Glasses…Glasses…Glasses

Jun 21, 2012 | Rita

No not the kind you drink out of but the kid you wear. My sister I are the only siblings to have to wear glasses, although hers are much stronger than mine (she is blind as a bat!) Since spending so much time on the computer I have noticed lately that my eyes hurt and fell strained much more often and I have headaches a lot. That,of course can only mean that I have to get a new prescription.

My prescription glasses really aren’t all that strong. They are more like readers with one having a clear lenses because I have an astigmatism in one eye and perfect vision in another. I like the style of my glasses and am always very wary about getting new ones. My first pair (and no I am not posting pictures) were these huge things that almost swallowed my face and made me look like such a geek. My glasses that I have now make me look more like the hot librarian or at least that is what my husband tells me.

Now it is time to buy glasses again and I am a bit nervous about it. I worry about what they will look like on me, the price, and, to be honest (and vain) whether or not I would need bifocals. I hate no not just hate I LOATHE going and trying on all those glasses only to find that the pair I really like cost a few hundred dollars. I also really hate the sterile feeling of the doctor’s office and the eye glass stores. I want to shop and look at my own pace without a pushy salesperson.

GlassesUSA.com has one of the best ways to shop for glasses from the comfort of your own home. It is called a Virtual Mirror. You can upload a picture of yourself  or select from an image of theirs based on you facial shape (like I did in the above pics) and try on as many different pairs of glasses as you like. I am so loving this! I can spend as much time and as many days as I need to find the perfect pair of glasses. Not to mention with GlassesUSA.com prices I can afford to get a couple of pairs for the same price as one pair in many of the big box stores.

Finding the perfect pair of eyeglasses is as important as finding the perfect surgeon. Your glasses are an extension of you and your style. I am personalty grateful for GlassesUSA.com because they have everything I am looking for; style, price, great customer service, and dependability. Of course I won’t be the only person shopping there in the next month, my sister will as well since she has to have stronger glasses too (Oh to grow old!)

    I just spent several minutes”trying on” frames. The glasses I’m wearing now cost a fortune. I’m definitely buying my next pair online. In fact, for less than what these cost, I culd gt a couple of pair for diffrent occasions!

    I remember as a kid I always wanted glasses. I wanted to look smart like the others. I went to the eye dr a couple of years ago because of dry eyes. My eyesight had always been perfect up until then. Now I sport the glasses as well. Ha Ha. I love that you can upload a pic and see what you look like before you buy. The prices are not that bad either. Thanks.

If you're looking for a Bible that helps you under If you're looking for a Bible that helps you understand your identity in Christ and God’s purpose for your life, the *Life in Christ Bible* is a must-have! 🙏📖 As someone who's recently been diving deeper into Bible study, I’ve found this Bible incredibly insightful and inspiring.

✨ One of my favorite parts is how it emphasizes that our value comes from who we are in God’s eyes, not from what we do. Each book begins with a helpful intro—key details like date, main idea, and a timeline outline make everything easy to follow.

❤️ Plus, the words of Jesus are written in red, and I love the "I Am" sidebars with extra insights and cross-references for deeper study.

And can we talk about the quotes from Charles Spurgeon and the historical charts?! 🙌 They really help put the New Testament into a broader context. Oh, and the maps at the back are a visual treat for anyone who, like me, loves seeing the geographical routes and locations come to life.

This Bible has been a game-changer for my spiritual growth, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to deepen their faith. 💙

I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I do it is always hot coffee. I rarely, if ever, drink iced coffee. There is just something about it that rubs me the wrong way.

What about you? Which do you prefer?
