I’ve noticed that I’ve been getting headaches much more frequently lately. I began to worry that was developing a brain tumor, so I called Dr. Clint, who ruled out the possibility of the tumor and told me that I probably am having tension headaches due to my sunglasses pinching my head right above my ears.

I like the trend of sunglasses with large frames, because I feel like it should be easier to find glasses that don’t look or fit too small on my large head. Unfortunately, it’s not working out this way. I’ve bought two different pairs of glasses, both of which ended up pinching. (To be more honest, I didn’t buy the second pair. Leslie gave them to me, even though they were actually Mom’s.)  So now I have to look for a new pair.
