Glasses

So, among other things, I wear glasses.  This isn’t unusual, a great many people do these days.  However, when I went for my exam this year, I found myself admitting to looking under and taking off my glasses entirely so as to see things up close.  So the eye doctor recommended I get... bifocals.  😳  I was not best pleased with this plan, but at the same time I kinda understood the need for them.  I do a lot of up-close work, especially when I’m working on an embroidery project, so it kinda made sense.  

Well, I picked them up Monday afternoon, and have been attempting to adjust to them.  They’re WEIRD!  And I find I keep running into “the line” at the top, where they change from regular glasses to readers, and that just makes things worse.  But I haven’t gotten a headache from them (yet, lol), so I suppose that’s a good thing.  It’s just adjusting to them that’s taking me some time.  I had to drive to Tallahassee on Monday, so THAT was certainly an interesting experience.  I kept trying to look through the reader portion while driving, but everything just looked blurry.  lol

But having decent vision up close is slightly surreal.  I don’t think I’ve had that in ages, not since before I started wearing glasses, in fact. So here’s an obligatory picture of me with my new specs, what do you think?  🙂
