Growing up my mom and dad used to call me eagle eyes. I could see anything and everything from a mile away. Unfortunately, they say things start to go with age and my eyesight has been one of those things. I never would have thought that I would need to wear eyeglasses, but I do now. I guess the one thing I can be thankful for is that I didn't have to wear them when I was younger. You have to understand, I was the most unattractive young child you have ever seen. So at least the kids couldn't add that to the many things they made fun of me for.
I am telling you this, because the other day my family went to Sam's Club to pick some things up. I had worn my glasses to drive because that is really the only time I need them. When we got inside, my hubby volunteered to hold them for me. He stuck them into the front of his shirt like I am sure you have seen people do. Well, the kids started getting fussy, as I am sure any of you with kids can understand. A one and three year old can only take so much shopping before boredom sets in. So, my hubby offered to take them out to the car while I checked out. This is when my prescription glasses met their tragic fate...
I checked out and started outside to find my husband sitting in the drivers seat of the car. You guys may not know this about me, but I like to be in the drivers seat if I am in the car. I may be a little controlling when it comes to driving, I admit it. Anyway, as I start to ask why he thinks he is driving, he hands me my beautiful glasses. The eyeglass frames were crushed and the lenses were all scratched up. He had apparently forgotten they were in his shirt and let them fall out. He then decided to squash them like a bug with his size 11 1/2 shoe.
There will be a memorial service this weekend for all who want to attend...... For the glasses, not my husband:)

They led a good life and got to see lots of things. Those things took a licking but apparently could not keep on tickin:)
That is tragic! It's fun to go shopping for glassses though :) My aunt works at an eye doctor and it's so fun to go in there and try 20 pairs on...even if I have perfect vision.
Been there done that.
