Well beer comes in 12oz cans.
One at a time, say 3 per hour x 8 = 1 slab.
Sounds like a good duty cycle and very little strain, until the wife intervenes...

At this point all I can see is light and dark. I found it interesting that the current focal point in that eye allows me to see the dust on my glasses lens.
When I get a little better organized here I foresee a lot of reloading getting done. While I'm stuck here I'll try to get some stuff done around the house; new floors, etc. I'm considering this a test drive for retirement. And retirement got pushed back 6 to 12 months at least.
Thanks for the support folks! I appreciate your comments!

Light and dark - looks like we will need reports often. Sounds like you are already going stir crazy with all the work you plan! Don't get too ambitious.

Yup...You need to practice being retired. It is an "art form" you know.

Bushy, when I do retire I hope to do some travelling. I'll try to swing by for some lessons from the master.

Doc says everything looks good and I can resume "normal" activity in a month. Will still take 5 - 6 weeks for vision to clear. I think shooting .22s is normal, isn't it?

Most eye injuries respond to time mate, although like all injuries, there will be a “scar” of some sort and you most likely won’t go back to 100% as I found with my eye when I had the tiny bleed in the back that buckled the macular.
Shooting anything is normal mate...even an air rifle.
