Colder

Every day it gets colder when I have to go out,

I really don't want to go, but the nurse will  be somewhat upset with me if she had to reschedule me again.

Still...

I'm going, I'm going.

When I'm sick, I'm sick.

I was a fool for trying to go to work today, nevermind leave the house.

I was just about bed ridden for three days with body racking coughs.

The pic above is proof of my expelled flem and mucous from my body during those three-ish days.

I will try again to work tomorrow. I have meds, a bit of a day of more rest, and a short work day. 11-3.

Later.

Today

I got my new glasses. I was told that they would be ready next week, but I got a call last night saying they were there already.

So I told them, very quietly, that I would come for them today before I start work at 10:30. Quietly because I lost my voice and trying to talk hurt.

I have a chest cold and a sore throat. I was hoping to recover my voice today, but that lasted all of an hour. And a slow hour at that. 

As for my glasses. I have to get use to the weight and this new smooth bifocals thing with blurry sides.

Now I'm in a movie theater. I wanted to watch justice league, but it's not playing. Neither is avengers. So I picked the last Jedi. But I had an hour till I started.

Now I fear that I have picked another long movie.

Ok. Got to go now.

Eye Exam

Hello There.

After work today I went to have my eyes checked and get new glasses. I was there on time, but I wasn't seen for almost an hour. Then I had to sit at 6 different machines that checked all kinds of things with my eyes. Then I got the see the eye doctor after a very delayed bathroom trip.

She asked why I was there today. I guess if I really thought about it, I could have come up with more than one answer. But since I had a real reason myself, I was saved from making any kind of smart comment. I told her that either my vision has gotten worst or I needed the bifocals that I didn't get last time.

So my prescription was updated/changed to something a bit stronger, at least for my reading. I guess my distance one is unchanged. So, I went for progression lens. I had to get the bifocals. I almost didn't get them because of the coast, but I got a payment plan for the total of $525. The extra $25 is 'insurance' for my frames for one year.

Now in case you got your glasses for more than $500, my price was that low, including exam, because I used my insurance to cut some of the cost and I didn't get fancy on the frames and nothing else was added to my lenses. I would have liked scratch resistance. But after ending up at $525 and under pain of crippling interest rates if I miss a payment of $89 for the next 6 months, I didn't want to know what that would cost me and maybe temp me further down a path I didn't want to find myself.

So, where are my glasses? If you have gotten such glasses, you would know that they are done at some lab somewhere. So I won't see my new glasses for a week. I tried on a few different frames, but I liked the feel of the first one she gave me better than the others. I just kinda wish there wasn't any 'bling' on the sides.

After there I went to change into my cold weather clothes then I remembered the frames that I paid for way back when got a bad prescription. So I went back to ask them how much it would cost to use my frames. That knocked off maybe $50. She also said something about seeing what kind of frames they were, so I'm taking them to show her this week.

This week I also have a shift that starts at 8 am. I can't do it. I know. Most of you have never had a job that didn't start after 8am, but I would have to be up 4 hours before that to get to work on time. Personally, I can't do it. I'm a night person. I rather work late than come in early. It tires me out too much. I'm falling asleep on the bus now because I am up for work 4 hours ahead every day for work.

So, I have to call Britney in a few minutes so she can change the 8am to 10am. I may or may not keep all my hours, but it can't be helped.

Just when I started to get serious about starting to pay down my amazon card I give myself another bill. But I have to see. Oh, I can't find my pay card either. I put a hold on it as I waited for it to show back up again, but it hasn't. I just know that when I request a new card I'm going to find it. But I have to because I can't move my pay from there to my other bank account until I do.

Lunch...

I came over, picked a seat at the bar. Ordered my meal clearly, and even interrupted her when she was placing the order to tell her no butter on the bun.

I then waited for her to come back to tell her that I was coming back so I wouldn't loose my seat.

I came back and my dear was gone. Along  with my lemon water. And then as I sit down a lady showed up with the wrong order. The only thing I recognized on the plate was the sweet potato fries.

Now I have everything.

This is almost the exact view from my kitchen window

And I was mistaken. I don't have work tomorrow after all.

I have work Monday then off Tuesday. Then work for the rest of the week.

I heard it may snow again on Tuesday too.

The sun sets too early

Well, the snow is still falling...barely. One of those snow trucks came by. So the streets will not be and have not been a problem. But I still have to deal with sidewalks to get to work tomorrow.

Yep, I got work. At least it will be 10 degrees warmer. Yeah... 40 degrees. As a high. I know I won't feel it.

It's a sad day

... When you are looking for lemon grass and the person you ask for help has to look it up on their phone. 😶

Just missed all the buses

... So it may be a while before I can get out of this 30 degree weather we are currently having. With wind gusts.

Did I ever tell you that I despise the cold/winter?

I so do.

Sales, Sales, Sales.

This is may be the only time I post something like this... well, maybe not. But, this may be the first time I'm posting something like this.

I have to get more comfortable with marketing myself. I know why it's so hard. I'm not use to seeing much about me that is worth 'selling'. Yes, even my photos and fractals despite thinking that I have some very good ones. 

Anyway, here I go.
