When I hit post....I think all the words are misspelled. I look again and they are not. My brain is playing tricks on me again. I had such an overwhelming sense of loss yesterday evening when i was out to the store (i had to hurry as it was right before dusk and sight diminishes greatly then), at the freedoms Ive lost because of my eyesight and sometimes other physical problems. I only go out into the wider world by myself when I know I can count on my eyes to get me home. Close to home its not a problem...as i am fairly confident in my surroundings. But the fact that I cant just get up and go even across town now at any time day or night has made me withdraw more into my own world at home. Which is fine...most of the time. But it does bother me that I have to accommodate everything I do, with that in mind. Ive gotten so used to it, making subtle accommodations that limit my movements (I have to, its NOT by choice).....and I forget what I miss out in sometimes and well, I miss it. That feeling of freedom. To be able to do something without having to plan ten steps ahead.
