Friday the 13th

eyeglassesWhat a bad way to start my day.   I was having trouble sleeping the whole night as I twist and turn my way around my bed.  The next thing I heard is a crack sound and I broke my Nike Flexon 4082 glasses.  I really like Nike’s Flexon series as they bend well but they tend to be more expensive.  (Has anyone ever tried purchasing a pair of frame yourself and just bring it to your optimist and just by the lenses?  The price at the Optometrist is exorbitant!)  Now I am stuck with an old pair of glasses that needs replacement.

On an ironic note, I did win 5 Swagbucks while searching to see my eye glass replacement options.  Thanks Swagbucks for your contribution.  Now I just need other sources of income where I can generate $200 for a new frame and I will be set.
