A Cold and Chilly Tuesday…

Last night was the night of memories!  After a nice long run (3 miles is long in my book) it was time to start pulling out the Christmas decorations.  I have to say first though that during my jog my glasses bounced up and down on my face and made it not as pleasant as my usual workouts with my contacts.  They were just a nuisance that once I have lasik I will not have to worry about.  Thank goodness!

Well next it was on the the Christmas decorations.  My hubby shared the joys of many of the memories as well.  I always get a Christmas ornament on every vacation or place that we visit and over the years have collected many ornaments.  A tradition that I learned… Well, these ornaments that we placed on our tree brought back so many wonderful memories, memories that would of been different if I would of had the lasik procedure done about 3 years ago!  From snorkeling in Mexico…fishing in Hawaii…hiking the waterfalls of Kauai…hiking the mountains of New Mexico…late night shows and gambling in sin city Las Vegas…snow skiing the mountain tops of Angle Fire and Taos…water skiing the lakes of Pennsylvania…and touring the fast paced life of New York…and many many more memories it is amazing what we do with our family and friends.  If you don’t have a keepsake like my ornaments or pictures all these memories will get lost.  The reason why I bring up all these memories is because with lasik each of these would of been a different experience for me.  I wouldn’t of been worried about losing a contact when snorkeling, water skiing, or snow skiing!  With lasik I wouldn’t of had irritated eyes from late nights in Vegas or falling asleep on the beautiful beach with my contacts in.  There are so many things that would of been changed if I did not have glasses and contacts.  As we discussed each of these memories we discussed my upcoming lasik procedure and how much I have to look forward to!  I look forward to new memories and getting to do things and explore new adventures that I once was held back by glasses and contacts.

As you go through your pictures and decorate your Christmas tree this holiday I hope you think about how your life can be changed by lasik as well.  So…what do you think?

Have a great day and stay warm!
