I kept waking up and going back to sleep then waking up again dreaming all the while. I finally got up about 3:20 p.m. I went to Starbucks. My mom called when I just got there- I'd asked if I could come over and practice crocheting like I did yesterday. She said I can tomorrow. It was the first time I'd crocheted in my adult life. I could do simple chains as a kid
But yesterday, just getting the chain straight was a big deal! It kept getting twisted! I did manage do do several links in a straight row! I'd asked my mom to show me how to crochet. She said she taught herself to crochet when she was pregnant with me- no YouTube videos on how! We did find a YouTube video on the basics. So many things to think of at once! And my mom would pull out all the stitches I'd done and start me over because the chain was twisted. I just want to be able to make a blanket before my mom dies. She could live another 20 years or die in 1 month. You just never know.

I took a shower with my contacts in this evening. When I was shampooing my hair a bunch of suds went into my left eye. Pain! I tried rinsing with the clean shower water but contacts don't like plain water- they tend to stick to the eyeball- what the eye wants is saline or natural tears. So I took out the contacts and threw them out. It was about time for new ones anyway. I'm wearing my glasses and my eye is still talking with me a little bit.
