That's the biggest reason I declined anesthesia when I had cataract surgery.I had issues like that. Takes awhile to wear off.

It's all in the perspective. While growing up in Greece for 17 years I remember snow twice. The first time i was a toddler and, years later, my parents still talked about the 2-3 inches that fell and paralyzed the city for days!Follks where I live in the Deep South have a totally different outlook on snow. One week recently we had snow forcast for a few hours for one day. The schools declared an impending disaster and dismissed classes for the following days; businesses closed and very somberly admonished the departing employees "be careful out there"; hospitals and clinics and doctors offices closed early and put out notices about not being at work for 3 days and last but not least these same folks hit the grocery stores and cleared the shelves! Snow shovels, blowers, generators...........you name it.....they bought it. Oh yeah. I left out the focasted snow amount..........less than .5".
Thank you for sharing these links! You always come thru with the perfect info for us! These are invaluable!FYI:

I knew I wanted to do it, but was having a hard time getting the procedure & safety info into my head. Before it would have been a snap.
I can definitely relate to that. I no longer learn new things easily. I can't even blame anesthesia. As a partial excuse, I do think most written instructions are written for people who already know how to do whatever it is that is being described.
The night before last we had some freezing mist/rain. I was sitting here at my desk having my morning coffee and was hearing what sounded like small hail. I went outside and it was ice breaking off of the tree limbs. My dog hated it because small pieces of ice were dropping on her while she was trying to do her morning business. I'm a bad papa, I couldn't stop laughing at her growling at the ice dropping.
I agree. But I now have trouble focusing or consintrating on a subject. I used to read constantly. I always had a book or 2 in progress & always had 1 with me. Since the surgeries that stopped & makes me really sad.I can definitely relate to that. I no longer learn new things easily. I can't even blame anesthesia.

Have a good one!I hope it's a good day for all.
Nononono! That is a nightmare. We are in the 30's for the next few days & are huddled down at home. I'm just glad I got home from pet sitting before the bottom fell out!.When I see snow closings (either the funny panics of our southern folks, or the slightly "realer" panics of my midwestern neighbors) it reminds me of the winter I spent at Michigan Tech ('61-'62) when they had 317" (that's 26 feet or 8 meters) of snow on the ground by March (when I quit school - they had more before the end of winter). For some examples check out these pics:

Here's an example:

BTW, "normal" winter totals for Houghton are in the 200 inch range.
