A New Look, Looking Toward a New Day

The older I get, the longer my list of what there will NOT be in Heaven.
Last night I was thinking that the grass in Heaven will be lush and green and weed free--and it will NOT grow. No mowing in Heaven, nosiree. Or maybe it will grow and Satan's minions will come mow it every day, maybe twice every day, while we sip iced tea and watch them. It's a thought, don't you think?
Evelyn and I mowed last night (Tuesday). We had just mowed Saturday, but it was so long we had to catch it or rake it to avoid clumps or rows of dead grass. But I'm not complaining. Come July or August I'll be posting pictures of a yellow, dried-out lawn and frustrated by the drought.
Now, for today's pictures. I got new glasses last week. My new prescription is not that much different from the old, but I had Flex money that was going to go away May 1 if I didn't spend it. So I went to Costco and got two pair, and had to pay very little for them out of my own pocket. So now I have three "looks," although two are very similar.
Which do you like best?

The above are two views of the same pair of glasses (as well as my five o'clock shadow!).

This pair is a lot like my old glasses, but with a thin rim at the top.

These are my old glasses, rimless, lightweight.
Actually, I really like 'em and will probably still wear 'em quite a bit.

Eye Don't Know!

Evelyn and I had our eye appointments tonight. We really like our eye doctor, but he's usually behind schedule, and tonight was no exception. So while I waited to see him, I decided to try on some of the frames in the waiting room. The doctor said my prescription has changed only a little, so I'm deciding if I should get new glasses. I wonder if any of these looks would be right for me?

Oh Say, I Can See!

BEFORE

GETTING FIXED

The big news today is that I got my glasses fixed! New temples, the guy called 'em, the left and right handle things that keep the glasses straight on my face. I've been getting along with only one of 'em since Tuesday, so I was glad to get back to normal today. At the right--the BEFORE picture. At the left--the glasses being fixed picture. Below--the back-to-normal AFTER picture.

AFTER

My day didn't start well

I was checking Facebook and to see if anyone had responded to my blog, so I just ate some yogurt while I was doing that, instead of a banana in the car, which is my usual breakfast. Then it was time to get to work, so I went to the kitchen to brew the one cup of coffee I can now brew in the one-cup coffee brewer Evelyn got me for Valentine's day. When I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, I took off my glasses to comb my hair again, and the frame broke off in my hand. Bummer! I had just had them adjusted yesterday, because they weren't sitting right on my head.
I went back to the kitchen to discover that I had poured the cup of water in the brewer and pushed the "On" button--but had NOT set the cup under the spout to catch the brewed coffee! So the counter was covered with a big, brown puddle. (I'm glad it was just a cup.) Thankfully there was no mail yesterday, so no bills or anything else important was sitting in the brew. (I can replace the issue of Christian Standard whose tan pages were dripping coffee when I picked it up.)
In all the hubbub, after I wiped up the counter and brewed another cup of coffee, I forgot to take my pills.
So I got to work with elevated blood pressure and glasses hanging precariously on one ear.
For a fee (more than I'm willing to post), the nice man at the eye doctor's office has ordered new earpieces and will install them for me--probably tomorrow.
Like Evelyn said about the coffee pot, "That's one mistake you will probably never make again." I hope not. If I do, I'm not sure I'll admit it here!
