210708 Sentinel, Yesterday and Today

My post yesterday about going to the DMV and loss has now been somewhat altered.

I went to an excellent eye doctor today (the one Joyce uses) and when he checked me he said that I was barely within the limits of passing the state eye test and should have been passed. The DMV gave me a printed sheet for an eye doctor to fill out and he wrote on it that there should be no restrictions on my driving ability. He did test everything and said he could prescribe some glasses to totally correct my vision and now I will wait to get them before going back to the DMV. I do have different allergies and had to stand outside the DMV for quite some time before they opened, so I had some very dry eyes and the pollen from local trees may have been the issue. Once I get my glasses I will dutifully go back for another test. Wish me luck!

Yesterday after my post, my west coast guru called me to cheer me up and God bless him he did and he gave me hope. I do need to correct myself here as my west caost guru is no longer on the west coast. He and his family are now simply westerners. They left the west coast some time ago after the once golden state showed sings of having a gold coating over a lead base.

At the eye doctor this morning I had my eyes dilated and did not think much about it, things seemed fine. When I walked outside into the sunlight I was blinded by the light! Had I not had a pair of Joyce’s sunglasses in the car I could not have made the short trip to home. When I got home and told Joyce about that, her reply was welcome to my world. Later this morning Joyce said, “I love you Bill.” That made me feel very good and at the same time posed a question that is impossible to answer. I love her, but the question is this: how can a couple ever really know who loves who more than the other person? We cannot actually see into another person’s brain, so we have to make an assumption. Think about that for a moment if you will and if you have an answer that I do not, let me know.
