It's April already?

Where did the year go? I just can't believe it's gone by so fast. It seems like yesterday we were planning for Christmas!!

Well, the weather is still shocking, so I've been keeping warm in my awesome socks! They are long stripey over-the-knee socks, and I did without cigarettes for a whole day to buy these!

In other news, I've got some kind of colour blindness and screwed up peripheral vision. A trip to the optician confirmed it yesterday =o(. I've been referred to my GP and the eye hospital for further tests to see what strain of colour blindness I have (which cone is damaged and whether it's one or both eyes) and to try and do something with the peripheral vision. I'm hoping I don;t have to have those stupid patches again like I did have for my astigmatism when I was a kid. I have, however got a new pair of glasses on order, and my first pair of perscription sunglasses.

The everyday glasses are thick black plastic frames (think librarian) with a small gold flower type detail on the arm. The sunglasses are thick black plastic frames too with black diamante detail on the arms. Whilst I'm looking forward to something different, it's going to be a huge change and they'll take a lot of getting used to. The optician and Des both said they looked nice and suited me, but I'm not so sure yet. Don't worry though, you'll get pictures next Tuesday or Wednesday! Then you can decide for yourself.

In the meantime, here's some pretty pictures of my nice socks! They're so comfy and I'm in love!!
