- friends and family
- good health
- summer activities and quiet walks
- my current ATF (very good chemistry and I enjoy our occasional extended dates)

I'm grateful for the few weeks spent with family and friends before starting my new challenge ... But it means less entertainment for the month to come lol

Wow quel belle température cet été
Beaucoup de vélo et plaisir nautique
J'aime notre ville malgré ces nombreux défauts
Beaucoup de plaisir avec mes nouvelles amies
Beaucoup de golf avec mon garçon qui est rendu meilleur que son père
Je m'éloigne de ce hobby mais je continue à rendre visite sur merb
J'espère que vous profitez tous des plaisirs de l'été

I am really blessed to live alone even if it's not always easy

I had a great day on the lake yesterday.
Ended up with cozy time around campfire with good people.
Life is beautiful

Another great vacation day. Taking time for myself, only me!

I'm grateful that I have enough work right now to be able to avoid social media and forums this summer! I've been fairly busy since June, but I thought people would forget about me if I didn't constantly post.. Protecting your energy is one of the most important things to do in this industry

To technology and science for letting me get an eye intervention without going blind. My eyesight is better than ever! And it barely took three minutes. It's unbelievable.

As we say in French I'm as blind as a mole lol

But always hesitated doing it because it's not permanent?
And now that I am aging I recently have Presbyopia ...

I have done it around 15 years ago. Vision is still good. The absence of fog on glasses when doing sport is probably what I am the most grateful for.

It might be, it might not...

Et il y a une autre intervention pour la prespytie, qui est lié à l'âge et non pas une déformation de l'oeil. Mais j'ai pris les retouches Lasik à vie pour les problèmes que j'avais, donc ce n'est pas permanent mais si ma vision baisse encore assez dans les même problématiques que j'avais, ils pourront le refaire gratuitement. Ça se peut que j'aie à le refaire une, deux, trois fois... Peut-être jamais.

Les consultations sont gratuites, et ils te donnent vraiment toute l'info selon ta et tes problématiques! Si j'avais eu à payer pour une consultation je n'y aurais même jamais songé...

I never dared going for it. Nowadays I work at my desk, so it's not much of an issue, but a few years back I was doing AV installations, and having to deal with glasses when you have your head against the wall to pull or plug a f**in wire behind a TV was horrible.

philonius · Aug 10, 2025

It's funny bc 15-20 years ago I was counting the days until I could afford LASIK. I was an everyday contacts user but then I was told I had to switch to glasses for a little bit bc due to an irritation and I never looked back. Now I wouldn't get it if you paid me to bc I don't like the way my head looks without glasses lol.

I'm sure you are absolutely adorable in your glasses. (I'm a geek/nerd myself, I think glasses can give their own esthetic to a personal look.)
I'm a contacts user. And so the wrong way too. But has worked fine for me for a long time now. I like my look with glasses too. But I feel so blind when I take them off, that I am good with my contacts.

I know with technology things have improved, but I am also informed of side effects, and not every story is a success story. As long as what I have is working. I'm going to enjoy rocking it.
