New glasses

I got new glasses today! I went and picked them out Wednesday after school- I picked up Frank from daycare and then went on my way home. Poor Frank- he watched me try on one new pair and burst into tears! He was completely inconsolable the rest of the time we were in the store. Then, I went and got them today, and he didn't seem to noticed when I walked in the door with them on.

The glasses have black frames, and they're sort of rectangular. They're much smaller lenses than my previous glasses are, so it's going to take me some time to get used to the fact that I can actually see all the way around the frames out of the corner of my eyes. But I like them, I now have a spare pair so I don't need to freak out as much when Frank touches them, and Darrel even said, completely unsolicited, that he liked them, too.

Pictures will be forthcoming after we get back from pumpkin picking this afternoon.

Ooooh, I want pumpkin picking pics too!!

Are your glasses the same prescription? If not, maybe your old glasses had been contributing to your headaches.

Yes, I like your blog here much better. :)

Funny, I got new glasses a month ago and I'm STILL not used to the smaller frames! I still wear the old ones at home -- I've had them so long they're like an extension of my body.

We ended up not going pumpkin picking- Frank slept for four hours yesterday afternoon, and by the time he got up, it was after 4pm! He's been fighting off a cold all week, anyway, so it was better he sleep. But we're going pumpkin picking on a field trip with daycare this week. I'll try and get pictures then.
