What is this................

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

Is it an alien? W i l l .. m a y b e, but your know her as Judy!!

If you are interest in this OptiVISOR, Optical Glass Binocular Magnifer, I'm sure you will be able to find it on the internet, I got mine from our Vet. OptiVISORs are use for close up work of all kinds; cross-stictch, watch repair, drafting, etc.

Now I can check these Brugs for insects and easily identify any I might find.

Judy

PS I would apologize for looking like this, but it's me having fun!!

I think they are cool Judy. It leaves both hands free to examine the leaves. Very handy.

Gulfport, MS(Zone 8a)

Judy,
Have you ever thought about receiving professional help?
LMAO

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

I tried to make an appointment but the Appointment Clerks are now asking if you have Brugs. I truthfully answered "yes", then she asked how many. I told her 43, to which she replied, "it's our professional opinion that you can't be helped". lol lol

Zion, IL(Zone 5a)

I liiiiiike it! Might even work to help keep nuisance neighbors out of your hair.

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Cool. I think it is a great idea. Hands free bug investigations. Could become a business from the sounds of that. LOL! Nice to see you Judy. Looks like you are having fun.

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

8ft, especially if you mumble to yourself...... ROTFLOL

The next to the last item listed is IT!!! $29.95

Trust me on this, it was amazing what you can see on your plants. Just don't try to walk without tilting up the lens............

Judy

Springfield, OH(Zone 5b)

We can call her Judy Magoo

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

LOL! Good one Jazz.

Houston, TX(Zone 9b)

I have used a magnifier with my cavys trying to read the tags. With it on my head I can hold the guinea pig with one hand and the tag with the other. I got mine at Hobby Lobby a crafts store in the Counted Needlepoint area for fine work. It is kinda neat, has a hinge and you can leave your glasses on and hinge it up or down to use it. I think it comes with two different lenses and you can purchase more up to 7x. But, yes, you do look kinda silly, but on the other hand, you can see what you need to see. I have never thought to use it with the plants, thanks for the idea.

254 Mag Eye's Hands Free Magnifier

Crafts, etc is the catalog version of Hobby Lobby if you dont' have one near. Wow, look at all those magnifiers, might find something I like more.

The picture below is one of the pigs I have used the magnifiers on and you can't even see the tag. It is tiny way up on the ear, and the numbers on it are even smaller.

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

Jazz, do you have EPS or did you know I have English Bulldogs!!! lol lol

Meet Jeb!! He's a scamp!! Judy Magoo & Jeb!!!

(Notice his front paws. He had an accident which damaged his spine. When we got him he was flat on the floor pulling himself around by his front paws. My wonderful DH gave him physical therapy and taught him how to walk again!!!)

No Judy - I rant and rave and they think I've got somebody on the ground.
You just didn't have to post a shot of Jeb though! I've thought for a long time that if/when I finally get another dog it would be an E.B.. Now I'm thinking I need to start a E.B fund because it may be sooner than I thought.

Ithaca, NY(Zone 5b)

He's adorable Judy. Ooohhh that face!!! Just want to pinch his jowls!!! LOL!

Lynne

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Julie

Columbia, SC(Zone 8a)

Deltona, FL(Zone 9a)

Judy,,I just love your dog....What a great face.

Goshen, OH(Zone 6a)

Oh Judy that pic is worth a million bucks how funny, I sure hope from now on a bug can't hide from you. LOL. The EB is so adorable his face just says it all " Give me some lovin" I bet he gives big sloppy kisses.

JoAnn

Angleton, TX(Zone 9a)

LOL......Judy, now I will be able to recognize you when I see you. That is really a neat hands-free operation for checking out many things.

Heart warming news that DH could help Jeb learn to walk again.

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

One night we were in bed and heard a strange noise downstairs.... it was Jeb playing "kick the can".

JoAnn

Springfield, OH(Zone 5b)

Judy..No I didn't know you had an EB.. but he sure is a cutie!

San Jose, CA(Zone 9b)

Jeb is adorable! Bless your DH.

I love the glasses! I am toying with the idea of getting a miner's hat because I like to garden at night (out of necessity due to the need to work :-{)
Now I'm thinking if I have BOTH, there isn't anythin I couldn't do out there at night. Of course my kids will probably stop talking to me...

Houston, TX(Zone 9b)

Sometimes the kids not talking to you isn't so bad, and it is nice and quiet.

Knoxville, TN

Very becoming, Judy! I borrowed a pair of those to do bead projects. When my son walked up behind me and I looked at him, he rolled on the floor laughing! My DH put little flashlights on the glasses and it made them so much more attractive.
Cute photo! I needed that today!!!

Judy, I bought my DH a pair of those last summer. I never thought to use them myself. LOL.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

Just too cute!!

Gulfport, MS(Zone 8a)

I may have to check in to getting a pair of those, I can only hope that i look as stylish as you, lol

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

ROTFLOL The dogs even barked at me.

lagrange, GA(Zone 7a)

And the dog had good reason to bark. LOL Judy you are one of the most fun people I think I have ever met. I would recognize you any where without the glasses. With the glasses I don't know.

Gulfport, MS(Zone 8a)

Sorry, had to wallpaper this one just so i could spit my coffee all over the monitor in the morning, lol

Pocahontas, TN(Zone 7b)

Can't you just imagine me trying to walk, but being unable to see the ground, into a Round Up gathering wearing this thing and having Jeb on a lead, so people would recognize me. Judy Magoo for sure!!!

Tellico Plains, TN(Zone 7b)

HAH!

Judy , yer a hoot !

Wish my camera worked , I have a head magnifier on the same line as yours that has little AAA battery powered lights on either side.

DH LOL his hinnie off when he saw it.

Thankfully the critters didn't attack tho ..... lol

Tulsa, OK(Zone 7a)

Maybe Jeb should have a doggie pr.. hm.. cute.. you give us all a smile and a good feeling... take care..... blessings. Twyla
