*flounces in, in a grump and sits on the sofa* I have to wear glasses. Optician said he was only giving me them cos I kept getting headaches and tired eyes. How can you say I don't need them when one eye is +0.50 MORE than the other eye. Idiot man.

Elfen 0.50 dioptres isn't really much - my eyes are -4.75 and -5.50:eek:

Is if you don't wear glasses and haven't before and keep getting headaches. It's a long road down the slippery slope to needing two pairs like my dad

becky_rtw

I'm already -4.00 and -3.5 - contacts are always the way to go imo

My prescription hasn't needed changed in 15 years so I wouldn't panic quite yet:p At least you have the choice of slipping your glasses off when you feel like it - if I don't where glasses/contacts I really can't see much at all:o

Aw you'll get used to it Elfen - are they just for reading? I'm really short sighted and astigmatic and hated it when I first got them but I like them now

Snaggles

Morning :wave: I think the Christmas spirit has finally descended on the Snaggles household, kids are 'dancing' (it's a generous description ) around to Christmas songs, I have almost caught up on the housework and it's in danger of looking clean and tidy if I'm not careful.

Mum and Dad are coming over to pick the kids up in an hour or so, Dad is bringing a drill that will 'definitely' drill into my bricks, so I might even have shelves and coat hooks by later today.

...and Mr Sunday is coming round as soon as he finishes work :j :j (could be any time between about 4pm and 8pm at a guess...hope it's not TOO early because I need a LOT of time to make myself presentable today). :rolleyes:
