The Crux Of The Matter.

 
Wouldn’t it be great if I could write something that took more than 15 minutes of my attention.

I never have. I never will. Such is the true meaning of life for a man
 with the attention span of a gnat.

Of course I’ve never read anything of any consequence from any gnats. Maybe their works are out there. I can’t say I know anything of them.

Who you callin a gnat?

Carry Me Back To Ole Viginny

Hiding the shiner

 

After …. well iced

Quick road trip to visit The Doc and Grandson!! We rented a car to keep the miles off of our car. This morning at a rest stop, getting out of the car (Toyota Corolla) I twisted my foot and fell hard on my knees elbows and my face. Yes I smashed my face …. Bleeding … badly … . Toyota Corolla is a small low sitting car. And I hurt myself getting out of it. I also destroyed my glasses. So I iced my eye ( I have a serious shiner) and went to LensCrafters and they helped me out in 5 minutes . New frames …popped in the lenses …good to go . Multiple thanks and kudos to Lens Crafters in Roanoke by the mall. 

So we are here. Damaged goods but still alive. 

Thank you God for preventing what could have been much worse. 

Thank you  Lens Crafters for actual customer service and actual compassion. That is so rare nowadays and greatly greatly GEATLY appreciated. 

Now on to the visit
