Stockyards/auctions are my social life....:th:th:\:\:\:lol::lol::gig:gig:gig
I met this lady at the ladies group that meets once a month to eat out, make lots of noise and have a good time. She was fascinated by my sheep pictures, so I invited her to the auction. You’d think I asked her to go to Hawaii. LOL

I forgot to mention that I had an eye exam today. I have 20/20 vision, but up close can be hard to read. Dr told me to buy some OTC reading glasses and wrote down what number. And I have the beginning of cataracts, stage 1. Plus a slight stigma, but nothing so bad that it needs attention. So I was pleased with that.

I have what my eye dr called "baby cataracts"... Been the same for 5 years. Told me that I will probably never have enough trouble from them to ever worry about surgery... My eye prescription has been virtually unchanged for 6-8 years. Pressure is exceptional he said... He said to keep doing whatever I am doing. Have always worn glasses for distance since like 8th grade... I get the "progressive " lenses... but take glasses off to read books etc.

Good for you.

Had cataract surgery 4 yrs ago and a pretty hefty astigmatism. Didn’t realize just how good vision could be! Glad I did it and wish I’d done it earlier

Told me to get OTC readers, but how can you trust a optometrist office when every worker all 6 of them are wearing glasses.
Wrote me a prescription out that the VA paid for, never wore them.
I'm going to start on my stock shelters and bring one to the stockyards in town. Never know what might happen.
