I feel like a new person! I finally got new prescription glasses that fit me. My old glasses had scratched lenses and were so bent out of shape that I would get headaches while wearing them. These new frames are sturdy and hold their shape. I haven’t been reading in bed lately but I have an idea that they will withstand that test of holding their shape during that time too. I am hard on frames. I admit it! The expense of new glasses has kept me in my old ones far too long.

Now that I know how good these new glasses feel, I am interested in getting prescription sunglasses. I like being able to wear prescription sunglasses. Not switching from glasses to sunglasses, keeps me from getting headaches.

I checked prices at our local optometrist and they want way too much money even by offering a 50% sale because I purchased my glasses from them. I prefer ZenniOptical’s pricing. At Zenni, full UV protection tinted lenses are very affordable. Enough so that I can get two pair! Or I can get sunshades that fit right on my prescription glasses. Now, I just have to decide which frames to get! Decisions, decisions. LOL

Yesterday, mom and I visited Fair Oaks Farms near Winimac, Indiana. This is a fantastic place and I learned a lot about dairy farming. This video gives a short idea of what the place is like. It was not at all like the farms that are portrayed in Food, Inc. There is hope!

There are a lot of schools that are facing budget issues because of the economy. It’s kind of a scary time, but technology is continuing to advance and our students are at risk of being left behind because their schools can’t afford to keep up. Especially if they want to go to college, they could be at a disadvantage in their classes because they have not been exposed to the technology they need to use. This is a problem that needs addressed. Luckily, Charter Communications is doing something to help by offering their contest, the laptop-a-day giveaway, which will provide technology for two lucky schools. Plus, you could personally be a winner, too. Starting August 16 and going through September 20, ordering any Charter service automatically gives you a chance to win and get up to $300 cash back, or you can register online with no purchase necessary. You should nominate your favorite school and like Charter on Facebook. Charter will announce the two winning schools on September 27. I hope whatever schools are awarded the prizes through this inspirational contest are well deserving schools with worthy students who know how lucky they are to receive such an awesome gift through an inspirational contest.
