      They already canceled school for the kids tomorrow and it’s 38*F outside right now. Not even raining.
      Granted we are in Maryland so most folks here don’t handle snow very well. Great excuse to take the kids skiing though.

        I sent an old pair of jeans into this woman I found on Etsy today… to make a welding cap out of it. I have a feeling the 21 oz denim is going to smoke her sewing machine. But she agreed to try. I am so excited to upcycle one of my retired pairs. If this works she makes all kind of awesome hats, so I am super excited.

                Sounds awesome, post pics of the result is good!

                          Went for an eye exam today…

                          My left eye vision has deteriorated from 20/25 to 20/70 in just one year... My right eye went from 20/20 to 20/25..... time for glasses.

                          Glasses shopping is DIFFICULT.

                          Thinking to shave of my beard to get a better feel of what will truly look good on my face.

                            go with clear ones. They match everything. People with compliment you about how brilliant they are too.

                              So far i'm learning towards a pair of brown Ralph Lauren frames… kinda inconspicuous and understated

                              I actually really like the old school military issue S9 frames.

                                  @UnTucked  'Grats!  Once you get up to the 20/500 range, Christmas trees look waaaay prettier.  I recommend it.

                                  Anyways… I like my Ogi frames.  Made in Japan and have thus far stood up to frequent punishment, courtesy of fatherhood  😃

                                      I don't know why these independent companies feel the need to put their location in their name.

                                        My advice with glasses is to try lots of things on. Finding something that works is trial and error.

                                        And be brave. Life is too short for boring frames.

                                          I wear contacts daily, and only wear my glasses when at home and in the evening.

                                          The best pair I've ever had are Ray Ban original aviators with prescription lenses.
                                          They still look new and I enjoy the larger lenses.

                                            I considered aviators… they're the only frames I've ever worn, because I've always felt they're the only ones that look good on me.

                                            I don't know if I want to be "that guy" all day everyday tho, lol
