Go mac being helpful!
Go P-C getting good reviews! (Hopefully when you take the car to the dealer it'll be covered by warranty or something super easy to fix?)
I also got two Zoya polishes and blame y'all (Yasmeen and Anja).
And we live to fight another day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Go, mac!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Burrell, none of it was self-directed. There was a lot of clean that area right there. pick up all the candy wrappers and throw them away. vacuum the whole rug, both ways. pick up all the books and take them to your room.

He's 10? At that age, I'm not sure I would have been able to hear "clean the room" and know what to do. I'm not really sure I'd be able to do it now -- I still need specific directions.

Yay, mac!
Burrell, I have had progressives for years (tri-focals) and I like them. Personally, I would go nuts trading between multiple pairs of glasses and I'd be afraid of misplacing the "other" pair if they weren't on my face.
I'm chiming in on the pro-progressives. It does take some getting used to, but I only have to keep track of one pair of glasses. I wear sunglasses that are made to fit over them so I wear them no matter what I'm doing.
I will also agree that I think the magnifying part is a bit small because my lenses are not very big. I need new glasses and I think I will get something that is a bit rounder on the bottom so I will have more area to magnify.

I had to go with tri-focals because I work on a computer all day, so I need the midrange in addition to reading close and far away. I got a pair of just far aways that I was going to use for driving, but I started forgetting which pair I was using because I couldn't tell the difference. So now I'm just wearing--I think--the progressives. I'm thinking with my next glasses--depending on how things deteriorate--that I'll just go with mid-range/computer and far away, and take my glasses off for close-up needlework and reading. Or the magnifiers and look really dorky.

I wear bifocals. I have regular contacts too.
The contacts are great for mid-to long distance. The glasses are fine for mid-to short but neither is really great for real close work. (Threading a needle for example.)
In theory I can wear my contacts with reading glasses but I find that it doesn't work that way at all.
