It's November!

I haven't really written any updates for our actual life lately, so here goes.
This month should be called Novem-brrrrrrrrr!  We caved and turned the heat on.  Finally...  I don't know why that's such a big deal for me.  I feel really guilty about it every year.
I'm also working on a Thankful Post, so look forward to that on Thanksgiving day!  I still haven't found a job yet.  Hoping that something will work out soon!
Cameron is working on getting some certifications for work.  They are super hard, but he loves it.  Work has been so much better with his new boss!  But in other news, our insurance plan will now cost a ton more than last year.  Yay.  Have I mentioned how much I HATE insurance companies?
We love living in the new duplex,!  It just has this nice feeling to it.  It's hard to explain...  We are just so much happier here than in the other place.  You will have to come and visit to see what I mean :)




Thanks for reading,



Love,

I Can See Clearly Now

 No, really I can!  Today Cameron and I went to the ophthalmologist to get our eyes checked.  Sounds super boring, right?  We had to call around for quite a while before we could find a place that could fit us in.  We basically had to hustle over there before the next person showed up.  But, we made it!
The cool thing is, we were able to get contacts.  Even since I was very young, my eyes have needed glasses.

 For the first time in years I am able to see without glasses on!  It is so crazy.  I had a really hard time getting them in the first time.  I kept on blinking them out.  The lady was very patient with me and I was eventually able to put them in.  (That was nothing compared to her trying to get me to take the air puff glaucoma test.)  I was so grateful to her, she was so kind.
It is so weird to look around and not see my glasses frames.  I can see peripherally without any blurriness.  I look so odd in the mirror.  Don't get me wrong though, I completely love it!  Being glasses free is amazing!  Although, we are only allowed to wear them for a certain amount of time each day.  Pretty soon I will be wearing them all day!




PS:  Yes I do know that having a post dedicated solely to eye care is kind of a testament to how unexciting my life is, but hey, I love it.
