This morning I was getting my contacts ready to place on my eyeballs and I glanced up. Why, I don't know. Wait....what's that I see??
No way!! The glasses that I thought fell out of my car onto a snowy parking lot [2 days ago] were staring back at me!! I guess they were there all this time....why didn't I see them before this?!! I never put them there, never. Surely I looked there yesterday.
Maybe not.
guess I didn't =/
(before I took this pic, I had picked them up and placed them down again. I think they were closer to the stack of wash clothes but I'm not certain. Anyway, I didn't see them before this morning!!)
I always use the lower shelf for the pair I'm not needing. The two have different purposes.
I had a dream this morning. In that dream, my glasses were found by someone I had just recently seen and talked to.... Someone I hadn't seen in years!! Anyway, this person called me and said they would mail them to me. I was thrilled! But then, in my dream, I got to thinking how long it would take for me to get them. I must sing on Sunday at church (really need my glasses) and if they were put in the mail on Friday, I wouldn't get them till Monday even though they were sent locally....this thought process was all part of the dream!!
Back story.....last week I mailed my little local Grands and my Great-Grand in Baltimore, a Valentine card. I didn't want them to come early so I mailed them on Friday. I knew that Kaden wouldn't get his on Saturday and was sad I didn't think of that earlier. Of course two of the cards were coming right back to the same mailbox they left in because we live with 2 of our Grands. How sad that the cards were not the mailbox the next day, Valentine's day!! A FB friend had the same happen to her and we realized next day service for local mail is a thing of the past. What?? Monday was a holiday so the cards came 3 days late :(. To my surprise, Kaden got his the very same day as our local Grands. Crazy, isn't it?
So all that was on my mind even in my dreams!
I was SO surprised and thrilled to find those glasses this morning. I will have them to help me see the words I need to sing on Sunday :)
So why two pairs of glasses?
Another back story....
My vision for distance is very impaired. I've been wearing glasses since first grade. Somewhere along the years I started wearing contacts. As I got older, I needed reading glasses, too, to read. Taking glasses on and off gets old!! So, as a Christmas gift one year, our kids told me to pick out two pairs of frames...they were giving me glasses!! The one I was looking for yesterday is what I wear with my contacts. They contain a progressive lense...no correction on the top, correction on bottom so I can see and read! It really works for me! The other one has my full prescription/ progressive lense. I wear them when not wearing the contacts. Again, it really works for me. Except, when I can't find them....or lose them. I'm not telling you about the other pair I lost and never found. Nope, not telling! It's too embarrassing.
So there you have it and probably more than you cared to know! Humor me , it's cold outside and brain cells are sluggish :)
11:47a.....was below 0 earlier this morning.
Take care, stay warm!
