Ice and Glasses

We have a sun room off the back of our kitchen. At least that is what it is called during the summer. This winter it has earned a new name, "the ice box." Why would we call it that you ask. Because the temperature during the day is roughly 32 degrees. So if you wonder why our blog has been slow moving or I'm not answering e-mails it's because our computer is living in the ice box. I put on a coat when I do venture in here but my fingers still go numb pretty quickly. On the bright side, not many people have a walk in fridge in their house. :)

Now for the news. Berni got glasses! Apparently I have been far sighted or quite some time, who knew. The Doctor said it's hard to diagnose because I can still see fine, it's just that my eyes are doing a lot more work then they are supposed to. I put my glasses on for the fist time and about fell over. They are really taking some getting used to. My depth perception is wacko and I can't move my head around too much without getting a headache. Glasses stink!!

If you wonder why I'm bundled up in the house with a coat and scarf that's because this picture was taken in the ice box. So these are the glasses, tell me what you think. I think I'm getting frost bite on my fingers!

You still look lovely! And the depth perception thing will go away soon. I remember when I first got glasses and I almost fell down several times. Have fun with them.

Very chic Bern. Welcome to the club. You should have just asked me. I've got some old coke-bottle circa 1988 glasses in my attic that you are more than welcome too. Or there's the 2nd grade clear plastic version so that "people can't even see them on your face" or so I thought at least. Come to think of it, I've got years of adolescent nightmare versions you can choose from actually.

Bummer about the freezing home. We feel your pain. I wish you lived closer, I've got some extra veggies that are smashed in our fridge I'd love to store in your walk-in version.

It was so great talking to you today, we need to do that more oftem. I need more Berni in my life...
