Project 365 2015: Week 7

Last week, I mainly moaned about being cold. This week, things have improved slightly weather-wise, at least. In myself, I’ve felt tired, stressed and unhappy, which I’m blaming on the nasty eye infection I’ve had for the last six weeks.

Here’s our week in pictures.

Day 39 – Sunday 8th February – after the usual cold, cloudy morning at rugby, something amazing happened – the sun came out! This sky is most definitely blue.

Day 40 – Monday 9th February – this is my view most of the time. I sit at my desk in the spare room and look at the magnolia tree outside the window. Again, it was nice to see a bit of sunlight and blue sky for a change.

Day 41 – Tuesday 10th February – my mum knitted this jumper for my daughter’s beloved Teddy.

Day 42 – Wednesday 11th February – weirdo that I am, I quite like an ugly selfie. But, even for me, it took a lot of bravery to include this one. I have a nasty eye infection in both eyes (this photo doesn’t do it justice at all) and my acne has got out of control.

Day 43 – Thursday 12th February – emergency hospital appointment for my eye infection. It has a name now – blepharitis – and a course of treatment, which is going to take a long time.

Day 44 – Friday 13th February – the kids have been doing circus skills at school all this week and today I went to school to see them perform. That’s my girl on the tightrope!

Day 45 – Saturday 14th February – we do celebrate Valentine’s Day, but we don’t go over the top. This is my card to my husband – I don’t like either slushy cards or funny/ rude cards, so that leaves me with very little choice!

  1. Really sorry to hear about your eye, sounds nasty. Looks like the treatment is a pain too but hopefully you’ll see an improvement soon. Love the teddy jumper too! Take care xx

    1. Thanks very much! I’m surprised how much the damn eye infection has taken out of me – I’m not sure if it’s physical or psychological, but I’m feeling quite drained by it. The endless doctor’s appointments for it don’t help! I love the Teddy jumper too! 🙂 x

  2. So sorry to hear about your eyes, I do hope you get some relief soon. It does help escaping outside and breathing in some lovely fresh air. Great view from your window too 🙂

    1. Thanks very much. I think it’s going to quite a while until the eyes get better, but at least I know what’s wrong with them now! I do like looking at my tree out of the window 🙂

  3. ooh your eyes sound sore, and your face is rather a mess……hope it clears up soon. at least it is not contagious so you know you wont pass it on.
    it has been nice to see the blue skies, summer is coming makes for easier photographs for the project.

    1. Thanks very much! Apparently the eyes will take a while to clear up, but at least I know what’s wrong with them and how to get them better! I can’t wait for summer! 🙂

    1. Thanks very much. The eyes have been surprisingly draining. I’ve felt quite down this week and I’m sure it’s down to the eyes 🙁 It’s so nice to see blue sky!

    1. Thanks very much! My fingers are crossed for the eyes and skin getting better. The magnolia tree looks beautiful when it’s in full bloom. No doubt I’ll have pics to share of that in a couple of months!

  4. It must be lovely to watch the magnolia tree change through the seasons, especially with some sunshine – hooray for that last Sunday! Hope you’re feeling better soon x

  5. aargh, blepharitis – I’m prone to that. Annoying, but I manage to keep it at bay these days by having occasional breaks from my contact lenses and by using eyelid cleansing wipes every day. Hope you feel better soon!

  6. sorry to hear you’re not well and hope the medication starts working on your eyes. Have you stopped the acne meds too or do you think it’s because you’re just run done. Hope a nice relaxing half term helps xxx

    1. Thanks very much! Have had to take a break from the acne medication to let it all calm down. Fingers crossed for a relaxing half term! x

    1. Thanks very much, it is rather painful, but hopefully this latest course of treatment will help to sort it out!

  7. So sorry about your eye infection – that must be pretty rotten. I hope the medicine helps! Loving the blue skies too, it makes such a difference to your mood, doesn’t it?

  8. oh honey i am so sorry your suffering with blepharitis, having specialised in ophthalmology i know that its not a nice condition. I hope you get some relief from the ointment soon xx

  9. Oh you poor thing, I hate the germs and nasties around at this time of year. I hope that your acne isn’t too painful, I’ve got some along my jaw and chin which are so painful.

    Thanks for linking up to Project 365.

    1. Thanks very much! Acne can be so painful, although this is mainly sore and dry, due to the effects of the roaccutane.

    1. Thanks very much! Totally agree with you about blue skies 🙂 Think it will be a while until the eyes are sorted, but at least I’ve got the right solution at last!

    1. Thanks very much! Going to be a while until the eyes are properly better, I think, but it’s a step in the right direction!
