109 this cloudy morning.

The high was 55° yesterday, today's forecast is 55°/32° with small chance of some rain this afternoon.

I have been so tired the last few days, this morning I slept until after 10AM which is very unusual, don't know what is up with that.

Wally, I sure hope you can get some relief soon.

OK this is really weird. Tonight after I put in my after dinner drops I am seeing much better without my glasses watching TV, still a little fuzzy on the computer. With glasses vision is a bit blurry w/out much clearer even w/out right eye done. Wow a big change in a day! Don't know what to think.

That's great. It could be the lens settling down and not the drops, though you would know best.

I tried to post earlier this morning but the site was glitchy and every time I hit post it gave me a "page not found" error but it seems to be OK now.

85 this morning.  We only got to 71° yesterday with wind but the Sierras got about a foot of new snow from the system so it did some good there.  It's going to start warming up now and we will be back in the 80s probably starting tomorrow.
Glad you are seeing improvement Barbara.  Yeah, your new lens is set for distance vision and that distance is from a few feet to infinity.  Like you said I can watch the TV without glasses but I need glasses for my computer and close up like my phone or tablet.  I can drive without glasses and use regular sun glasses outdoors or driving.  I don't like to have to carry a pair of glasses around just for reading and have to take them off and on so I have glasses that are bi-focal and the upper part is non correcting and the bottom part is for close.  That way I wear my glasses all the time and don't have to take them off and on.  I don't mind wearing glasses and this works for me.

120 this partly cloudy morning.

55° was the high again yesterday, today looks to be about the same with forecast of 55°/32°.

Yes, you may be right skb, that the lense is settling down making my vision better. Right now my glasses are trifocal with the coating that turns them into sunglasses when outside maybe I won't need the trifocal after the second surgery? Just will have to wait and see I guess.

Could be server issues, though if there was some maintenance going on, I have not been informed by the hosting company.

Yeah SKB, probably something like that.  When I came back about 2 hours later all was working just fine. 
85 this morning.  We got to 76° yesterday and heading to 80° today.  It is bright and sunny with no wind, a pretty nice day.  We are going to be in the 80s for a few days.
I am really liking this new keyboard.  It is a Logitech G613 and it is so easy to use.  The keys are very positive and don't have the loud click some mechanical keys have.  My old keyboard was probably getting worn out and some of the keys would stick and you thought you had printed a letter but it didn't take and I had to go back all of the time and redo.  This so much better.

Great. Maybe I will give it a try as well when I go for a replacement.

It's 7 am in the morning here and already 85o and during the day we will be touching around 100o. May will be much worse. By mid June monsoons will set in and then things will get a little better with each day.

96 this morning.  We were just under the predicted high of 80° at 79°, close enough.  Heading to 85° today.  Certainly hotter where you are SKB, right now at 7:00 AM we are at 58° and well under 100° foe a high but in a month or so we will probably be seeing 100°+ highs.

That is really cool weather. More to my liking for sure.

How is the covid situation there now ? In my state masks are not mandatory from April 1st but in many parts of the country they still are. India is currently reporting about 12-15k cases each day, up from about 2.5k a few days ago, but nothing alarming as yet.

106 this morning.  We got to 84° yesterday and heading to 88° today.  This is where I like it.
Covid in my area has dropped a lot and masks are not required in most places.  Most medical facilities still require a mask and individual businesses are not required to make a mask necessary but they can. 
I am posting early this morning, 5:20 AM right now.  Leaving in a couple of min. fir a biopsy of a nodule on my thyroid.

87 this cloudy morning.

It got to 69° yesterday, today's forecast is 57°/35° with small possibility of rain showers.

Covid cases down a lot here only 16 cases right now in my county. I still wear a mask whenever I go out and they are required at the dr and hospital.

Hope all goes well Wally with the biopsy, no cancer!

Finished the eye drops yesterday glad that is done for now. 3 more weeks of them after right eye is done.

One of my boxes didn't arrive yesterday so not going out today, will do my errands tomorrow. I'm pathetic...

Glad to hear that. Vision will be a lot better with both the eyes taken care of.

Wally, the very best for the procedure.
