At what point will I listen to myself and focus on one thing at a time?
I started a freelance legal transcription job, which actually takes a lot of time. For every 15 minutes or so of audio, it takes approximately an hour to transcribe. It probably takes me longer because I’m a perfectionist (not always a good thing) and I want every word captured; every comma, every pause. And this is in addition of me already working ~10 hour days at my full time job, where I’m actually employed. I’m still trying to fit steno practice in each day, which has been inconsistent this past week and a half. And somewhere in between all this, I’m supposed to eat dinner, clean my home, self-care, and spend time with Oreo. I always have the mindset that I can overcome any challenge that comes my way, or that I always have time to fit one thing here or there – but it’s not always a good trait. I have felt my vision changing this past week. I think my astigmatism changed, for better or worse – I can’t tell, but it’s difficult to focus on anything completely anymore when I’m wearing my contact lenses. But as I’m writing this, that I don’t have the same issue with my glasses that I’m currently wearing. So perhaps my vision has improved, which would be great because that would be the first time in – say – 15 or so years? I’ll find out soon enough tomorrow anyways. I’m scheduled for a consult for the EVO ICL procedure. And I really, honestly, hope it works and that I can get it done the same day (probably impossible since they would need to design the ICL). I can’t wait for the day that I’m no longer hindered by glasses or contacts.
If you have any experiences with ICL, let me know! I’ve love to learn more about it before my cornea gets cut into.
