Whew.
Figured out how to remove the Headliner from the Van. It's magic, I tell you... magic. Evil, finger biting magic. Just like some folk.
What else... Ran over town to pay ONE bill, went looking for some of these retainers that I once say many years ago that clip over a panel, and have little hooks on them to catch the fabric so it doesn't slip off. Don't know what the heck I'm talking about? Try to explain that to a hardware store guy... Yeah, and I don't even have an example to show him, her or it. I guess I could fabricate some out of paperclips. I'll only need about 2 or 3 hundred of them. Well... maybe less, depending. OR... I might just try to see if some fabric store has headliner material. Just cuz I'm curious.
aaaannnndd... umm.. bought bread. That's about it. Now, I'm sitting at my desk, trying to focus my old eyes. Tomorrow, at 08:45 I have a dr. appointment with my favorite Optometrist. A funny guy. We were going to play the lead rolls in the Sunshine Boys because our Yiddish is about on par with each others. Then, as always, life got in the way. I'm debating on frames or rimless or just magical eyeballs. I think the Magical Eyeballs may be a stretch though. Darned expensive. And it's at 8:45 in the morning, when I'll be lucky if I can focus on anything, period.
And that is one of the reasons I haven't written more story. One of the reasons. Kinda hard to detail the things in your head when you're fighting the nagging feeling that your eyes just can't see any more.
So... I got coffee brewing. I got a Mikes Hard next to me. I got ELO on the tunebox, and I'm gonna give that writing thing another shot.
There are Stories to write, and promises to keep, and many, many miles before I sleep.
Hugs, kids. Blessings on your successes!

Date: 2008-08-25 11:28 pm (UTC)I've gradually been losing the focus for quite a while and for some reason the computer screen just keeps getting closer to me so I can see it without having blurry letters. I figure when my forehead bumps the screen it's time for action!
