Hope all is well with each of my blog friends today!
This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!
It's gonna to be a beautiful day!
Wel.....I took quite a few more pics the other night and thought I'd show y'all more of the eggs that DD and I had painted along with the other "old Ball jar aqua" color accent pieces I have around our LR/DR.......primarily in the DR.....hope ya likey!
I've long loved the old aqua canning jars.......so I just thought that color would be just beautiful done on other things.....then prim'd up just right of course! :)
DD and I have worked and worked on the LR & DR......we've moved furniture in.......out.......and around! LOL!! I will be posting the room re-do pics most likely on Wednesday.....so stay tuned!
I have a follow-up dr. appt. today......have to go add stuff to my booth in town.....I guess I'm finally going to have to go get more glasses......I broke pair "A" my cute Nine West black frames
last year.....then went back to the spare pair "B".......it was no time until they popped by the nose piece and they could not be fixed.....so I scratched around in the drawer and pulled out old pair "C"......well they were soooo terribly scratched.......but knowing the cost of new ones for me...$300-400!!...... I just kept wearing them......then, this morning I woke up and put them on.....only to notice I was looking through a smudged spot....took them off to clean them.....and yep, the frame portion connecting right to the nose piece snapped right in two....the screw in the temple piece had already stripped out Saturday as well!!!
I promise I am not that rough on glasses.....I have had to wear them since Fourth grade.....
Normally, that would have upset me to have my glasses broken.....I have very poor eyesight when my glasses aren't on and I CAN NOT function without them!
After realizing there was no way to fix them or swap pieces from my other glasses.....
I went scrathing around in the drawer again.....lol!
Well, I pulled out an old glass case.....reached my fingers down in the case and........ ta dah!
I found yet an even older pair "D"......these frames are huge!
Honestly, I don't even remember ever having frames that big!!
I laughed outloud......(everyone else still in bed)......cause they looked like Mr. Magoo had left them behind.....my eyesight is about like his too.....if you've ever seen the movie you know what I'm saying.....lol!!!
Yes, you betcha.....I put them on and was so relieved and happy I could see!
Now, I will find myself explaining to everyone I encounter today that these aren't my real glasses....hee heee!!
Guess I'm forced to go get new one's now.....I sure hope I can get some under $300.00
Isn't that just ridiculous??!!
It nearly makes me miffed just thinking about it.....but when I think about being able to "see".....
that suddenly seems like such a small price to pay.......
It's all in how you "look" at things......huh? (no pun intended....) :-D
Thanks for letting me vent!
Hope you enjoy these pics!
Have a great day!!!

Love all the pics, and so sorry about your glasses! I had to laugh at your humor in the whole situation. Better to laugh with you than at you, right? :D
Can't wait to see your room re-dos!
Everything looks great, I love the aqua color.
Hope you get some more glasses soon and don't have to hock your first born to get them. I am like you with out my glasses I might as well stay in bed. But thanks to the Lord, I am blessed to have insurence for glasses.
Thanks for sharing the pics. Everything looks great! And I love the stories you tell!
Great pictures and blog. I like you " what would you be doing on Monday at 3:3o if Jesus came" I must remember, always to put the Lord first in my life. Blessings Sandi
