Dr Copa

This morning my wife told me that she wants to make an appointment with an eye doctor as soon as she can. She says that she is seeing a lot of black spots in her left eye. She thought that at first it was just dirty eyeglass lenses, and she kept trying to take off her glasses and clean the lenses. Then she would put the glasses back on and get annoyed that the spots were still there! Finally she started looking around the room while cleaning her glasses and noticed that the spots were still there – in her eyes, and not in her glass lenses! She has seen some floaters before, but she doesn’t remember seeing this many of them, so she is concerned that maybe she has a detached retina. I told her that I thought that the doctor would just tell her that she is over-using her eyes and need more rest. I think that he will give her eye drops to put into her eyes, and in a few days she will feel better.  Anyway, I think she is overdue for an eye exam anyway, so I told her to make an appointment soon – we need to keep her eyes in good shape!

My wife and I have been thinking about taking up golfing.  My wife says she used to play golf before we met, but she quit playing when she became pregnant with her last son (prior marriage.)  Something about working full time, taking college classes and raising a family left her precious little time to play golf!  Well now the kids are grown and I’d like take her on a vacation – just the two of us. 

My doctor has recommended that I get more exercise, and my wife seems to think that I would enjoy learning how to play golf.  She has been talking to her brother about the possibility of him and his wife, and us, signing up for a Myrtle Beach Golf Package.  Myrtle Beach is close enough for us to drive to in a day, and there are a lot of Golf Packages Myrtle Beach options that we could choose from.  We could sign up for one of the Myrtle Beach Golf Vacations where we combine golfing with a hotel room, or we could stay with friends that live nearby and just sign up for tee times.
