Well, Hello there!
What have
you been up to the weekend? My husband came home on Sunday from his trip to
Leeds, UK. We spent the whole day together and I did not do anything else, including
my blog. But, here I am and this means that you will have two to read this
week! How lovely.
If you
follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you would have seen that I was spoiled by my
hubby and received my new pair of glasses. And I absolutely LOVE my new specs!
I don’t
know about you, but getting a new pair of glasses is both really exciting, but
at the same time nerve wrecking. You see, my Diabetes influences my sight when
my blood glucose levels go up and down.
While I was
sitting there I notice she removed her glasses. My first thought is “oh hell no,
how are you going to see if mine is OK?”, but I remember my friend used to work
at an optometrist and they usually wore glasses just for the fashion and of
course for marketing purposes. Relax now. Phew. Well, I hope it is only a
fashion statement...
So, sitting
in that chair all intimidated by this thing staring back at you and the optometrist
asking you questions is nerve wrecking. It goes like this:
O : Number 1
or number 2”
Me : (You
make me want to number 1 my pants) Uh..I am not sure...uh
O : Let’s
try again “this one or this one”
Me : (Oh the
pressure is on, in more than 1 way)I think...uh...both....
O : She
chips in..“this one or that one”
Me : Oh yah,
no this one is way better
Then it
goes on like this for what feels like a looong time (it was just 15minutes) and
then she turns some nobs on this freakish gazillion eyed monster and then it’s
like ”Oh hello HD! I haven’t seen you there. Whoa, wait girl the numbers don’t
have to get to the back of my eyes”.
Choosing
the frame was the easiest part. Believe or not, but this woman knows her stuff. She picked up 4 and
after what felt like 1 minute I was ready to leave and wait patiently for my
new specs to arrive.
Any way. I
was quite impressed with how quickly I got the SMS notifying me of collection.
Well done.
I really
truly love my new glasses:
I am going
to redecorate our home a little bit after the move (that is a whole other story
on its own. I will tell you about it later). We were browsing Mr Price Home in
Mooirivier Mall and I totally went crazy..in HD off course because I was
wearing my new glasses and everything is just so pretty and the pastel colors
and the zig-zag chevron patterns. Oh my word! Pay day!!!! Where are you?!
I saw this
pillow and my husband saw my face and he tells me, you can have it. It is just
so darn cute and seeing that we are two “nerds” (I mean this loosely because no
one is ever a nerd!) now, this just totally fits!
Look at it!
I am
TOTALLY a scholar! hahaha
Of course I
got some prezzies from the UK. He spoiled me rotton with a bag full of Lush
products. It is for Christmas though so I need to hide it so that I don’t use
it! it just smells so darn good!
My poor husbands
walked A LOT to search for Coca-Cola Cherry (the diet one). He found it at the
airport on his way back and bought 6 bottles. BUT he forgot a rule. He bought it
before he went through security thus he had to leave 4 bottles behind (I am
SURE someone is enjoying my coke). I got two and that is better than none. MAN,
I just LOVE diet cherry coke!
Well, to
get back to the moving and re-decorating. We are moving, yes. I will post a
blog after all this is done. Hopefully I will be able to give you some tips to
help you when you have to move someday.
For now
this is it.
Please
leave a comment below and tell me your specs stories! I would LOVE to hear from
you.
Speak to
you soon..or sooner!
xoxo
