I realized I was on my Ipad and computer at work, if I was on the go, I was looking at my phone screen. Then, when I get home, I’m on my computer. I was trying not to use the computer. Then, when I tried to find a number for the optometrist, I had to…use the computer. Funny how we rely on them now for everything. I’m glad the doctor didn’t recommend not using a computer at all for awhile…seems impossible. Those drops are doing the trick too. :wink: ---

> [@GregP](#): > > Dang… I gotta do that “look away from the monitor” thing. I don’t do it often enough. Thanks for the warning; sorry it came at the expense of some worry and discomfort! I should do it too. I usually look away every few minutes, but my eyes go straight from the computer screen to the TV screen :🙂 ---

> [@beherenow](#): > > Ouch is right! Eat some carrots too! 🙂 Actually, I have some carrots left over from some beef stew I made this week. I love carrots, and I can eat them raw and plain. I love dip too though. ;D I’ll be sure to eat plenty of them. I’m back up to no good, but my eyes feel much better, and I’m taking those breaks. I’m going to put my old camera on my BST. I’d sell it to anyone here for $30 shipped. It only has auto white balance, and needs a new battery, as the two I have are not holding a full charge anymore. Otherwise, it is a great camera for everyday use. Olympus FE-340 8MP. Anyone interested can send me a PM. I put it up on Ebay too for a bit more though. Includes everything, the manual, 2 batteries (what’s left of them), charger, and a 128MB memory card. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/5/c/b5c8035d27c90ff97de994fab276ab38b00a0987.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/3/b/b3b22697eca5663e714945ec88143bd89849581e.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/2/d/42d4e1a6215c1ec7c96f02551d0b0655c69d547c.jpeg) Oh, and augmentedloyalty…nice post, I’m digging the effect on the second one. :wink: ---

That was really nice of him to take those shots. Looks good, but you should have worn purple and green. It would have stood out nice against that backdrop too 🙂 ---
