I have terrible vision. Lee and Angela can both attest to that, they've seen the results of my eye exams! I happen to be very near sighted, so much so that I am totally dependent on my glasses and my feet barely hit the floor in the morning before I'm reaching for them. If things are up close, I'm kind of ok but from far away, everything is just a blur, l...
