Good evening everyone!

Just a quick update on my sight test but first I'm pleased that Angie will have other eye done on Thursday. Good luck Angie and we shall be thinking of you. Anyway I had my sight test this morning and the optician said that my left eye hadn't changed but that my right eye had gone down two steps. She must have thought I seemed alarmed because after a few questions she said that my right eye was catching up with my left eye which made me feel more relieved.

I think the reason for me seeming alarmed is "two steps down" reminds me of dad's dementia taking a step down. Anyway I then chose some new frames and another member of the Specsavers staff spoke to me about my new glasses, sunglasses and prescription. She seemed older than the optician and I think more experienced at making people more relaxed. She described my left eye prescription as not changing but being worse than my right eye to which we agreed has always been like that and then I joked about my right eye wanting to catch up with my left eye. Several years ago there was no change in my sight and one year it was actually better!

My other news is that we had rain mid-morning and that one of my pupils gave me a tin of roses chocolates because she is taking a break from Piano lessons for her 11+. I have some news about Mr Jersey Tiger Moth, Mrs Comma Butterfly, Mr Holly Blue and Jacky which I shall post later.

This is the time when we start accumulating glasses!
I took 4 pairs to the opticians today in case I needed a prescription change which would work out very expensive. Thankfully I didn’t as there was only small changes to my right eye sight which didn’t need a change of lenses
What do you do with your old pairs? As I need some for driving & some for close work I tend to keep my old ones as spares as I like to keep a pair in my handbag then the other pair next to the settee! Another cheap supermarket pair are in the kitchen for when i need to read labels or recipes. If these drop on the floor & get damaged it’s not such a problem as they were less than £10 & funnily enough, the ones I like wearing the most as they are comfortable. Any spare spares are left at the opticians to donate.
I do have dry eyes which I’ve now got some drops for.
Goodluck to Angie for Thursday

I really didn't expect to get an appointment for my other eye so quickly, and it isn't particularly convenient timing, but I certainly couldn't turn it down ! Luckily, I hadn't gone back to wearing contact lenses in that eye just in case ! Obviously I hope not to need them ever again in either eye, just reading glasses. I've been wearing contact lenses for many years, so it seems a bit strange not having them ever again - I keep thinking I need to put them in! I once had some green ones, as I always liked the idea of green eyes, but they were too expensive to replace when my eyes changed, really.

I thought I would tell everyone about my sight test my eyes are very sensitive with hay-fever at the moment which also affects my stress levels. Right eye two steps down towards my left eye according to the optician.

Good evening everyone my name is Jersey Tiger Moth!

Natrah has been very worried about me because I haven't been around this summer until today. She thought that my home had been wrecked by rail workers clearing the fence behind the flat. Anyway she noticed a Comma Butterfly and a Holly Blue Butterfly but no tiger moths. However she didn't realise that I flew into the bathroom when she put Jacky out and whilst Jacky likes the bathroom scales and mop I decided to settle on the wicker basket before she put me out as well (see below).

Goodnight everyone

Jersey Tiger Moth, Jacky, Angel Daisy and Natrah

I had to phone the shop and explain to my colleague that I will be late due to getting a moth out of the bathroom!
