Bifocals, bikes and beaches

I went to the eye doctor this week. I know, I am getting old and so are my eyes. I don't have perfect vision anymore. However, I had very "healthy" eyes and got a prescription for reading glasses, which would only be optional. However, the problem with glasses that you do not wear all the time, is that it is easy to loose them. I have a habit of loosing things, so I am not sure that you will see me with glasses anytime soon. Well, maybe now when I do have my lightning bolt scar in my forehead and with round glasses, I can turn in to Harry Potter. I am pretty good at making things disappear. I also fulfilled on of my goals of the summer this week. I biked to work. I have always wanted to do that. It is about 10 miles and it took me close to an hour. My knee was hurting a bit but it was amazing!! Yes, the bike ride down to work along the lake shore is so beautiful, seeing the sun go up and other crazy healthy people out there on the path getting a morning workout before work. it was great. The ride did more for my spirits than physically I think, since my knee was stopping me from peddling very fast.. In fact, I think at one point some runners past me on the path. Today I biked down and hung out at the beach with was so great. The weather is so great right now. The humidity is finally gone so it is pleasant to be outside. My favorite time of year.. I am not ready for winter yet so I hope this weather is here to stay for a couple of weeks.
