Back in the Blog Business

It was not a good week.  I had cataract surgery on one eye.  When my eye was clamped open, it tore.  Inside where you can't see it but the Dr. can.  I found out a week later when my eye didn't feel good.  It's going to be ok though.  Supposedly.   I can't wear eye makeup for a month.  I've worn eye makeup since I was 14.  May as well not have any clothes on!   I lost two complete days because the anesthetic knocked me on my butt.   Then Blogger decided to cut up, ending with not allowing me to enter my blog.

After fiddling around for several hours, instead of sewing, I finally fixed Blogger.  Actually, Blogger told me it wanted me to download Google Chrome.  I gave in.  After the download, I got back into my blog and it let me make comments again. Thanks, Blogger.

Sometimes, you just have to let it have its way.

Hope your eye heals well.
And you'll be putting on make-up again before you know it. (Only saying this to make you feel better 'cause I know I wouldn't be happy too if I had to stay away from my eye-make-up a whole month..)

Oh, my, what a week! It can only get better. I sure hope all works out with your surgery. I know so many that had this done so easily. I am sorry to hear yours went awry, kinda scary.

Take care, friend.

Holy cr*p Gwen. I am SO sorry to hear what happened with your cataract surgery. Can you see ok? Are you in pain? Just rest and relax. I'm sending you lots of healing energy!
As for blogger, you are right, sometimes you have to let go and let it do what it wants.
Thank you for your comments on my blog. Please come on over for dinner! I could try my hand at making some vegetarian quesadillas. :)

Sorry to hear you had complications with your surgery. Hopefully will heal quickly. I had to quit wearing makeup 10 years ago because of an eye condition. Luckily I wasn't an everyday makeup person but still miss it when getting dressed up. A month will go by quickly. Take Care.

Mary Beth said...

Oh Gwen! What a scary thing this surgery was, I'm so sorry it happened this way for you!!!! Hope you feel better soon

As for Blogger, well, I really don't like it, never have and it doesn't like me, either.

melissa said...

Owwww! I hope you're feeling better soon. And think of it as an opportunity to stay inside in your PJs as much as possible until it heals. :)
