We had cause for a big celebration yesterday. Chris went back to the eye doc because the glasses she received just weren’t right. They were giving her headaches, and the vision from one eye to the other just didn’t match up. She felt like she was going, in her words, “crazy in the head.”
The
tech checked her over with a fine tooth comb this time. I’ve never seen them
turn so many knobs and push so many buttons. In the end it was established that
the tech who did the measurements last time probably made a significant
typographical error. Somehow, she put down a plus instead of a minus in the
equation (or the other way around). It resulted in a vision measurement of
20/130 instead of 20/20. Not exactly a correction. They apologized and handed
us a new prescription. No charge. Better yet? Here’s the celebration … Chris is
not crazy in the head after all.
We
carried that new prescription right over to where we picked up the glasses. We
avoided the rank-and-file employee and went straight to the top. Good thing.
She scanned the new script and vowed to send it in right away. She couldn’t
promise anything, but she did request a hurry-up so Chris could really see
Hawaii.
We
also had another errand to run. We had one week left to get the truck inspected
and get the registration sticker. Fortunately, our mechanic Dennis was at work,
so we dropped it off on our way to Chris’ appointment. He got it taken care of,
and I was able to get to the courthouse for the sticker. Took a while there
because of a long line, but check off that box. Done.
Proverbs 27:17 says, “As
iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
Father,
thank you for the correction in Chris’ glasses. It would sure be great for her
to get the new ones before we leave for Hawaii. Amen.
