What about a person who wears contact lenses? After a long day, your eyes get dried out, you’re driving with the heat on. Those with contacts know that struggle. You get blood shot eyes and boom probable cause for further testing.

I’ve seen some of fire country. Stopped so I can start it from the beginning.

Beautiful! Love the pics…

I only watch a few shows and they are wide ranging. I have always enjoyed Blue Bloods. Recently, I have really enjoyed Fire Country. On Netflix and Amazon I have enjoyed watching Series shows: Heartland, and more recently The Chosen. The Chosen really shows you how it was in Bible times. It helps you to understand some of the things the Bible talks about. My hubby and I watched Landman the other night. Some of it is risque, but Billy Bob Thornton really plays a good part. I think it's one of his finer roles.

Love all the pics of her! She is the sweetest!
