I felt that I was on a higher level than what I actually was, but I got used to it within a couple of days. I am not sure if all this working on the Internet will affect my eyes on the long-term (I guess it will). I hope you will get used to your new glasses sooner. Your post somehow made me realize that all the wonders of the world are right in front of me!! :)<br /><br />Destination Infinity<br /><br />PS: YOUR BLOG HAS BEEN BLITZED!!

I never really had to wear glasses until I needed over-the-counter readers about 15 years ago. I used them past the time I really needed a prescription pair. So thus the difficulty I believe.Donna Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738281869266957726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604430404780110710.post-76272848594907946272013-06-19T12:04:37.490-04:002013-06-19T12:04:37.490-04:00You have laugh lines, my dear; you should celebrat...You have laugh lines, my dear; you should celebrate them!
