Reasons to be cheerful one two three – Day 4

1.      Had my eyes tested and as suspected my prescription has changed quite a lot in 2 years. The good news is I managed to find the exact same frames I have now (which I am more than happy with) so I’ve ordered 2 pairs on a 2 for 1 offer. The price all in (lenses, tints, varifocals x2) is still £10 cheaper than the only frames I liked in the shop where I got my eyes tested. And that was before that opticians added on the £210 cost of the lenses! Ha ha you’re having a laugh, Vision Express, mate. Spec Savers it is then.

2.     SDMB summaries are up! And apart from the fact I’ll be amazed if any artist wants to pick my fic – bloody hell my summary sucks – I’ve managed to get my shortlist of 3. Well 4 really with another 3 that could have been on my list, but I’m not changing my mind again. There were literally only 2 summaries that I thought, nope, I would want to touch that one. So much delicious candy to pick from! Yum.

3.     I think I’ve finished my spn_j2_xmas fill. And the nice thing about that is, I can leave it for a while and come back to it fresh to see if I’m right or not – there’s so much time! Plus if I think about it a bit more I might be able to illustrate it as well.

Can totally empathize with trying to find the right frames and getting a good price. Glad you got the ones you want!

And wow, you are way ahead of the curve - congrats on finishing the Xmas fill :D

SO EXCITED ABOUT SUMMARIES.

*wants to hear all about your shortlist*

oh my gosh. I can't believe you've already finished your xmas gift. I've been so wrapped up in my SDMB that I haven't even *thought* of anything else...

and there is lots to do!!

Congrats on finishing your spn_j2_xmas fill! I love when I have time to let a piece sit for a while before posting.

Here I was thinking that I was doing well with a simple idea for my xmas fic and you've written yours!! Well, if that's not motivation to get mine started I don't know what is!

It's a great feeling knowing that you have a first draft. Well done you (I'm totally not jealous at all!!!)
