1. In my opinion, there aren't many things more stressful than getting an eye exam.
 |
| source "What is better 1 or 2, 3 or 4?" Oh my gosh, I don't know! I get so nervous when I go through this exam. What if I say the wrong number? I'll screw up everything. My prescription didn't change too much. My right eye is a little bit worse and my left eye is a bit more astigmatism-ey. But I did get to order new glasses! I picked them from the grandpa rack, but I think they look great! 2. Why do grocery stores insist on stocking so many types of toilet paper? I get so overwhelmed standing in front of all the billion types of toilet paper varieties. And of course I can never remember which kind I bought last time.  3. Last night was the first time I tried dying my hair myself. I donned the rubber gloves, mixed jar 1 with jar 2, and went to town. I kept reading the directions to make sure I had done everything right. It said mix stuff, put on hair, rinse out. So I jumped in the shower (and proceeded to get my entire shower curtain purple in the process). After drying my hair I realized that all the way to the right of the directions was a sentence that said "leave in for 25 minutes." Well shoot! I guess I'll be dying my hair again next week.  4. We're supposed to get 15 inches of snow this week. I was born and raised in Alaska, but no matter how much snow we get, I will just never get used to it.  Everyone keeps asking me "being from Alaska, you must be used to this, right?" No, it's still cold. |
LOL! I'm the same at eye exams! I just say anything now and it all seems ok!
ReplyDeleteYour hair dying made me laugh! they really need to make the wording bigger on these things!
Regarding the eye exam, you should go to YouTube and look up Brian Regan and his bit on going to the eye doctor. Hilarious. Ironically, I watched it the night before my eye exam and I was cracking up during my appt. It was a little awkward but I explained to the doc why I was laughing.
ReplyDeleteWe are supposed to get a lot of snow, too, this week.
AND, an email is coming to you today. So sorry for the delay.
we're supposed to get tons of snow this week too, bleh! and get down to the teens :( i've lived in MI most of my life but don't think i'll ever get used to it. where do you live?
ReplyDeleteHaha, I agree with the toilet paper! Shampoo is the same way - I just stand there for forever until I finally just grab something...
ReplyDeleteI love your comment about getting used to snow. I just moved from Colorado to San Antonio, TX and everytime it is cold people say, "Colorado girl, you must be used to this". I respond with, "No, I just know how to dress"
ReplyDeleteAMEN! on the TP!!! I get so overwhelmed.
ReplyDeletebest monday post ever! the pups made me smile =)
ReplyDeleteOh no, the hair dye! lol I'm a pro at that. When you get in the shower to rinse next time sit down. Rinse sitting for a couple minutes before you stand up. Totally minimizes the mess! Was that TMI? :)
ReplyDeletei didn't know that about alaska, how neat. eye exams are very stress inducing! i feel bad making the dr. go back and forth, but i can't TELL the difference between the options sometimes!
ReplyDeleteThe Alaska thing...yeah, my sentiments exactly. I mean, I can't tolerate heat very well...but that doesn't mean I like freezing cold temperatures either. I'm human, after all. Not a polar bear :)
ReplyDeletelovely blog. :)
ReplyDeleteHilarious! I do the same thing at the eye doctor! Sometimes they have to show it to me a few times. And then I say, "Two?" like the doctor's gonna tell me if that's the right answer.
ReplyDeleteI must say, the doggie with the eye exam reminds me of Tock the Watch Dog from Phantom Toll Booth!! And yes, I always get overwhelmed by the toilet paper and tissue paper too, I've stopped buying paper towel already....
ReplyDeletei right there with you on eye exams but personally i would take that over the dentist! lol! following you from much love illy! i love her she is a sweetie and i'm glad to have visited your blog. now following. happy to meet you!
ReplyDeleteOh I get so nervous during my eye exams too. Everything begins to look the same after a while. I try and buy my TP at Costco. I love the Kirkland brand. Otherwise, I buy what's on sale, but it has to be a brand name and 2 Ply! Sorry your dye didn't work out too well. Love your pictures!
