As I walked the long walk to the dialysis center on my way to visit a friend it occurred to me that I have gone years without sunglasses. In other words, I have allowed myself to squint, grow wrinkles, get headaches and possibly sun damage my eyes for no good reason.

I like sunglasses. I have just never taken the time or spent the money on a good pair.

So that’s the behavioral change I’m instilling in January.
