MY EYES ARE DIM (IP) True

new Silver-Spun-Sand Hi! tina,hope your well. Thanks for lovely good comment. I may have mentioned part of it somewhere! before, but not as a poem form? It was quite while back! You can imagine being though with a kind of unbelieving husband. What? he would say. Felt a fool,persevere alway's words from Ray in anything. Can't have too many carrots! I had one presse from someone been on holiday came back,pack dried Apricots,Ray stands them in water bit of lemon juice and sugar ugh! No delicious and softer and they work? Better than screw missing! Ray tighten up it,or our lense drop out,funny think one can't see, or realise lense not there,Ray fix again! But would you adam and eve it,when went and mentioned to further regular opticians they did the same. So keep getting reminder's not been. Both have two pairs of glasses. Surprising places we leave them. Need a little bell on. Age! Tell me of your experience tina. We both say "have you seen my glasses". Once they were on top my head. Tops of toilets, pick up his so large when on? Funny! But when have glasses first time out,hot drinks steamed them all up? couldn't get used to them. Poem's not at it's best really. Couldn't make it rhyme. julie x

new gerardineanne Thanks glad you liked, wish wasn't true! Tell me your experience! Sound as if it's common. Got six comments. Back usual optiicians I mention it,happened too! not so bad. Haven't been few years now! Never have contact lenses, friend we knew searching for little tiny thing on carpet! All sounds funny! but first time very very scary Truly thought then eyesight got worse but there mistake. If you have an experience tell me? Thanks comment. julie x.

new ScoZen Hello! Well that is the (IP) for this week, So remembered my scary experience! Spectacle test! It happened a young lad marked form up! But happened again after mentioning at my regular opticians,feel so daft going back to say is mistake! I ask myself they wouldn't do so? Ray has been, we often have a screw loose? Ray tighten's them up. Or both have two pairs of spectacles,each. Need a bell on if put down seeing one's can't move much till find. suddenly we find the lense has dropped out! Think your eyesight going at first! Or he won't put his spectacles into case I pick them up, stupidly put them on, strength and size well beyond mine! Go on laugh! good for one. Have you a tale of experience of spectacles tell me please! julie x

new Blessing Hi! Well trying answer six comments, so far lovely lovely funny comments like them! But at the time I was so scared, couldn't believe that could happen! We both have lenses fall out! Makes eyesight feel can't see! Screw loose,NO you know what I mean? Ray will screw spectacles up. Or we move suddenly! lense drops out! As (IP) on spectacles or making a spectacle, I have a few things that would make a spectacle of myself? some might have something use for,some don't use,like parasols,fans,masks! if needed. I do the things i've done! or tried. But people like! strange,daren't think of age! woudn't do a thing! We leave glasses on top of the toilet,or ledges,shelves have two pairs each,Ray has just had eye test bit stronger for glasses. I get reminders not been few years. We know friend on contact lenses,hunting on the floor whatever for? he dropped one contact lense so small,made me laugh! awful see looking on a floor such a tiny thing! Bottoms in the air,on carpet or floor so funny! at first. I will never have contact lenses. Go on laugh! good for you or all. Tell me go one of your experience then spectacles. julie x

Well it was very scary the first time. Few years back,saw the (IP) Spectacles or don't make a spectacle of oneself! Remembered this,not into poem effect yet! Just wouldn't believe it could happen! I can laugh! now. Happened later at regular options after mentioning it, but was ready know what it was? Ray looses his and me,bot have two pairs spectacles each. Once left on top toilet,or shelves or buy bed. Or put on his not in the case,huge! and stronger. I shout! "have you seen my seeing spectacles Ray" help look! not so bad if it's reading ones! Can't go out till find seeing ones! Maybe a bell round my neck! or contact somewhere! any ideas. I never have contact lenses, most on the floor or carpet looking! for one contact lenses! Bottoms up year's ago so funny! Ah! Carrots! what my late mum always said make you see in the dark! cabbage make your hair curl! is that right! Not too many carrots good for me? Duie eyesight test not been few years! If a screw loose! laugh? Ray fixes it. I often p[ut my foot in it! well know saying for me? Bye the way,what man? would fix up flu jab! I knew he had to go,thought morning? ugh! Strange what one can do? had thtree weeks strained shoulder etc; 10 minutes before going onto a snooker match? when already pulled should jerk of a bus! see dr. And me problem too, healed up thank goodness! Get up get to door,slam breaks on, good job where holding on! A very happy new year to you and all.

