Eye Exam

Tuesday, June 3, 2008, 07:31 PM [General]

I had my first eye exam since my illness. I was afraid my eyes had been effected and I was right. There was quite a change in my eye sight, and not for the better. I got my new specs today and I can see so much better. They are great, another thing to appreciate.

Results of blog on Lowes

Thursday, May 22, 2008, 03:51 PM [General]

In my last blog a told of my trials and tribulations with Lowes. I received a call from the manager of our local Lowes after I made a call to the corporate office. The lady at the corporate office was very nice and assured me the problem would be fixed. The manager told me he is now aware of the problem and has taken steps to eliminate it. I will give them time to make corrections and let you know.
