Tons of ~ma for all those dealing with aging parents.
Mom and stepdad actually have insurance that covers nursing homes and assisted living places and are fine with those options, especially if they start to get dementia.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Hahaha Brenda, you can see your priorities. Packers were super fast and efficient today, so hopefully that bodes well for Sunday.
They were done before I even got out of the optometrist. Speaking of which, I need hive mind input for new glasses. [link]
One set is titanium like what I have now, so lighter and more durable but more than double the price. But it comes with a magnetic sunglasses clip on. It would be in gunmetal, unlike the photo. The other set is a much greater digression from what I have now, and is cheaper but heavier.
I haven't changed these since 2011 when my vision stopped changing so rapidly. I used to have new styles every year! Now I can't make as trendy choices because they need to last, hopefully, but I don't want to get stuck in that thing where you can identify my decade of choice by my eyewear for the rest of my life.
So I dunno! I think the SO prefers the titaniums.

Lighter and more durable, for something you wear all the time, is totally worth it.

I really like the semi-cateye shape of one set of frames, but I think the other shape looks better on you. And more durable and lighter is worth the extra money.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Lighter is better. IME you'll regret heavier glasses.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, sue, I suspect I like the idea of the pseudo cat-eye in concept. I was thinking it might counteract the Asian shape of my eye, but I think maybe it accentuates it instead? I like the other one fine too, I was just thinking I'd make a bigger change, but maybe I don't need to? I know the picture is less focused so it is a little hard to tell, perhaps.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I prefer the ones with the clip, they framed your face better.

I thought they were cute ... and I like that the dresses are girly and the patterns are the kind of thing I'd probably have enjoyed and not everything is pink.
