Did a couple tonight. I need some better eye adhesive. Darn super glue gets everywhere. Stuck my fingers together. Went screaming round the house like a little baby. Not really, but I was ticked off for a second or two. The super glue made the eyes cloudy.

Use the get superglue and it will not leave the cloudy residue.......unless you get it on the wrong side of the eye.

Use a bodkin to place the eyes. It saved my cloudy eyes!!

I then will sometimes coat the outside with Sally Hansen after it's dried. It will help clear up the cloudy eyes....sometimes.


You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown

Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.

No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.
