Cologuard and eye doctor visit

A continuation of my annual physical was taking (and sending in) a Cologuard Test. Apparently I get a free one every three years. Mine arrived last week and I sent it back on Thursday. It's not the most enjoyable of things, but it beats having a full-blown colonoscopy. This is the second time I've done one.

Also, today we both had eye exams. We went to Eye Specs on Main. It's just a block over from Jane's office, and she had been there once before. This was my first time there. We both needed a slight adjustment to our prescription, which meant we both needed new glasses. I am terrible at making most any decision, and especially so when it comes to eye glasses. The ladies were very helpful though, and I just went with the one's Jane liked the best. Maybe I will share a pic when they come in. We'll see (pun intended)!

My eyes are just beginning to get back to normal after the pupil dilation. That's always the worst part - other than having to answer "Which one looks better, this one... or that one?" Sometimes I don't really know, but today I felt pretty confident of all my selections. I also have a little cataract forming, but nothing to worry about yet (I guess).

Now I suppose I should make a dentist appointment. It's been... awhile for me. Ugh. I don't really like someone putting their hands in my mouth...
