What is it with men and bifocals?

Scenario One
Me:  Bro - you almost cut your fingers there while chopping the veggies.  Have you considered bifocals?

Big Brother:  I see just fine.  I don't need bifocals.      

One year later:  Big Bro is upset that he had to call someone to drive him to the emergency room to have his finger literally reattached.  Thank God he wrapped it in ice. 

Scenario Two
Ex Husband:  They fired me because these old women I work with didn't like my humor.

Me:  I've noticed you don't see things right in front of you these days.  Didn't your job require that? 
 
EH:  They had the nerve to take me into a room to look at footage on a camera and say "see, you didn't see that".  I told them "That's not me because I see just fine".
 
Scenario Three
Son (soon to turn 30):  I borrowed a new toothbrush from you because mine is missing.

Me:  Isn't that your toothbrush right in front of you on the sink below the mirror?

Son:  blank stare

As for STITCHING, I joined Little House Needleworks Showcase and Stitch-A-Long, a blog started by the wonderful Vonna  ~ The Twisted Stitcher.  This weekend is a WIP-IT weekend and I chose to finish LHN's "A Stitcher's Heart", a piece I began in mid-2013.  It's worked on 40 ct porcelain with crescent colour threads.  
It's my first finish for 2014 and I hope to have it sewn together tomorrow!
Happy January Everyone!

  1. Men are so silly, you'd think they would want to see better. Congrats on your LHN finish - that's one of my favorite patterns and it will be lovely when you sew it up I'm sure.
