In my post yesterday, Little Downtown Park, I mentioned that I picked up my new glasses.

Last night at Bible study people were stunned and shocked at how much different I looked with my new glasses. One of my little friends did not know who I was until I pulled my pen out of my pocket. As soon as he saw his favorite toy he knew who I was.

This afternoon I posted this picture to Instagram with the following caption:

Not sure why people are shocked by my new glasses. They are not that big of a change from my old pair.

Today at work the buzz started the moment I walked in the door. One friend looked at me in shock for several seconds before she could even speak. I saw many puzzled looks as to who I was and other interesting reactions.

Here are the old glasses. They are darker colored and not as round, but really not a big change. I am not sure why people had such a big reaction.

Maybe it was the haircut. I usually only get my hair cut about every three months, so people usually notice it.

Here are my glasses from two years ago. There is a much bigger change from these as they are much more rectangular. I now need to have glasses that have more height as they help with reading.

My glasses are closer to what they were five years ago. These have lighter colored frames and are less rectangular.

I guess people will eventually get used to my new glasses.
