Cory Again

Do you ever have days where you feel you are just frittering them away even if you aren’t? Today was one of those. I did do all our Costco shopping by myself. Shelly wasn’t up to joining me. He’s okay but he was having a weird vision day. I think we figured out why. When he wakes from a strongly visual dream, he keeps seeing the dreamscape until what he sees around him slowly comes in. I had an idea why this morning. Even though he only sees a small area in the middle of his left yet - the right eye is blind - his brain makes a full picture filling in as much as it can based on how much he has moved his eyes to gather more information. The rest it makes up. So I think when he wakes from a dream his brain keeps the vivid dream image until Shelly’s eyes bring in enough information to make what he sees fit what’s around him. So this morning he needed help navigating the house while his vision returned to real life. Some days this takes awhile. Today was one of those. Most days it doesn’t even happen. It probably depends on what he was dreaming.

But I digress. After I shopped and napped the rest of the day seemed like puttering even though I did do some useful things and played some games on my phone.

The only photo I took was of Cory.
