I'm getting New Glasses!

I didn't make it to the gym yesterday because I had an eye appointment. I did make it today though.

Anyway, I'm getting new glasses. I usually do every couple years. Since I'm getting the same type of lenses I have now, anti-scratch and glare, transistion, they were a little more than I wanted to spend but they're worth it.

I  had a hard time picking out frames. I had gone in with my heart set on red, I don't know why because I haven't found a pair yet that look good on me. I also wanted metal, but they had so many nice plastic frames, that I almost picked a pair of those. With the cold weather we get here in Iowa though, I was afraid that plastic ones would break which has happened before.

I was able to find metal ones that I did like though, in green. Not a dark green, but a really pretty green that really brings out the blue of my eyes. I can't wait to get them.

They did have the same frames in blue, but they were too much like the ones I have now and I wanted something different. They did have a pair of orange and purple ones, but although they looked good on me, they were plastic frames and aren't the Bronco's colors orange an purple, or are they orange and blue? Since I'm not a Bronco's fan, well...

As far as the gym, my back was hurting but I was still able to get my workout done. I did cut the time I spent on the treadmill short though. I need to get Dave to crack my back when he gets home.

I really enjoy going there. The owners make it fun. One of them is my personal trainer. He's certified, so he knows what he's doing.

I've been neglectful of my blog

Looks like I haven't written anything since May. In fact when I went to get on it earlier this evening, it didn't come up, I had to search for it. I thought they had deleted it, but thankfully, they didn't.

The biggest thing I've done is join a gym and start training with a personal trainer. Until I started keeping track of what I was eating though, I wasn't getting the results I wanted, but now the pounds are coming off, so I'm happy.

We lost the second of our three ponies, War, last month. He was also my favorite. Now we're down to one.

The pups are all doing fine. Max's allergies are really bothering him this year, even with the prescription he's on. They're saying that it's been because of all the rain we've gotten. which has been quite a bit. They're saying that we're supposed to have above average precipitation this winter, so we'll see.

I just wanted to catch you all up on things, but it's late, so I will sign off for now. Good night and sleep well.
