2 types of contacts:

I didn't stop till well after midnight last night so it was a little late to blog, technically would've been two entries for today anyway so...two tonight!  

Yesterday was eye appointment day. Dilation and exams and all the stuff that helps keep eyeballs healthy.  I can't see very far in front if me without glasses or contacts but overall my eyes aren't nearly as bad as some.  I sure appreciate having a great ophthalmologist to help me keep them healthy. His staff and especially his optician are awesome as well.  It's always a blessing to be able to get good care, I've certainly said that before, but yesterday I received an added blessing. My vision actually improved slightly in one eye and didn't change in the other!!  I believe that was the first time since I started wearing corrective lenses that the my distance prescription got better.  Very exciting and I'm very thankful!  So, the first type of contact?...the kind that go in my eyes!

The second type is totally different.  For months I have been talking about the Blondes vs. Brunettes flag football game to benefit the Alzheimer's association. Well today was GAMEDAY!  While the experience has indeed been a blessing, the fact that combined, both teams were able to raise almost $20,000 for care, support, and research is the biggest blessing that came out if this. It's a great cause and a awesome non-profit that does so much good, I'm so glad we were able to contribute. Not a bad amount for a first year event either!!  Second type of contact?...the kind that comes from football plays! (This girl "tackled" 3 flags :D ).
