My eye was worse yesterday so I went to the ER. That doctor took a better look and said there was a scratch. He gave me a different prescription and he also gave me a card for an eye doctor he said he wants me to call.
It's still hard for me to look at a computer screen for very long so I'm not reading blogs and only answering a couple emails.
Be back when I can.
Just to let everyone know, Friday I went to urgent care to have my eye checked. First I tried my doctors office back and was told "I'm so sorry but no one is in the office today." Then I tried the place where I get my eye exams for glasses. I was told the same thing, the doctor was out of the office until Tuesday. Both women that I talked to said they thought I probably had scratched my eye and should go to the emergency room.
I opted for urgent care since it was the closest. I was in and out very quickly and only was away from work for an hour and fifteen minutes. The doctor there looked at my eye. I told him I had taken an allergy pill in the morning and it had helped with the watering. His conclusion was that it was allergy related. He then told me I could either continue with the allergy pill and using the anti-itch eye drops or he could write me a prescription for antibiotic eye drops. His words were "It's up to you, I don't care either way, I'm indifferent." He didn't say it in a mean way but was a strange thing to say. I opted to have him write me the prescription.
I'm writing this on Saturday and at this time I'm not 100% but it does feel a whole lot better. I chose to not read blogs again just to take some extra time away from the screen. Not to mention I don't have anything to blog about any way. I'm probably end up with a huge reading list. I may or may not get to them all.
I really have nothing to post about. Other than my typical week of work and home again there is nothing special to talk about. I've used it all up. I haven't had any ambition to work on any craft projects at all. I've been spending all my off time practicing my slug imitation. I'm really quite good at it.
I could talk about my work frustrations but that will just make my blood boil. Who knew there were so many frustrating people in the world.
I know, I'll tell you about the phone call I took at work. A woman calls and tells me that the bakery they were getting their bread from won't deliver to them anymore and wanted to know who we had to deliver. I thought she was asking if we delivered and I told her me did not. (Now put on your best snotty voice when you read this next line) I'm talking about who are your vendors that deliver, since your close to me they maybe could deliver here also. I tell her one of them is Schwebels. (You didn't put that snotty voice away did you? You'll need it for her lines) I just told you, Schewebels doesn't deliver here any more. I then told her that I didn't know the name of the other company that delivered. She says " The bread aisle is like 5 steps away, can't you walk over there and see what kind of bread is on the shelf?" So by this time I'm getting really annoyed. My voice might be a bit snippy and I tell her, the types of bread we have over there aren't going to tell me the name of the company that delivers it. She finished off the conversation with an extremely snippy "You know what, just forget it. Thank you for your time, you've been most helpful"
I have to say, that lady was a real butt head.
Friday I had lofty ambitions for my day off. I even got a head start on some of the cleaning. Saturday morning I woke with the intentions of following through with my plans. I drank my cup of coffee and read blogs. I got dressed much earlier than I usually do on a day off. I threw in the laundry and got it started. It was a beautiful morning so I went out back with my camera and took some pictures. That is where the ambition ended.
Oh well there's always tomorrow.
If you're up for some Sunday funnies, yesterday, I posted something on Facebook that I find humorous. If you follow me there you may have already seen it but for those who don't, here it is.
So yesterday at work I managed to fall on my butt coming out of the walk in freezer. I jokingly said to the girl I was working with, "I need to be careful. At my age I could break a hip." Without any hesitation she replied "Don't worry, bumbles bounce."
If you aren't familiar with a bumble, he's from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Yukon Cornelius exclaimed "Bumbles bounce" near the end of the movie.
Before you ask, I didn't get hurt when I fell. I was just happy that no one saw me do it.
Just some random pictures I took while wandering around in my yard.
Some of you may be wondering how the wedding went. It was nice, I made it through. I didn't have to change my shoes before I got home so that was a good thing.
Me and my son before the wedding.
Unfortunately I didn't get any group pictures because when we went out with the photographer I left my camera. Maybe once those come out I might be able to get some to share. I of course have a whole bunch more but I think this is enough for one post.
So glad you stopped by today. I've got pictures of my front yard looking much better and cleaner than it did before.
The pictures I showed yesterday, that work was done on April 26th. The job wasn't completed until May 10th because he had to wait to get the mulch and stone. Stone is for by my back door which had turned into a big mud puddle courtesy of Mr. Gibbs.
So lets take a look at what he did.
He built up around the tree and mulched around it.
To the left of the door the bush was taken out and now instead of one hydrangea, I have two. I need to take that bird feeder out of there and put it away.
To the right of the door, he took what was planted in there already and moved things to be more spaced out. He also moved the big rocks that I had sitting in there and evenly spaced those.
He finished off by taking all the various yard art items I had and arranging those throughout the three areas. There was more than just this one butterfly but I added this because there isn't quite enough pictures in this post yet. (sorry about the overload)
Well there you have it.
I took all the pictures of my Pioneer Woman stuff quite a while ago. When I started this series I didn't go in order of how I took the pictures so now I'm not sure what I've shown and what I haven't. If this is a repeat I apologize.
I had purchased a utensil holder that I thought I liked. The three glass containers are on a wood turntable. This no longer has any utensils in it because I replaced it with a smaller one that takes up less room on the counter. Now this one sits on my hutch because, while it didn't work well for me on the counter, I still like it and can't get rid of it.
I would like to wish all the moms out there a very happy Mother's Day. I hope you enjoy your day no matter what you decide to do.
Being that it's Sunday I have to work but I have nothing planned any way.
