It's been a busy day for me. I finally got around to using my SAD lamp and reading then H called and said he's test driving a car, brought it by our mechanic, mechanic said the car is sound despite a few cosmetic issues (cracks in the windshield, a bit of paint peeling off), but not really a biggie as both our cars have tons of peeling paint and H's car has had a cracked windshield forever. Every time he's gotten it replaced, it's been less than a month later before it's gotten a chip or crack again (hard to avoid rocks flying at you from big wheelers on the freeway). Right now we're keeping H's Jeep, I guess until it completely breaks and we can no longer drive it on the surface streets. If my daughter gets her license this summer like I want then it would be nice to have a 3rd car if I needed to go someplace not that far away like the grocery store or my pdoc. I haven't seen and ridden in the car while H was test driving it but haven't driven it myself yet. H is still over at the dealership dealing with the buying process.

Things ran behind today because I also saw the eye doc in the morning. One of my eyes got better, one got worse. When it comes to contacts, I need only to wear a lens in one eye to have good vision. I did buy some contact lenses for the eye with astigmatism though I can get around fine without contacts, so I only got a box of 30 lenses and if I wear them more often, I'll order some more online. I ordered a set a progressive lens glasses too just as a bit of a backup.

I can't even imagine what the credit card bills are going to be like this past month, astronomical. Also H & my daughter went to the eye doctor yesterday and both ordered glasses too, so ouch! And now a car on top of it. At least we have the money in our bank account to pay for the car outright from the dealer, so we won't be paying it off on a lease.

I painted some chanterelle musrooms, not really sure they turned out though.
