I was inspired by Jeanette’s guest blog last week and feel compelled to admit something. I am 33 and I have bifocals. Talk about feeling like an old lady! I was shocked when Dr. Funk told me I needed bifocals! Believe me, I paid the extra money for a blended line so no one can tell. And I wear my glasses ONLY to work or if I am being lazy. I feel less frumpy when I wear my contacts. Now, I love my eye doctor and I trust him fully but, really??? Bifocals.
However, I can totally relate to Jeanette’s feelings when she was walking around seeing things clearly for the first time. I couldn’t believe what I was missing! Words were clear, faces were clear. Everything was so bright and crisp. I notice my wrinkles in the mirror much more often now. So there are plusses and minuses… I am still not happy about bifocals but being able to see is wonderful!
Get your eyes checked and don’t let your ego get in the way of good senses.
