Yesterday amidst all the sleeplessness I went and did something that peeved me right off.
I broke my sunnies. They looked broken anyway. I had placed them on the passenger side seat when out doing jobs with Hubbie and baby boy, and I did that because when I put baby boy in his seat, often my sunnies hit the top of the car since they’re on my head… being all sleep-deprived and crap, I thought ‘let me spare them.’
And then my butt spared them. đ¤Ļââī¸
I didn’t hear any crunch, but I did suddenly feel them against my lower back when I sat down, of course since I had forgotten I had put them there a minute ago, you know sleep deprivation and all…
I was really shattered. I was so upset already about other things, (including no sleep forever) I started to cry. Hubbie was like, ‘don’t cry over your sunnies.’
But it was so much more.
I was like, how much more shit could I take?
Secondly, I really loved this pair.
Thirdly, if I could get them repaired, how could I even go anywhere what with our crazy schedules?
And last, I actually had a voucher for a Sunglass Hut, but again, NO TIME, so again, this just felt like another job to add to the to-do list, the current ever-growing list that seems to always have stuff being added to it, with no set end date, a real proper frustrating work-in-progress list.
But then overnight, something happened.
Other than sleep (praise đ) things were occurring to me.
I had already decided that I needed to get some more navy pants for baby girl for school, and that we might go this afternoon.
I had also realised that this shopping centre had a Sunglass Hut. I bought my sunnies from another centre, which is why I kept forgetting this other, closer one, could actually, possibly help me with my problem…
Anyway, fast forward to this afternoon, and we popped into the Sunglass Hut. I was there, showing her my sunnies, asking about repairing them…
And the sales assistant had a look over, and then very gently popped them into place!
I WAS SO GRATEFUL!
She even tightened the sides and gave my lenses a clean (bless) and I was oh so grateful I bought some more sunglass lens cleaner so she could at least get something out of my visit.
Sure they are a little firm on that damaged side, but I’m so happy I get to keep wearing them, I don’t care.
And that my friends is the extra light in my day that gave me a jump in my step. đ
