Recently I purchased my now third pair of eyeglasses from Zenni Optical. Have you ever even paid attention the the PD or (pupillary distance) on your prescription from the eye doctor? I know I hadn’t until my first order of eyeglasses. After reading up on the topic online I found that people are really making a big deal of this having to get your PD measurement. Honestly, I don’t understand what the big deal is. When you can get a nice pair of glasses for under $20 at Zenni Optical then you are still saving a ton of money even if you have to pay your eye doctor $30-$40 for a measurement. But, let’s back up just a minute, if you look into what your PD really is you will see that it’s not as crucial a measurement as you might think. It is simply the distance between your pupil. You can have your optician take this measurement or you can do it with a mirror and a ruler. Oh by the way, I just held a ruler up to my nose and looked in the mirror, take it in milimeters, took a guess and have had now three pair of glasses that have fit me perfectly.
Given the state of the current economy, a growing number of Americans with ordinary lives are choosing to scale down — way down. They call themselves the “tiny house”
I was talking with my brother this morning about what he should do about the mortgage on his home. I know he is way behind in payments and is now scheduled for a foreclosure sale and obviously is pretty intimidated. So, ofcourse the first thing we did was start searhing the internet for answers. What we found was that this is not something you want to go at alone. In other words, hire an attorney or at least get there advice on what to do. Well, I found this article at American Residential Law Group that was very helpful and I now am recommending it to anyone facing a similar problem. If you are in the foreclosure process or think you might be, read this article, as it is written by a law group that does nothing but help those going through this very stressful process. From what we gained out of their article, my brother feels like he understands the foreclosure process better now and is now ready to take the next step in saving his home. My brother and myself feel that with something as serious as your Home you Need to hire a proffesional to help you. By professional I mean an Attorney that specializes in this field. Because, you Know the mortgage companies have all the legal help they need.
