I’m borderline hypoglycemic. I get floaters a lot too. With diabetics it’s worse.

I *wish* I had a job I could go to and then -leave-.

I work here running our home business.

On call 24/7/365.

[and the pay *sucks*]

Usually, while on these threads, I’m also answering product inquiries, tweaking web sites, examining web stats, etc etc etc.

Ugh.

My only “vacation/time off” is when the ISP crashes and I can’t get online...LOL!

Reckon it’s time to get back in the art studio and finish the renovations.

Later.
