Prescription Eyeglasses

Our helper has been having problems with her eyes ever since she was young (or so she told us), and so she asked me where I got my eyeglasses. I told her that we visit our optometrist at least once a year and she has been the one who usually gets my glasses for my son and I. Admittedly, it is a bit expensive than the ones I usually find in optical shops, but I trust our doctor and support her, so it's fine by me.

I informed our helper, though, about finding cheap and affordable eyeglasses online, which was even featured at ClarkHoward.com; if you want to check it out, then do click this link: http://clarkhoward.com/liveweb/shownotes/2007/06/27/12362/. I am of course talking about Zenni Optical, a site where you can really get affordable prescription eyeglasses since they have eliminated the "middlemen" and instead go directly to their customers. I believe that's really a great idea since this way more and more people will be encouraged to visit their site as well as use their services. My helper is actually thinking of checking them out since her cousin also have the same problem: finding cheaper but quality eyeglasses.

What about you? In need of good quality but affordable eyeglasses? Then do check out ZenniOptical.com as well, and you'll see why they get featured in some sites every now and then! :)

Getting Online

It's really quite sad that I haven't had the chance to go online whenever I want to. Yup, things are still kind of hectic around here, and so some of the meme (will try to do it whenever i have more time, ECL!!! really so sorry for the delay) that I was given are still on hold. Haven't even gotten to participate in some of my favorite daily "posts" anymore.

But am not bitter, lol. Just sad. :)

Anyway, will of course still log-in every now and then. I like blogging, that's why. ;P

Patience ...

Hubby and I were talking one time about car insurance and how much it would cost us if we do decide to buy a new car. Sure, we have a vehicle already, but it's a company car. Though of course eventually it will be hubby's car soon after about two years (yup, it's on a "car plan" wherein the user will pay a certain percentage of the car's worth in about five years). It is a pick-up, and kind of big for our garage, that's why we thought of getting a car on our own. Or maybe we'll think about that seriously after the pick-up gets to be ours ... two years isn't such a long long time. :)

Dream Visit...

My aunt and uncle who used to live in the USA have always wanted to visit Las Vegas before they retire. It's a good thing they found out about las vegas nv, and they did get the chance to visit the place! They said that they had a fun time there and were certainly glad that they had the chance before coming back home. I've seen some pictures of them in Las Vegas together with some friends and they sure looked like they all had a fun time! How I wish I'd have the chance to do that one of these days, too. :)

Wordless Wednesday: Sleeping ... again. ;P

Rambling ...

At the rate that I seem to be eating these days, I feel like I'll be needing one of those diet pills! Am not so sure why, but food somehow seems to be tasting real good these past few days. Or maybe it's because we've been eating take outs more too often. lol. Still, I know I should be more careful. I'm not as young (or as active!) as I used to be ... :)
