with cravings all the time. I’ll get the most intense and random cravings a few times a week and have to have that food asap. A lot of the time it’s actually healthy things or at least not complete crap food. Like this weekend I needed to eat tuna or else.
Last night it was turkey and spaghetti sauce. A quick trip to Target and I had the ingredients (plus a new scratcher for Vegas).
I made the major rookie mistake of going shopping HUNGRY. I made an impulse buy of popcorn and ate most of it on the way home (and it’s only 2 miles away).
Extra lean turkey, zoodles and marinara = a healthy dinner that solved my craving.
Today I tried to run but my body said YOU NEED A REST DAY. I decided to listen because I had to, my legs would not run.
It was a gorgeous day so I just enjoyed a walk. Walking is a great form of exercise because you can look at instagram while you do it. At least I can (because I’m not opposed to falling in public).
Then, I got ready for my first eye doctor appointment in almost 10 years. I got LASIK surgery in college. Research about all you need to know about laser vision correction. But lately I’ve noticed my eyes can’t see certain things people around me can see. It’s nothing major for example, the signs at Morongo the other week but it scared me so I made an appointment.
Long story short, I’m going blind and will soon need a seeing eye dog. Send help.
I came home upset about my diagnosis and asked Vegas to be my seeing eye cat. He just ignored me and kept sleeping. Typical.
Back to my search for a dog helper. I might put an ad out on Craigslist or send out a dog signal (like the Bat signal but for a dog, obvi).
Let me know if you have the scoop on a pet that will help me with my life, feed itself, is housebroken, can be alone if I go on vacation for 2+ weeks at a time and doesn’t mind that I’M VERY LOUD!!!
There was a massive apple in there somewhere…
And I did some awkward stretching in my car because I was early for the appointment (which never has happened before in my life).
as an eye doctor, i’m truly concerned about your diagnosis…what did they say? do you have a disease? or are your eyes just regressing? hope you are ok! and if you are really going blind, there are so many options and devices out there for the future.
also, proud of you for going 🙂
run for sure but i totally agree that walking affords the opportunity to multitask with instagram swiping. =)
Hope your peepers are ok.
Run, walking takes too long. Sometimes I have to park a ways away from my waitress job so I’ll run to work in my black pants, dress shirt and long apron with dress shoes. I’m sure I look silly and late for work but I’m not.
i would rather run because you get to where your going faster but walking is sometimes better because you get less sweaty 🙂 i hope the going blind bit is not serious because WHAT! although you could get a dog like comet from full house and be super popular. although it will probably not help the tripping over thing issue at all
I want to hear more about your eyes too. I was thinking about getting lasik.
Oh no! I’ve also had LASIK (years ago) and lately my eyes have been weird too! I should get myself checked out, I know…
Run, always run! I can’t do walking, I get so bored.
Walk! I love walking – it’s so underrated!
Agh! What’s happening with your eyes??? I’m having LASIK in two weeks but I’m so nervous!!! I hope you will be ok!

I assume your doctor has talked about your options and helper pets. I have known (geez, I feel like Jessica Fletcher) a few people who have been in your position. It was scary, but people have a remarkable capability to adapt. You have the love and support of many.
