Don't be me .....

Wear your safety glasses!
Working on the lawn Friday afternoon ang grab the trimmer. I say to myself. "Myself you keep saying you should wear safety glasses. Nah, I need new ones and will get some."
Within 30 seconds a pebble comes at me at a million miles and hour and whack! Right in the eye. So now stupid goes and puts on the glasses. Looking through them I'm like now I know why I don't wear them, everything is hazy and I can't see s##t. I take the glasses off and realize it's not the glasses. I try not to panic and finish the lawn. Can barely keep my eye open.
Next morning it's even worse. Off to the walk in clinic. They look at it and send me to emerg. They look at it and give me a slip for emergency ophthalmologist for Sunday morning. All the time I'm think how stupid I was. Sunday morning still foggy. I spend 5 hours before getting to see the doc. After an exam they find only a scratch. Some drops and I'm good to go. What a crappy weekend! Monday morning and almost normal vision.
I'm still mad at myself as we need 2 eyes!
Wear your safety glasses!
