My glasses will be in Monday, if nothing happens. I can hardly wait. My old ones had crackled. The eye doc said he thought it was the protective coating they put on them. I have two other pairs, both supposedly made just for sitting at the computer. He checked both pairs and the newest pair I have he said he had no clue what they were made for, but it wasn't a computer. He asked how my old computer glasses worked and I said fine. So I'm staying with them. They are made with the normal viewing not quite as strong as my normal bifocal part and then they have a bifocal part for if I need to read something I'm typing from. I wear glasses for out there vision--I can never remember if that is far or near sighted, and then of course bifocals.
The reason they couldn't make my glasses today is because the frames are smaller than any I've ever had and she needed to order a wider lens to be sure I would have plenty of viewing and reading area. I told the lady who helped with the frames that the eye place in hattiesburg always said I couldn't have smaller frames because of needing bifocals. She said that was stupid, they just didn't want to order the wider lens. I really hope they look good on me since I really couldn't see a darn thing. I just put my trust in the lady helping because she said it was her job to help find a pair that looked good on me and my face was too small for a large glass.
I had planned to eat lunch with Stacie, but just as I got into Walmart to pick up eye salve for dry eyes, Terry called and Sharon was here waiting on me. Then while I was in ATT he called again and said Jennifer was here. So I hurried up after leaving ATT, took Stacie's phone to her, picked up hamburgers and came home. Finally around 3 my eyes began to clear up, but I was miserable until then. I couldn't see anything up close. Dr. Sanders says I have some cataracts showing up but they aren't bad yet and until they start to give me problems, we'll just watch them. Otherwise, my eyes are good.
Sharon had finally got her land line phone turned on last week and had dial up internet, slow but she could at least get on the web and play on Facebook. They turned it off Monday and told her it was because the engineer hadn't signed off on it. She wanted me to call them to see if I could get it on before the 12th of the month, which is when they said it would be on. So I called and they said it would be on by midnight tonight. She wondered why I could call and get told that and they told her it would be the 12th. I didn't know the answer.
Jennifer just was up for a visit. She has back surgery the 19th of this month and was getting away before being laid up from that.
Yesterday, mine and Stacie's cell phones went crazy, sending the same message to each other over and over. I learned at church that my friends' phone, her daughter's and husband's was doing the same thing. I learned that one of the sponsor's phone was doing it too.
Stacie went to the store and they reset the network. I called from home and they did the same thing, saying if that didn't fix it then we needed a new simm card. I went by the store today with both phones, but the lady there said it was in their network, there was a ticket on it and it was being fixed, and we didn't need a simm card. Mine continued to replicate a message until finally I turned it off last night. This morning it acted normal until a friend replied to a text I sent and I've gotten that reply about 75 times. I called ATT again and was told that there was no ticket for ATT's network and replacing the simm card was the next step in troubleshooting. She said it was my account to give me two new simm cards and not to charge the normal 50.00 for them. I was told that if the customer rep gave me any slack to have her call the main office.
Later this evening, after I took my simm card and blew the dust off, if there was any on it, blew out the little slot it goes into, it finally started acting normal.
And that's my day. Not quite productive, but busy.
