It's all gone fuzzy

Ten days after ordering them, I picked up my new contact lenses. All seemed well until a couple of hours later when I picked up the Radio Times and found I couldn't read the print. I thought perhaps I just needed to get used to my new contacts, but this morning, I still couldn't manage to read a thing. So off to the optician's I went...only to be told that age had crept up on me and I now needed reading glasses. No real explanation as to how come this problem had only come to the fore with my new contacts while I had had no such problems shifting between the near and far distance with my old set -- just pay extra and order variable focus lenses...and then hope that my eyes can adjust to them. In the meantime, I'll just have to get used to this fog that seems to settle over everything that's not in the middle distance and beyond.

Woke up this morning and my arm and shoulder felt good as new. I had no problems getting dressed or picking up the coffee pot, so I cancelled my doctor's appointment. I've no idea what made it hurt like a mother for 6 days, but I'm glad that whatever it was seems to have gone away again.
