I'm not actually in a lot of pain. More like what the doctor told me hit me hard. I guess I've been lucky, i never heard any thing like that from a doc.

Apologies. I'll dial it back.

It's all good, @Harvey ... speaking from experience, it's kind of a shock to learn that we're not bulletproof. I'm trying to look at it as, I'm grateful for the adventures I've had, and I'm hoping to get a few more.

Cataract surgery was quick& pain free.
Even got a nice shoulder massage pre-op along with some type of short acting IV stuff.

Was a bit sedated but never saw a light show in my life like the one I saw from when the lens was coming out till the bionic one was in.
Holy-dadgum-dang-moly.

Nah, keep it real.

So maybe not a hundo days a year. So what? Who cares. Take it a bit easy and smell the flowers. You’ll still be skiing and probably some Nordic around the property. Just dial it back, this is getting older no matter what your plans or visions were. It’s actually pretty sweet imo. I lost a lot of my aggressive edge or need to prove anything and honestly I’ve never been more at ease in my entire life.

I've been skiing with chronic back pain for years not to mention arthritis in pelvic area. I went to get the herniated disk fixed this summer and ended up getting open heart surgery instead. My back is still screwed but I still plan to get my 30+ days in this season.
Hell I got 10 days in the year I went through chemotherapy with an anal fisher from hell... gotta tell you sitting on a chairlift was painful.

Damn, that’s hardcore.

if you love doing something do it. Yeah you may have to go about it differently but you adapt. My pain disappears after my first turn replaced with a smile.

Sitting here typing blurry eyed after first eye cataract surgery a couple days ago. Scheduled ‘em so they’ll be healed before I usually start ski season after Christmastime...
I love sparkly snow.

...ya can be the best version of ya.
When my eyeballs heal I’ll have some new cool UV blocking shades for the bluebirds days.

... I can see clearly now...

Some come back better than before.

With one new lens in comparative binary spectroscopic studies are fun.
Tis a bit like the current Bristol rocket cam colors view with the R & L sides reversed.

Taint night skied in many moons but looking forward to it if & when conditions permit.

Wow! Your cataracts were way worse than mine. I decided on surgery sooner rather than later and I’m really happy with the results. My night vision is better and I’m having fewer flat light issues than any of my friends.

Seems not as drastic as depicted above but the colors are indicative of the distinct difference.
Suppose to get the other one done if the this week’s post op checkup goes fine. So far so good.
Looked into Lasik several years ago but they said to wait till cattractks worsened.
It’s now time to getter done.

It’d be nice to get some turns in with all the nice snow outside now.
Not supposed to even drive.
Y’all can thank me for taking one for the Ullr team.
I’m a good hibernator. Think I’ll just go take another dang nap.

I had mine done in September because I wanted to be ready for opening day. An ophthalmologist friend told me that you can get lens replacement instead of Lasik now, but I would never do any surgery just to correct my eyeglass prescription.
The stuff surgeons do is crazy.

I have two sets of intuition liners for low cut boots from old merrill leathers. I put one in my T4s and it's made a big difference skiing in the woods.

Maybe skiing is the wrong word. Shuffling.
