glasses quandary continues
After lunch today I said to Dave that I was going to bed - to be depressed. He said you mean going to bed is depressing? No, I'm going to bed to feel my depression (in private).
Blaa.
Not even sure where it came from. Maybe it was getting some glasses frames in the mail this morning that I thought I was going to look really good in, but I just looked dumb. And old.
Compare. First - my try at getting a "new" look with clear plastic frames. Second - the glasses I got recently - my usual look of wire rims.
Trying on glasses is like trying on clothes - just makes me feel bad and not good enough for some reason. I can send the plastic frames back if I don't like them. I don't have my prescription in them yet. Maybe I could give them a bit more of a try before I send them back...
Dave's gone off to ice fish. He got us 6 walleyes yesterday (that's the limit). I'm planning to make some seafood/potato chowder for dinner with a couple of them. It will be nice for him to come home to a hot soup dinner tonight.
As the afternoon goes on I'm feeling a bit better. So what? about the glasses. My glasses in photo number 2 are fine and I already have them. I don't have to have a new look. All this thinking about glasses is just dumb. And vain. But then I keep coming back to the thought that I could have a free pair of glasses with my insurance - why not get them and have something different for once? Aurgh.
This morning my affirmation was to love and be kind to myself, in addition to loving and being kind to others. After reading over what I wrote above I think I need to work on that (for myself) a little more.
