My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
It’s probably a combination of age and the fact that I spend so much time on the Internet staring at a computer screen, but my farsightedness has gotten progressively worse.
I started off with reading glasses of 100 strength, however now I’m up to 175. I fear that within the next year I’ll be using my binoculars.
Now, my nearsightedness is fabulous. I can see clear across the state of Pennsylvania and over to Boston, yet ask me to read something like a book without my glasses, and I have to hold it ten feet away from me and squint.
Oh, and you should see me trying to thread a sewing needle without my glasses. It takes me two hours and a glass of wine.
I know this sounds strange, but if I can't see something properly it makes feel like I can't breathe.
A few months ago, I finally succumbed to using my glasses while shaving every morning. I had to because I was not only missing spots, but also nicking the HELL out of my skin. It was a bit tricky at first trying to shave my face with glasses on. I’ve gotten use to it, though. Sorta.
Please take a look……
Here I am with a stubbly beard.
Applying my shaving cream.
Ooops!....see what happens when you wear glasses while applying shaving cream?
Here I am carefully shaving, as not to cut myself.
Shaving my chin. My least favorite part to shave.
Here I am completely finished.
Yup….I think it’s time to bring out my binoculars. Seriously.
