I got my new glasses today! What a crazy adjustment this is going to be. I remember when I was in sixth grade, my teacher, Sister Patricia Ann (Catholic school) was talking to us about the day we would eventually get bifocals. She said, “Now when you put them on for the first time, the first question you’re going to ask is, “Where is the floor?”" Oh my goodness, who knows why I would actually retain that useless information, but she was right again! hehehe. (She was one of my favorite teachers ever. Structure and organization were her passion! I learned so much, and still use a lot of her knowledge today, obviously.)
Walking in bifocals is just a whole new world. I know I looked crazy trying to get out of that doctor’s office! I cut a very wide berth around all the chairs, haha. I’ve been doing research on the best ways to adjust to bifocals, and most of what I have read has served me well. The main idea is to always point your nose in the direction in which you are looking. Also, don’t look down while you are walking. Everything is all curvy and shifts unexpectedly. (I will NOT be using these things on the treadmill. I will certainly be doomed.)
I went straight from the doctor’s office to Walmart to do some shopping. (I figured I should break them in.) I got better with maneuvering with the glasses as I got further into my list, but one of my first stops was bananas. I must have looked nuts because some guy offered to pick out my bananas for me. hahahahaha.
I won’t know for sure how it’ll all go until I work a few days in them, of course. Driving is just a dream, though! I can see everything.
Dinosaur Update: I think someone actually bought two of the dinosaurs at CVS. Oh man, this is too exciting. 
I am not getting my hopes up yet though. I have a feeling they’re hiding diabolically somewhere in the store, just waiting for me to find them.
