Unfortunately based on a true story:
I had another surprise hit me that I didn’t see coming. (Ha ha) I developed a reaction to the plastic on my eyeglass frames. It has become so painful that I have stopped wearing them. The catch is that my vision is something like 20/1000 without them.
Before I begin a serious search for hypo-allergenic frames, I am starting an eye exercise program that is supposed to improve or even fix a person’s vision. It would be great if it worked so I didn’t need glasses anymore.
In the meantime, don’t worry if Bitey Dog seems a bit fuzzy or my typing is worse than usual. It is just me getting used to my natural eyes.

Does this mean you can’t see me getting into trouble now?

If you haven’t spent all of your Amazon gift card money yet, consider ordering a copy of Dream Our World. In it, Bitey and Toby go on an adventure to the Museum of the Imagination and view the world of art from a canine perspective.
Dream Our World is available from Amazon…and soon at a museum!
The Adventures of Bitey Dog 
It’s 2020, a good year to hope for better vision! Tell us more about those eye exercises. And in the meantime, two words: wire frames.
Thank you for the good wishes! Actually, my frames are wire. They are titanium. From looking briefly online, I have found nearly all wire frames have plastic coating on the sides. I also have to be careful of metals because I can react to them as well. Being me is complicated. : – (
I hope you find some good frames, that don’t cause pain, soon. That must be awful. 😦
HA! Your unfortunately-true-story made me snort-laugh! 😀 😛
Cooper loves the snow and has such short legs he gets covered in it when he tries to walk in just few inches of snow. It’s cute, though. 😀
HA! Yes, sometimes it’s best when Human-Beans don’t see what our pooches are doing…and probably visa-versa for them! 😉 😮 😀
HUGS!!! PATS!!! and RUBS!!! 🙂
Does Cooper “swim” in deep snow? Geordie used to look like he was doing the doggie paddle.
Now I know better not to rub Toby dry after an early morning romp.
Cooper do! 🙂
oh my word! I, too, am blind as a bat without glasses. I take it contacts are not an option?
Since I react to plastics, I am afraid that contacts or artificial corneas may end up causing me to have problems as well.
well, duh, I should have thought of that. So sorry!
Don’t feel bad. A life with allergies can be insanely complicated.
About 6 years ago, I suddenly developed an allergy to nuts. It’s a joy!
What a joy that must be. Were nuts your favorite food?
Did you know pistachios are related to poison ivy? Guess how I know.
no, but i do miss peanut butter. I make a rockin peanut butter fudge that is thoroughly enjoyed by everyone but me
Aw, I am sorry about the fudge. Memories aren’t enough when it comes to goodies.
I make it, I smell it, I sigh and give it away. I do miss peanut butter cups, though
I know that feeling. They were one of my favorites too. I keep telling myself that on the other side, I am going to eat EVERYTHING.
I once said to my Uncle John, as we both wiped butter from our chins after a lovely meal of fresh corn on the cob, “If there’s no corn in Heaven, I’m not going.”
Ah, that would make a great Twilight Zone.
