Failing eyesight

hallo again, i know that it has been a while since i last blogged but i hope that from the recent visit to my friend's blog it will give me a nudge and inspiration for me to continue with my own blog .. 

anyhow, i'd like to tell you about my failing eyesight, read it in my friend's blog about the same entry and i have my own share of being blur which is very irritating at times .. 

my degree on both eyes are considered quite high, for my contact lense on my left eye, i am wearing a -7 lense and on my right eye, my lense degree is -4.5 but they are not as clear as i hope it to be but the strange thing  is my optician here in Holland tells me that that is the highest degree they can offer me as they have no more higher degrees while in Malaysia one is able to get lenses which are higher degrees from the ones i have. i think eventually i will be wearing my spectacles more permanently and that i will have to give up my contact lenses altogether. I have been wearing contact lenses for almost 20 years that i am still not so used to the idea of wearing spectacles 24/7, 365 days., and the fact is that I still prefer driving with my contact lenses on. 

anyhow, i just got a new pair of spectacles with reading part which i still don't get as i don't feel the difference between my last spectacles and this new one. but i must admit this new spectacles is much more clearer, haha, i must be confusing you with what i am saying cause i myself wonder what am i talking about .. 

well hopefully in time i will be able to accept that my eyes will be better off with spectacles 24/7, 365 days .. or at least i should admit that my eyes r getting older :)

Life is a puzzle

The title says it all and at the end of the day, it is up to you to decide who or what fits in your life.

Weather

Hey there, wonder what I can story with you all today, maybe I should talk about the weather. Since the last couple of days, it has been wet and windy, well actually it is a typical spring weather and we should be thankful for all the rain that we are getting but to be able to enjoy being outside is just not ideal at the moment.

This is also the time when flowers and plants start to blossom, oh what a wonderful site that is. When the sun is shining you could even have a picnic and feel the sun ray shining on your face. Children running and playing outside, listening to their laughter, screams and cries is just a joy.

In 2 weeks, school children will be having May vacation for 2 weeks and I wonder if they will be able to play outside then, hopefully the weather would be dry with blue skies. It would be a shame if the weather is not nice and instead children would have to play in an indoor playground etc.,

Talking about the weather, I used to wonder why people here gets depressed during the cold winter months, well it is not so much when the sky is blue with sun shining and cold but when the sky is grey, it does tend to make one feel very down looking at the sky and it hurts ones eye as well when looking up.

Well so much about the weather for now, we will just have to wait and see how will the coming weather be like, hoping for a warm summer though, would very much like to go to the beach and spend our time there. Sure miss the beach so very much, the smell, the waves and everything about the beach. Fingers crossed that it will be a hot hot summer then.

Story

Let's see, it has been ages since I came to blog and after story-ing with my better half about my blog, I thought it was a good idea to come and story here once more ..

Now, what shall I say, let me have a think. Today is 10/4 and in a few weeks time, half of the year of 2012 will be behind us, how time flies, too fast and yet at times I wished that it would go even faster, fast forward to where I want it to be.

There are days I wonder how the future would be like, I am so curious to know since these last couple of months. I wished I have a magic ball and I won't be feeling so restless most of the time. Life has certainly changed since the last couple of months, well not that it has gotten better or worse just that a unique situation sort of crept into our lives. For now there is nothing we can do about that unique situation but to wait is a struggle at times., and wished that at the end of that wait, there will be light at the end of the tunnel or rainbow with a pot of gold awaiting. Oh how I wish it will be so. Praying very hard and hoping is all that we can do for now. It is indeed a torture sometimes, well most of the time actually. At times I wonder why life is so, my dilemma may not be as bad as others, in fact it is not too bad with some patients in us, we should be able to reach the end point in a blink of an eye like the saying goes ..

Well, I guess that is all I would be story-ing for now .. I should be coming here more as time goes by .. kisses and hugs from me to you readers who have stopped by to read my short story .. and I Thank You.

Labour Day 2011

Today, 1st May and we are having a wonderful day, blue sky with lots of sunshine except for the strong breeze .. it is a nice breeze when one is sitting directly under the sun but when one is hiding under the shade, it can be pretty cold and the temperature is showing 17 degrees C brrrr .. Anyway spent the afternoon at a park .. girls had fun, running, jumping, climbing .. throwing their frisbee .. managed to take only a few pictures as totally forgot to bring along another set of batteries and hence the few pictures .. Next time must remember to check batteries before going out .. hmmm
