Contacts

OK, so last weekend I am out doing my usual weekend errands. One of which was trying to find my contact lens solution, called Complete.

So, I look at Wal-mart, Zellers, two different Shoppers stores and can't find it. I think this is bizarre, since these are all major retail outlets and they should carry it.

So, later that night I am on the internet and decide to Google the name of the solution. Up comes these stories of this solution being being recalled back in May. Mean while I have been using it for months and had no idea anything was wrong with it. Turns out some people have been having serious eye infections and I guess they all used the Complete solution, so the company voluntarily pulled it from the shelves, hence the problem finding any.

I couldn't believe I had not heard about this. So I contact my eye doctor and of course they recommend you discontinue use and throw out your lenses.

So, I am now using this Opti-Free stuff, which my doctor gave me a starter kit of. I have to say though, my eyes feel horrible. They don't feel the same with this new solution. I am hoping my eyes will adjust, but geez I kind of wish I could go back to the Complete stuff.

I am hoping the Complete solution will come back at some time, after of course they figure out what happened.

Meanwhile I am on the cancellation list for my eye doctor for an appointment, otherwise they are booking into November.

MIA

Hello everyone. Yes, I know I have been MIA lately.

Last weekend I was at my friend's Heather & Will's wedding on Saturday. The vows were done at Trinity United in Peterborough and the reception was held at the Curling Club. It was funny during the exchanging of vows we could all hear like ambulance sirens outside, so when we were all outside the church afterwards, there had been this car accident pretty much right next door to the church, and a few police cars were blocking off part of the road and you would see people driving by and seeing both the wedding and the car accident. Funny.

They actually took a group photo of everyone on the church steps with the bride and groom. Can't wait to see how the picture turns out.

The reception was nice, I thought the highlight was the speeches, when the best man and maid of honour got up and talked about Heather and Will and what their friendships over the years had meant to them. It was very touching.

I was very touched that Heather and Will would think of me on their wedding day, and I have promised Will that we will do a monthly get together.

I know I already sent her a belated birthday greeting, but I would be remiss not to mention it again.

Happy Birthday to Anna, on September 2nd.

Everyone wish Anna happy belated birthday greetings.
