Holiday eyeglass frames

In today’s fashion world, eyeglasses are often considered an important fashion accessory. That’s good news for people who actually have to WEAR eyeglasses! From what I understand, even people who wear contact lenses usually have a “backup pair” of eyeglasses for the rare occasion when they either can’t or don’t want to put in their contact lenses.

My sister-in-law wears contacts most of the time, but sometimes when she falls ill her doctor tells her to stop wearing her contacts and just wear her regular glasses while she is recovering. I don’t understand the medical reason for it; I just remember her telling us that. Anyway, most women feel that fashion eyeglasses can make or break an “outfit” and some folks like to have several pairs of glasses to choose from to accessorize what they are wearing.

The Zenni Optical Company has made it easier for consumers to own multiple pairs of glasses, by offering frames for as low as $8.00 per pair. They have a wide variety of Holiday frames that would be great to wear with any Holiday inspired outfit. They sell progressive/bifocal glasses, sunglasses, and wind goggles as well. They also provide anti-scratch coating and UV protection on the lenses for free!

Test results

My wife came home yesterday afternoon, a little bit frustrated because the test she took was a lot harder than she expected it to be, and because they told her that they would mail the results to her and it could take up to three weeks.  So she doesn’t know if she passed or not.  She suspects that she didn’t pass because there were a lot of questions that she simply guessed at.  She told me that the books she was told to read the prepare her for the test were of no help at all, and that she feels that she wasted an awful lot of time reading them.  So she is quite annoyed about that, and nervous about the test results.  She says if she gets a failing grade on the test that she’s going to wait a while before taking it again, she has to find out what are the correct books to study and it will take a while to study them.  I really hope she passed!  It is hard for her to find time to study.
