Funny Thing Happened Yesterday

The photo was snapped from inside the car, on my way to my eye appointment yesterday. Large open field with hay bales in the distance and clouds above. The funny part of my story is when I was in the exam room at the eye doctor. Had my reading glasses on, and my mask. Reading the letters on the chart. Was having problems reading and I thought, oh no, I will need new glasses for sure. Then the nurse said to pull my mask down a little, maybe my reading glasses were getting fogged up. Too funny, that is exactly what happened. Passed the test. No new glasses needed. Good for another year.

That's funny! Hubs had the same problem signing the contract for our new deck. The contractor told him not to worry and do his best.

Carol, does that mean you won't be wearing glasses for the next year, or you won't have new glasses? Amazing shot as usual! I personally love this one cause it looks like s picture that I could find in a magazine!

I am glad that it was not your eyes. Another member posted about making an error in filling out a form as her glasses were fogged up. Love the photo, very pretty. There is something beautiful in the simplicity of hay bales in a field isn't there?

@Juliaacv It is so muggy here the last week or so, that doesn't help at all.

Wearing a mask and glasses at the same time isn't pleasant at all.

The colors in that pic are pretty awesome. Did you use a filter? Masks can cause issues sometimes.

Good news for you then those masks do fog and mist up the glasses.

That's awesome you don't need new glasses. Amazing what a mask will do to hinder doing things like reading.

Lucky that the nurse noticed what was happening. I keep fogging up my glasses too when I wear a mask.

@CarolDM I love the green and the sky is very interesting. My eyes have gotten worse now, but, I cannot get new glasses because of working at the computer so I have one pair for far away and one pair for reading. I get it because they fogged up you had a hard time reading them. That is funny.

Ahh, the new normal. If you pinch the mask around your nose, you shouldn't have the fogging problem.

This is a common issue now with the mask. The glasses always fogged with the mask. and they also not fit well in the ear when the mask is on.
