Need to Un-Whine

I've had difficulty feeling comfortable skiing, which is pretty standard for me.  Boots are heavy, skis are heavy, clothes are heavy.  And I'm the only person who's still wearing a one-piece ski suit.  I noticed that a year or two ago--one pieces just disappeared.  Not sure why, but I finally told my family this was the last year for mine--hard to keep the sleeves from falling on the ground when you go to the bathroom; feels somewhat restricting when I try to stand up straight.  But my biggest whining had to do with seeing--ever since I stopped being able to wear contacts (dry eyes) I've had much more difficulty seeing while I'm skiing.  Last year I made the mistake of bringing my glasses that automatically turn dark in the sun (I forget what that's called).  The glare of the snow makes the glasses turn dark, even when it's not sunny.  So last year I was caught in a storm where I literally could not see--glasses turned nearly black, can't see with or without them, whiteout snow conditions.  I could tell which way was down, and that was it.

So this year I didn't make that mistake, but I still have trouble with fogging when it's snowing and I'm trying to ski.  Glasses fog under the goggles, so I can't wear the goggles, which protect my eyes and cut down on glare.  So I whined about that--kept reapplying Cat Crap, which is supposed to help but doesn't when it's snowing.  I decided to take a day off from skiing (yesterday) to un-whine.

Fortunately, it didn't snow today so I could wear the goggles over the glasses without either fogging up.  But next year I may try to get contacts to wear for skiing--without the bifocals, which don't work for me anyway.  And I'm definitely getting a new (two piece) ski outfit.   But I'll stick with Spyder; my one-piece is very warm and has some nice features.  For a one-piece
