1. From my last eye exam and scleral contacts’ fitting, a new prescription was given to me since my right eye has gotten significantly worse.

Keratoconus is doing a number on it. Thus, my lenses are thicker, but my frames are so CUTE! These are the second new pair of glasses that I ordered from Zenni Optical because I love to have a backup pair just in case something happens to the main pair.

But I also switch them up to give myself a little visual pizzazz.

2. Jernee Timid finally wore her raincoat outside in the nasty weather we were having on Tuesday of this week.

The Little Monster usually only likes to put it on and stay inside. She’ll walk to the door and just stop. But on Tuesday, she wore her raincoat multiple times as we went out for her potty breaks and seemed to thoroughly enjoy it as well.

Jernee: My Little Monster Protector

a raging storm sweeps the city
pulls up trees and downs power lines
and a little monster who slayed dragons
and warded off a lochness sea creature
counts sheep on my bed

staring at the rise and fall of her belly
I wonder, “how much action is her brain
dishing out as she sleeps? who is she
fighting now?”

surrounded by her favorite toys
love tucks her in
and I fade into the background
lose myself in words
and wait for the storm to pass
