Made it to c the eye doc. My prescription changed a little bit, as per usual he said I could get another year out of my glasses. However, if I wanted to I could get a new pair. I came prepared with a couple of items but 1 was a child’s frame so that’s out. The other was a sunglass that had a curved fit to it, you can put regular lens in it but based on feedback I was talked out of that one. So the lady found something in plastic by Izod or Oakley not sure which one. It’s super bright blue which is what I wanted. She ordered in the frame in two sizes and I’ll be back there to check them out when they arrive. Cost with insurance will be $216 which isn’t horrible but it is expensive to keep doing this every freaking year.
So I talked with the doc about conjunctivitis in my right eye. It’s just aggravating to wake up in the morning to have one of your eyes close to glued shut. Then you rub it and that junk gets in your eye and it feels gritty. It’s a nightmare that I have lived with as a result of initiation in High School when some stupid girl put mascara in my eye instead of on the lashes. I got one hell of an eye infection then and with some drops that cleared up. Then as I got older this problem started up and it isn’t getting better. Turns out there is a drop for this it’s a steroid and antibiotic mixed together. It’s still under a patent and as you can well imagine it’s expensive as all get out. I got a sample and will give it a try for a week, if it seems to work I just ring up the doc and he will phone in a prescription. If I get this, it will go to the pharmacy at work and I have already done my homework to get a coupon to reduce the cost even further.
I’ve done battle with my tires today. The dealership always sets them back to 35 and my ride felt lopsided. I put in a little bit of air and went for a ride. That wasn’t good enough so I have all of the tires back to 40 which is 5 pounds over but that seems to work for me. I’ve done this with most every vehicle I have had. On the lemon car it worked against me because it created feathering or a bald spot but I just think that was part of the make up of the car, everything about it was cursed from the day I bought it. Oddly enough I do miss it a little bit. It was a sharp looking vehicle.
In case you can’t tell I like expensive things and I’d be considered high maintenance but I take care of myself how I see fit. Cars never appealed to me but now it’s like I woke up and I now I want to trade vehicles all the time. I have not the money for it but I do have the desire. Thankfully without the money and the fact that I froze all of my credit reports I can’t make any rash decisions to buy. I really like what I have it’s nice and I’m super proud of it and the fact that some how I have made it all come together.
Marv seems to have an inflamed knee and he is walking funny. He’s always had a hitch in his giddy up but this is more pronounced. However, he managed to jump on the couch for the first time in a while. I talked with him about it and he just looked at me like what. I am watching him I may take him to the vet but I know the first thing they will want to do is an x-ray and that is an easy $100 if not $120. I just don’t want to lose him and at the same time I don’t want him to be in pain. That might be what all of his crying is about.
Got my pizza on today. I went to a place where I met a friend a few weeks back. I ordered something different with salami and ham it’s super greasy and a little on the spicy side but it’s good. I made sure to get the large so that I could make a couple meals out of it. Hand tossed crust is what makes the difference. Plus the boys spinning the dough were really good looking. It wasn’t cheap but it was good. They had awesome desert as well but I passed on that this time.
I went into Target to grab a couple things and I’m still amazed that I dropped $80. Money spends so easy but is so hard to earn. I’m good to make it to the grocery store, the gas station and breakfast tomorrow after that I will be looking forward to payday.
It’s another hot day here. Off to surf the web and pass some time before it will be time to head up stairs and spend more time with the family and another day will have turned to night. I do hope all is well in your world. One more day of peace and quiet before I go back to the rat race. I still haven’t logged in to check on mail and I am going to try to wait until Monday morning. It will be one hell of a surprise but better to deal with it at work than at home.
Talk with you all again soon. Be well!
