Gloom
It was sort of a miserable day, starting off with an ambush of rain and me, on my way to Markham by TTC for a cardiac stress test. The first umbrella I took with me launched itself across the road, using the handle and main stem as a sling shot. Now, how does that happen...? So I stopped at Shoppers Drug Mart for a replacement. The prices make no sense at all - more expensive for a tiny, manual one.
For the past couple of years I've been passing an optical boutique in the underground concourse on my way to the subway. Last week I stopped to look at the frames and discovered the most unique, artistic designs, all from France. How come it's taken so long to come up with such delightful eyewear. So I now have a pair but it's hard to appreciate the 3-d structure from the picture. Even the case is snazzy. I feel compelled to get a second pair with the transition lenses so that I don't always have to change over to sunglasses.
When stocking up on catfood yesterday, I came across a laser light device for making the girls frisky and interested in some play. I don't even have to operate it - it moves the light around all by itself. Tayoh showed a bit of interest and tried to pick up the beam with her paw. Amber fell asleep on the sofa despite the beam landing on her forehead. Too old for play, I guess.

I love those glasses!!
Love your new glasses. Know what you mean with the umbrellas, I'm now on # 6 since spring. Big deal that they have a 25year guarantee, who's going to run into traffic to collect them. My cat would be all over that laser toy. We get him going with a flash light just for some play, the unfortunate part is that when he doesn't catch the light he gets angry and bites. If I had to write a report card I'd have to say Keehan doesn't play well with others.
Those are very cool glasses. I'm heavily into glasses mode these days. Had to get a new script for driving glasses as I can't adapt to bi-focally things. I guess we'll have to start looking at more and more of these "accessories".
