Hot flashing during the dog walk is the *worst*.
Benson is just trundling along, acting like he doesn't understand why he's outside, and sweat is popping out all over my face and chest.
I haven't had a hot flash in months!
Ugh. I'm damp.

Eye exam today.
Cataracts are beginning to take shape. I'm getting more far-sighted.(My eye doctor said, It's natural as we grow *wiser.*
Nice reframe, doc.)
But my eyes are generally healthy and I should have new glasses after Christmas! I might need to see an ophthalmologist about what's happening with my peripheral field. Oh well.

I fell asleep on the couch and maaaan...that felt so good.
Like I was floating.
I was in the perfect position.
Heat broke.
Dog snoring.
Breeze through the window.That right there was perfection.
Gotdammit.

Random birthday moments:
Lunch in Benicia with Bestie and some excellent thrifting.
Long misty morning sniffari with the doggo!
Bought a nifty cane with a flask inside! Weird but whatever.
Had good morning calls!
Joyfriend dynamic successfully shifted downward! (More about this later)
Had some advice about my dad's trust!
Kept my Duolingo streak going!
All in all, 55 is hitting softer.
And I'm ok with that. -
Last year, for my birthday, I told the Heauxtation to give me Treats. They came through with massages, cocktails, back blowage, and various shenanigans.
This year, I'm asking for specific Treats: a fancy ass charcuterie board/box, aka Adult Lunchables.
I want to spend my 55th relaxing, being middle-aged, and eating fancy meats and cheeses on crackers.
