Good morning all from a very frosty Glasgow, it's definitely much colder than yesterday.
Mick, sounds like a pleasant day out in store and and hopefully you will avoid the workmen, an added bonus!.
I'm off out early for an eye appointment. I have to have an eye test every year, as some of my medication can affect my sight.
I'm having problems reading just now because of my Sjogren's, the lenses on my eyes are so dry. Reading is one of my greatest pleasures, so it's annoying me. New glasses won't help, but I may treat myself, anyway.
DIL will do part of my tests, then of course I will get a nice discount. .
We have a little routine, I come for the appointment, she has a selection frames ready for me to choose from , whether I need new glasses or not. DH, my chauffeur, is none the wiser! .
I would go on my own, (and incorporate a visit to the M&S outlet), but I won't be able to see due to those blasted drops!!?
Oh, the wiles of we women.
The proposed new glasses are to complement my new image! .
I went for a quick cut and blow dry yesterday and came back with a completely different hairstyle.
I got an early morning call, saying my hairdresser had to go to hospital for a meeting about her poor dad, but a former sylist, was down from Skye, visiting, would I mind if she stepped into the breach. She was my daughter's hairdresser, so I knew she would make a good job of it.
I was so desperate to get my thick mane cut, I would have let the gardener do! . You can see how bad it was.
After complaining it was so hard to manage, after having it cut just five weeks ago, ( My sore hands and generally feeling yukky, are making things difficult, ) she suggested cutting it shorter, using a razor. I absolutely LOVE it!
I'm now contemplating leather trousers to complete my new trendy look. Should I ask other grans for their opinion? , .
Oh what a terrible thought, a vertically challenged, round, old lady in tight leather trousers, the natives would be traumatised!!!
Reading this back, I come across as really shallow. I'm not! It's all tongue in cheek, I promise!!! .
Thinking of Harrigran and her troubles, Dragonfly and of course Gilly. .
Wishing everyone a pleasant day, whatever your plans..
