VBS has thrown off my groove. And I am not even working this year. It’s the back and forth. And then the other back and forth.
Plus, the fact that Honey has had to go into work early all week. Additionally, we are getting Muggins Q. Mouse ready to go to camp this afternoon.
Mousey hijacked my entire yesterday. She came to me the night before with a problem.
Well, that’s going to have ramifications. She was not due for her new glasses until September. The prescription that I had for her was from her last July eye appointment.
I called the place where we had bought these glasses. At first the sales person recommended taking them to a jeweler to have them soldered. But they were plastic. They then said they would check to see if they had the same frames, and just put her old lenses in them. On what planet would things have been that easy? They were discontinued. Scratch # 1.
I then called her eye Dr. to see if she could quick, get a new prescription early. She has another appointment in July, would they pretty please do that? I think they might have, had the Dr been in the office this week. Scratch # 2.
I seemed to recall that LensCrafters could make glasses quickly. Just how quickly remained to be seen. If you recall, I had exactly ONE DAY. Or else she was going to blindly go where no Mouse had ever gone before. Camp.
LensCrafters are my very favorite people this entire week! Of course, we had to pay more than I would have liked, and we had to use her last years prescription, but those babies were ready in one hour!
She chose a pair that had a little purple on them, a fashion departure for her.
She looks darling. And she can SEE!
Can I get a WOOT WOOT for the LensCrafters!

We’ve used them in a pinch too…and it was worth the cost indeed!
The new frames look cute

Oh the horror of having your glasses break. Only people with glasses understand this. I always keep an extra old pair just in case. It’s like a phobia of mine; to lose them or break them while I am away. I LOVE the new glasses. Suits her to a “T” What an understanding mom you are.

Very cute. I heard about the glasses and was sorry you didn’t have time to get them repaired and then I read this! Good news… and I love the purple!

Once, while driing to Viriginia, Jeff broke his glasses like that. We stopped at an optical store in Winchester and they refit his lenses into frames they had in stock…lucky! Mousey’s new glasses are adorable on her!
