Specs and stuff

To get up to date, JuneBug is slowly improving but of course now that we had a couple of cool evenings where I could turn off the AC and open the windows, she starts sneezing. Gurllll. Go sit next to the air purifiers or something.

Since my back was being as well as could be expected, yesterday morning I took some of the things that I can't send out for wash and fold service to the laundromat prior to the crack of dawn. That included all three big fluffy cat beds. When I got back and put them back on the bed, the kitties spent all day rotating bed to bed for naps.

My grocery delivery came at 9am which was nice because I sorely needed a nap so I put everything away and tried to get a 40ish minute nap before some small furry girl decided to harass me for snack.

Yesterday afternoon I finally made it to the eye appointment that I had to reschedule due to kitty issues a couple of weeks before. She was pleased with the condition around my eyes since she recommended washing right on top of my lids and massaging with Cetaphil. I actually should be doing it more and I will. She brought up the scans and saw the source of the floater that freaked me out about a month ago. She said we'll need to keep an eye on it since it is pretty big and if I have the big blurry area happening, to call them right away to get it scanned and make sure it's not pressing on the optic nerve. She also wants to see me again in 6 months to check on the status and we hope that it reabsorbs.

I was there to get some new glasses since I've had mine for a couple of years and while they're doing ok, the "spares" that I have are many years old so I need to turn my current pair into the "spare." My prescription changed only slightly which is good. I went around and tried on all kinds of frames and sent the pictures to Emily to help me pick out which ones to get. It was tempting to get fun colored frames and I was almost about to get some purple or green ones but then we all liked a pair of light brown ones that compliment my eye color. I did almost get these HUUUUUGE ones but since I have progressive lenses, they wouldn't have worked very well with them. Boo!



One thing that was really obvious from the several selfies I sent is the sagging skin over my right eye. It's creepy since it makes my eye look off in some pictures. Eh, maybe I'll win the lottery and be able to get a lid lift.

I asked if they take donations since when I was cleaning, I found many old pairs. They said they do have a donation box and the glasses go to the needy from a church organization overseas. That's nice. I'll bring in my extras when I pick up my new specs in a couple of weeks.

kitty health, glasses, eye health
