Well, fork over the address, lady. (Pm of course)

I don't get very many b'day cards. Most people just write Happy birthday on my Christmas card. Annoyed
aww hug
Last year was my first birthday/christmas not living at home so they all felt bad for me

My mom always made sure my birthday was a big deal since it was so close to Christmas though

and I can talk her into making yummy Caramel Pecan Chocolate Cake drool

When I got mine...I noticed that I could instantly see the item (place) I moved my eyes to see...but I don't recall if I needed a day or so to get used to them...it's been a while.

I did have to get this new pair of glasses redone as the doc mis-wrote the Rx for the left eye...it was off 90 degrees!EEK! Now it's all good.
The optometrist said it takes a minute to adjust because my right eye is stronger than my left and it's trying to compensate. They've always been like that, though and I don't know why these would be different. I've never been to him before and I'm wondering if he got the prescription wrong. He was very unwilling to consider that when I told him what was happening. I need to go back in a few days, but I don't know how long I'm going to be able to deal with this.

Have you heard about the $5 signup coupon? I bought some off ebay because I'm lazy and today I got some free stuff for Chrismas presents. Good thing, I found out about them because otherwise I would go broke buying stuff for all the nieces, nephews, parents, etc

Ok, I'm not MQing all of you. laugh out loud

For those that do, how long did it take to get adjusted to them? I've worn regular ones for way longer than I should have (my astigmatism wasn't as bad as it is now) so I'm switching from those to Acuvue astigmatism.
The thing is, when I look up from the monitor or look in a different area, my eyes have to adjust each time. It's really weird and it's giving me a headache. I don't know if this is normal or if they got my prescription wrong. (I just got them a few hours ago.) Any experiences like this? Or, once they're in, they're fine?
I think it took me a day to get used to the difference. It feels weird at first. I would wait a week and if they feel weird go back to the eye doc. My optometrist gave me a trial pack for a week to see how they felt.

You have to admit your post about astigmatism was pretty offensive.

Thanks Nessy. I'll give it a couple of days and see how they feel. I wanted to be sure I wasn't alone in this weird feeling.

I'm being observed by two of my supervisors tomorrow. I'll be stumbling around. My kids are going to think I'm drunk. Roll

Thanks hug

DH and my kiddo have been coughing and sneezing (and whining) for more than a week.

Look on ebay I got 20 of them suckers for $3. I'm going to the one near my job every day of the week and then the one near my house.
