Education, Exercise & Eyewear

We've added a few new things to our routines lately. 1st off, Ryan is back in school this semester! He's taking an industrial math class at MCC and seems to be breezing through it so far. We both hope it keeps going that way. His first quiz is coming up soon... 2nd, I now have glasses. Ryan recently went in to reorder some contacts, so I finally decided it was time to have an eye exam after about four years of blurry road signs. As it turns out I'm near-sighted. It's not a huge deal, but I do have to get used to putting on the ol' spectacles every time I drive. The difference in my sight with them on is amazing! I might post a pic. of me waering them sometime, but only if I were going to be posting that photo anyway. 3rd, thanks to Kristy & Kevin, we now have an elliptical machine! It's not because we made some New Year's resolution that will never be kept to lose a bunch of pounds or anything. We both really just want to be more healthy, so we thought we would try out the machine that the Johnson's were wanting to sell anyway. So far so good. Ryan feels the burn at least three times a week, and I'm on it that often too. Ryan also just finished gluing the caps on the planter. I can almost taste those home grown veggies!

I didn't get my glasses until my 3rd year of college (2002), I finally decided it was time because I couldn't see the powerpoint stuff my teacher was putting up. I was amazed also at how much clearer my world became, I didn't realize how blurry things had been. Hope you found a pair you like.
