Once You Hit 40…

I finally went to the Optometrist because it has been 4-5 years and I really need new glasses. After going through all of the tricks and blurred eye testing this was the conversation:

Him: yeah, you are 40, huh? 

Me: yes sir. 

Him: well, you need bifocals…

Me: yes, I figured as much.

Him: don’t feel bad, everyone needs them at some point after 40.

Me: okay, I don’t feel bad.

Him: seriously, it happens after 40.

Me: seriously, I am okay with it. 

Now, this is just me, but I think he needs to work on his “bed side manner” lol.

At any rate, I have trifocals now and it is not near as bad as I was dreading. I can now see distance (which was starting to be a bit tough and important when driving), I can see my computer (also important), and I can read on my phone (which I have not been able to do for a year or so, probably longer). 

Pfft! Whatever, now that I can see again, 40 never looked so good!
