Making history

I surely must be the only person in the world who picked up their very first prescription of the contraceptive pill (progesterone only, to see if it suits me before trying the implant), and varifocals, on the same day.

I should hasten to add that I only need the close work section of the glasses when I am wearing the distance glasses, which were recently upgraded to enable me to actually see the leaves on the trees - I don't need them with my contact lenses in, which is what I wear most of the time, and I don't need them without my glasses on. I'm not that bad!

In other news, it turns out TMI friend has quite short cycles (I know you don't want to know that but I don't either, so you're just going to have to read this with your eyes closed) which slightly explains why we get the I that is TM every five minutes. I will stop posting about her. Until I get really annoyed again. I should hide her, but it's like a car crash - you can't stop looking.

I'm still just using reading glasses but it's starting to be a nuisance either seeing everyone as a blur or not being able to see anything closer than an arm extension away - I keep saying that my eyes are fine but my arms are too short.
I'm still struggling with the concept of walking my daughter to grade one when I'm 50. I'm sure I'll frequently be mistaken for the grandmother.
Have an enjoyable holiday (I do read, I just don't comment very often).
