I don't know how many of you have noticed this but my glasses have been in rough shape for close to two years.

So last week I made a comment.

Out loud. In front of the dogs and the cats. As I was editing one of my videos.

I said "For Christ sake, I need to get a new pair of glasses!"

I had gone into the optometrist last year to get them straightened but she said the frames would pop apart if they tried to bend them because they had been sat on too many times.(I adlibbed that last part.)

I guess I'm just a huge procrastinator because I just never go until there's an emergency.

Last night, she was chewing her squeaky ball in bed and after a while I heard a snapping and crunching sound so I shone the phone light at her and saw the destruction. I guess Banx decided to help me get on the new glasses thing I had mentioned before. On a holiday weekend when I can't see the optometrist until Tuesday at the earliest. Even though I have to drive tomorrow. And Tuesday. The crazy thing is that earlier this winter we were cleaning stuff up and I sent my old glasses to the donation bin for the Lion's Club.

Good thing I still have these prescription sunglasses!

I will have to use these to drive with until I can get some new ones. We can't get them made in our town either so they have to have them made somewhere and shipped in. Gerri says I might be able to get some sample contacts though so hopefully we can do something.
