The weather has been a bit cooler lately. Driving long distances is kind of hard on me but I really want to go with. We'll be driving right by the restaurant we met at on our first blind date. We're going to stop there and have dinner.

 I don't!  Just that we stayed there for about six hours.  DH left her a HUGE tip.

How sweet, NJN! Enjoy the sentimental journey!

#2 seems to be showing signs of anxiety about school. Complains he doesn't feel well every day, being excluded from games on the playground, etc. Ugh.

Good morning!

A semi-busy day scheduled for me. I get the kids.  smile

I will pick up the 3 year old at 11:30, and three more at 3:40.

A nap with the 3 year old, homework with the others, cooking, eating, reading, singing and whatever else they think of for the day.

Life is good.

Hope you all have a great day.

 Thanks!  It's a chain restaurant so we have one HERE but it's not the same.  The one we met at is about a two hour drive.  Ours is laid out entirely differently!  It's going to be fun.

 I KNOW!!

Seriously, DH and I haven't been sleeping well lately.  Every time the dog moves in the middle of the night we are awake and expecting her to have another seizure.  We are like parents whose child stopped breathing.  We can't seem to fully relax.

America's Best is a big waste of time and a trick.

Went their for the big deal you see them advertise.

Exam was basic.

The catch is the 69.99 for two pair of glasses are the frames only.

They don't tell you that till after you're on the hook.

The lenses starts at $200.

I got my prescription and will take it somewhere else.

 I go to the Optometrist I have since I was a child.  He is not cheap but he always gets it right.  When I was broke in my 20s I tried Hour eyes & others like it & they didn't do nearly as good a job.  I have heard several people swear by Costco as being cheap & reliable.  If I understand correctly you don't need a membership for their prescriptions & vision center.  You may want to verify that though.

ZenniOptical.com is an awesome place to get your glasses from. You need to know your pupilary distance as well as your script. I got a pair of regular glasses, two sunglasses and about 5 clip-on sunglasses for less then $100. And that included the special thin frames I get to keep my glasses from looking like coke bottles.

Hope all geeks are doing well.

Things are slightly improving here. Rx was finally approved but am now waiting on the pharmaceutical company to send me the info for the copay assistance so that my copay can go from $750 to $5.

Internship started Monday. I am exhausted. I am not used to being on my feet almost all day.

They said I needed bifocals. I've never needed bifocals. 

And then the guy pushing the glasses was talking about trifocals.

I think I messed up going there.

I'm depressed now.

A family of six died in a house fire this morning, very close to where I grew up.

They lived right across the road from a cousin of mine.

I know the grandparents. They will never recover.

That is so tragic Czech. I wonder why the smoke detectors didn't alert them in time.

(I'm assuming it's the same one, otherwise that is a very tragic coincidence)

Yes, but like most families, they are scattered.

I would want to die.
