I haven't been reading (or posting) his past week because Friday afternoon, after waking up with a red and swollen eye, I was diagnosed with conjunctivitis and sent of with a prescription for precautionary antibiotic drops. <u euesight was not quite right for days, so I wasn't spending much time online at all. But Wednesday evening Himself told me it looked like it was starting to get better, aand I started feelig like it within the past day or so. No clue what caused it, and I haven't been around anyone with it, so...*shrug* I hate contributing to the overuse of antibiotics by using them "just in case", but I can't afford to risk a potential hospital visit if something even worse happens because I didn't use them.I do know of people who've gotten secondary bacterial infections while undergoing cancer treatmen that actually died because of the infection and not the cancer. +++ I've been trying to work on a knitting project since my eyes aren't as bothered while looking at that as they are by my monitor, and I just gotta say the red yrn I'm using is being a real PITA. It's not a "specialty" yarn, or an uneven spin, but I have had to rip it out almost completely, cut a length that's gotten knotted off,and restart from cating on TWICE now.Most unpleasant. +++ And now it's time to try an "experiment" in the kitchen. I bought a package of broccoli slaw, and I wanna see what happens when I throw it in a skillet and fry it like one does with rice. (And yeah, I'll add some rice to the mix as well as the egg used to stir fry it.) I gotta find some healthier options than the frozen meals Himself tends to default to... ETA: He approved. Personally, I found it edible, but it needs improvement the next time.
