Very Tiny Baby Steps
Introduction
Good Evening to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.
It has been a strange week in a number of ways as I have learned to adcept to not being able to see so well, but hopefully it will not be forever, so just need to get on with the problem and not worry.
Certsainly feeling much more positive this week, but at times find it hard that I can only manage to do things in little steps.
One decision that I have made is that I will not drive until my eyes are fixed, far better to be safe than sorry.
The Last Few Days
In some ways the days passed quite quickly, regrettably that it was not business related. One afternoon was spent on a viral committee meeting for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee events, the last four days I have been watching the County Cticket Match on my computer, as I am not driving so could not attend in person.
When I have been at my computer have done a few bits to help plan where I need to be with regard to the future. This does cause a minor upset in that I do not feel comfortable having too long a time staring at the screen.
This of course means that I must find a way to plan for when I am able to get going again. Think that I have possbly given up on any real progress until things are back to normal, but this does not stop me from thinking and planning for when things do return to normal.
One positive that has come out of this, is being able to do some gardening. Not a lot, as I have discevred that I am not as fit as I thought I was, so the garden is being done in easy steps as well.
When looking at some articles that I wish to turn into a product of some description, instead of getting the basics laid out which I usually do, I have decided to just out the heading, usually one word onto the blank page,
The theory being that when I able to do so that I can then work on that product.
The Next Few Days
Must be honest and realistic here, I have not got a clue what I will be doing, no I am not being negative, just honest.
Wiuld like to be able to set some plans for the future, do lnow that I would like to work on the shop in the website, also get some advertising sorted out, the trouble with these ideas is that they take longer than a few minutes and I have the habit of forgetting where I am at when I return to that project. This then takes longer than ever to get sorted.
No doubt as I work through things I will get better at how to adapt to working in short bursts.
Conclusion
The one positive to accept from this week is that I can now accept that my eyes are really bad, meaning that I have just got to adapt my lifestyle and way of working until my sight improves.
Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy
Please do stay safe,
God Bless

Sorry to hear that your eye situation hasn't changed yet Stuart... when do next visit the quack?
In the meantime, just do what you can do, getting out into the garden is a great idea in my opinion (weather permitting of course)!
Even very tiny baby steps still keep us motivated to move forward!
I hope that the start to the new week has been a pleasurable one my friend. :-)
Thanks as always Jessie.
Go my assessment for the left eye on 21 May, not got a date for my lazer treatment.
Take dare,
Stuart
Stuart, only you can set your pace! As you become more proficient the speed will come. The ability to tackle larger and more complex tasks will increase.
Considering all that I think I have accomplished, I consider myself still at the beginning stage of my venture. I take solace in knowing that I am still here.
Keep on moving,
Canty

Hey VH
Sounds like (as usual), you are trying to do too much and with your eyes, it has become even more frustrating. Focus (no pun intended 🤗) on your eyes and health right now. You can work all these things out in your brain without the computer.
They (whoever they are) say that everything happens for a reason and I DO WHOLEHEARTEDLY believe that. You only figure out the reason in hindsight and sometimes not at all. SO, all this is happening to get you to SLOW DOWN and smell some roses.
It will all work out the way it should. Your eyes are so very important. Take care of them so they can work for you. For now, it should be TINY TINY baby steps. Don't feel like there are things that you SHOULD do and get anxious over them.
You'll get through this. Deep breath --- IN with the good, OUT with the bad!!! Now go forth and have a good rest of the week.
Again...................wifely counseling over. 🤣

Hi VW,
Just what would I do without you!! Giving such wise wifely council?
Agree that I have to slow down, this week I have to do some serious work for the Legion, as I have a meeting tonight, they are being told that I have had enough of their back biting and that I am stepping down at the AGM in October, so yes this has caused me some stress, but hopefully I can almost forget that now.
Must confess that I am trying hard not to spend to much time on the computer, do not like it but have to live with it until my eyes are OK once more.
How are you you? One of my cousins has just come back from their flat in Florida after five weeks away. Made me think of you (even more).
Enough idle chit chat, have a great week young lady.
Take care
As always,
Your VH
