I am falling apart. I went to the eye doctor today and the good news is I have the eyes of a 90 year old! Yes, that is what the Optometrist said. A 90 year old. Hmmm. She gave me an Rx for super concentrated fish oils. The bad news? The glassses I have been wearing for almost three years are all wrong. How wrong? The place where I went to get my glasses put the lenses in upside down. Yes friends, the lenses are perfect but they were put in upside down. Do you think that may be the reason my eyes are always tired. Do you think that is the reason I need to sleep so much? Maybe it is because I have not been seeing properly for three years. *sigh*
The other great news is several weeks back I went to the Podiatrist because of a constant pain in my left foot and ankle. He took X-rays and nothing. He sent me for a CT-Scan and I have an unhealed chip fractures just above my ankle. It is not considered emergency surgery and I have to wait a year just to get to see the surgeon. Then, I get to wait another 2 years to have the surgery. (Oh Canada!)
I don't know how or when I fractured my ankle but I am very clumsy and I wonder if it is because of my crappy glasses?
Not much else new. My fiance has been pissed off at me for a couple of days now. I am now just staying out of his way. My daughter's new bedroom all set up. It is GREEN. I will take a picture when I find my camera. It is similar to the green grass on this blog! It actually looks pretty good. If you are ever going to let your kids choose their own paint, beware!
I am feeling sad today so I think I am going to go have a nap.
Unbelievable about the glasses. It's a kind of malpractice. And waiting so long for you ankle - that's the downside of socialized medicine. But it looks you are burning all your negative karma in one fell swoop. If that makes any sense at all to you. But even if it does, it's not a big help. Get new glasses, get some good sleep and maybe see a lawyer. Sneek up behind your honey and give him a hug and a smooch. These past months have been so hard on all of you - your skins must be kinda raw. sending you warmth and prayers.
ReplyDeleteBirdie you sweet thing. I'm so sorry to hear about the problems. I can really relate, except the part about the glasses. When you have a lined bifocal it's easy to tell up from down. Having new glasses will perhaps help you to see things in a better light. I feel for you.
ReplyDeleteOMG I can't believe they were stupid enough to do that to your glasses! Wait, yes I can...same thing happened to me on one lense a few years back, then when I told them I couldn't see out of it, they got all huffy and told me to wear them for a week so my eyes could adjust. Went back a week later and told them to fix them or I'd put them somewhere the sun didn't shine.
ReplyDeleteAnd honey, the ankle? YEARS?? That's crazy!! I'm so spoiled I guess, if I need a doc enough to actually GO, I tend to get taken care of. I'm sorry :-(
Why is lover boy mad at you? I'm sure it will pass quickly sugar, but it is very disturbing while it's going on, no?
I'm sorry you are sad. If I was there I would buy you ice cream. Ice cream helps with everything dahhhhling. Cheer up toots.
Whoa... That must have been quite a shock to find out that alll these years y have been exhausting yr eyes due to a malpractice.... It is a good thing y had them checked again.... Hope you get that surgery over and done with soon.... I remember having to wait in the emergency room for an hour and a bit just to check whether my baby was safe in her womb when I had bleeding.... I left the hospital to go see a general practictioner... Crazy!
ReplyDeleteHug your fiancé and tell him you love him... I am sure e understands how the ast few months have been hard on everyone... Lots a love and sunshine to you and yours..
I know this is inappropriate behavior but i laughed so hard at this post. The glasses....it's even better than my experience today with my Baby's one armed drive installed on the wrong side of her wheel chair. Read it and feel better about your life but be sure to turn your gasses upside down when you do.
ReplyDeletejust by to give you hugs and hope for a new day. however, where did that last pesky post go? i fear this is a heavy day for you too. hugs either way.
ReplyDeletehey, at least the surgery is emergency, right? what might it have been if it wasn't emergency surgery? ten years? after your leg fell off?
be well:)
