This evening I went to pick up my sister. The sun was setting as I left the neighborhood and it hit me right in the eyes. I couldn't see a thing. Seriously, it was scary. I drove slower until I could really see around me, then continued on my way. It hit me that I hadn't had a case of "sun-blindness" (that's a thing. I just created it) that bad since I drove submarines at Disneyland. We used to pull into dock as the sun was going down and you couldn't see the sub in front of you or the right place to park. It was pretty scary- especially with the responsibility of keeping 40ish people safe. Remembering that made me get all emotional. Seriously? Emotional because the sun was in my eyes and I missed Disneyland? CRAZY! I found it hilarious that I reacted that way, so I then had a giggle fest. Why be sad about missing that time in my life? It was a wonderful gift that I never have to forget or give away! What a blessing! I loved remembering those fun times and am so glad that in some weird way I could relive them. :) Tootles!
