For decades now everyone has been looking for that quick fix vision solution. Eating more carrots, contacts, LASIK, but this might be the ultimate holy grail of vision mircales.
There are a new brand of eye drops that have officially hit the market which apparently could replace your eyeglasses if you have trouble seeing close-up. Much like when you use drops of dry eye or with your contacts. The medicine takes about 15 minutes to kick in, but once it does the effect of sharper vision they say can supposedly last up to 10 hours. Crazy! The FDA approved the drops back in October and they are just starting to make their way into stores now.
Very interesting. We’re living in the future.

Is there a difference whether we give a “gift” or a “present?” That is today’s Mundane Mystery.
Th two words came from different language families. Gift comes from the old German root word for “to give.” It refers to the act of giving but also to the thing being given. The term “present” was from the French which originally meant “to present.” A present is the thing being presented to someone.
But in the end both words essentially mean the exact same thing so you can say gift or present.
Happy holidays!

We are getting into that time of year when the lakes and ponds freeze over for the winter. Always fun to skate, play, and slide on them. As long as you take precaution and be VERY careful for your safety.
Luckily for this poor dog in Spain recently there were two cops nearby when he feel into the broken ice. They both dove into the freezing-cold lake to save the dog. Someone nearby got it all on video too! Incredible. Glad the pup is home safe.