New hilary west Hi! Glad you enjoyed the pun' but the (IP) this week is on 'spectacles' brought back me thinking about, how awful and scary this was too,ever happen. Well if you have two pair,then know how difficult it can be,and msiplacing or forget where! they are, we both have two pairs of spectacles. Lost the last comment to you! There is a song you may know? "My eyes are dim I cannot see I have not brought my specs with me I have not brought my specs with me 'There was Kelly kelly' eating all the jelly in the cold masters store repeat 'Mye eyes are dim I cannot see etc; I suppose some experiences we can learn by,some so unusal now! Teeth need doing,not been three years owing moan about oneout,put on a plate too tight,thought loosen it? Mine paid? got home surprise1 surprise! no tooth there? Course never went back,now re-tired. Won't go till have too. And a hearing aid that squeals. So I am quite faulty! Have a nice day. Have you any strange experiences happen. Quite a few comments coming in on this! and have experienced similiar happenings? I remember when in office one mistake on 12 sheets carbon copy,then had do the whole lot again. Not a professional typists. Knew shorthand a bit, only my kind way, read it back. Someone taught me horse's head then, all mean't strokes,in shorthand clever. Dull old day here to-day! julie xx

new StanTheMan Glad made you smile.It was very scary. But mine Ray,wouldn't believe, till I kept telling him the outcome! Got to read more of your's. Thanks for the good comment. We have both known,lenses to fall out! So funny in a way! One definitely thinks the eyes are worse then. Especially without the chin on ablock! julie x

new gerardinanne Hello! so sorry to hear of your mum now being registered blind,must be very hard to take! Thank goodness in a way we don't drive, and have no car! But mine had three accidents on a motor-bike,damn things! Never pased his test in years. Well street lamps are so dim to at night. In places near by treet stumps bad really. Thanks comments. julie x

new Hilary west just answered your lovely comment. Readt to post my comment,lost it all. No don't watch soaps much now,seem repeat smae things like one get's married,then another soap does,or someone is ill so on. Go now more for 'Jeremy Irons' pressee from Ray at xmas,bit scary and violent,sexual well planned, 'Jeremy Iron's take part 'The Pope' brilliantly acted, time of 'The Borgias' and mention poison rings! Which typed comment,lost, had 2nd hand one my belated pop! Nursed him in late aged 5O's and after became more like a poison ring, I wore at the time, had a hinge on and opened. So done a poem called 'My Beautiful Ring' but was pleased the way I could try and write it? definitely had mystic attachments to it,not good! I adored but told had get rid of. He would sit and use as a crystal ball, once mum walked out after many years! Makes one think. 'Jeremy Irons' wears them on his fingers like in dvd. brilliant actor. Met by chance stubbing a cigarette out in front us,on platform, 'Gatwick Express' comes in think! shouted his name,smiled and jumped on his train. Then saw 'Brideshead Revisited' and have record of 'The Mission' sad. Have a good day! julie xx

new oldpesky Oh! so kind too comment. yes,mean't to be funny! But of course not. Wish could type and write like you do! Punctuation in correct places. Just finished one,for the (IP) got lost with couple name character's who said this and that! What part capital comes and names,is it capital and apostrophe always. Thought was for another comp; entry but not got blackshoes/and prawn sandwiches in,so terminated too (IP) this week! got correct all now as well. Anyway. Think up one for comp; done one,challenge just to do one. You get the speech marks correct. And when a capital used,or if can do no capitals,every line,I see some do,confuse me again! Ray never reads mins,or daughter. I think they looke someone like a poet 'Browning'Kipling Keates. Can;t do that,just from life! and reading other, getting out seeing the wotld now too. Alert too watch? Your the one writes best humour. So many awful things in paper now,all unnerves me bit. They say snow in scotland is it. all the best julie and Ray. hope all is well for you. Well I've got cateracts,but won't ever have done. We both have two pairs of specs' alwaysa accusing who has seen them. Daughter been over hubby driving. Ray got Gt Dane a blanket market,sent photos now,him chewing in his mouth,looks really happy. Still scared of him,so big three years old,she says parent's of children ask stroke him and them take photo. Glad to hear from you. One poem be about the cat how boring again,on our doorstep twice! ah! love and all time in. Gorgeous. Magic and chat and cry! all in poem tried, massaging whoops! hope won't bore anyone. I tried once help blind and read to them,blind,but as upstairs,and have no smell,made me think couldn't been responsible enough for fire for them. Had a bit bad night but ok! Now talk tto much, all paper's and tv. but ok. So we both went see friend just for a while! two buses,bit luch in Tiffany's bit cold in there,and new hat,so cosy,different wooly over ears, knitted reasonable. Got other's but this is snug! flowers on side! nice. Quite1 a few shops are finishing? The times? Please comment on the next (IP) and cray on on 'Blackshoes/prawnsandwich when done it! all the best julie and Ray xx
