Mel Offline

I have an infection in my right eye.  I can't focus in that eye and am on antibiotics.

Therefore I will be offline as much as I can without going stircrazy. 

Hopefully it will be resolved by the weekend ....

Hilary Syddall said...

Trish Froggatt said...

Boy - you weren't kidding about the blue on black BoINK!! Take care of yourself! Cheers

Shawn Medrano said...

Sorry to hear this Mel!! Hope it heals up quickly so you can get back online and stitching with ease!!

Mariann Mäder said...

Darn eyelashes get stuck sometimes and really hurt! Sorry to hear you've even got an infection from it, that's just yuck! I hope you're getting better quickly, Mel!

Julie Balla said...

Sorry to hear that, and hope it improves really soon. We will miss you.

Sorry to hear about your eye Mel! Eye infections are the worst. Hope it heals quickly for you!!!

Karen R said...

Hope all goes well and quickly!!!

Sisu Lull said...

Well, if you are reading this (with one eye closed), I hope you get well soon. It usually only takes a couple days for an eye infection to clear, so good thoughts heading your way on this being a short term thing.

Sorry to hear that Mel. So, you couldn't see yourself on the computer much this week? Take care. We'll keep an eye out for your return.

Karen R said...

Ahhh, Tracy - you kill me!

Rosanne Derrett said...

This is what happens when you hog all the cabana boys!

kay jones said...

Healing vibes coming over .................

Anita B said...

Mel, hope it heals up much faster than anticipated.

Rachel Cox said...

Get better my friend!

Melissa Hicks said...

Oh God I should have SEEN that one coming - thank you Tracy !!

Melissa Hicks said...

Both eyes are somewhat blurry today and I have a huge headache so I'm staying home for the day.

Natalie Mikesell said...

Hope you feel better soon! Rest that eye.

Michele Anderson said...

((((Hugs)))) I wouldn't want to do that long commute feeling bad either! It is hard enough to make yourself do it when your healthy!! Feel better soon!

Twana Bentley said...

You poor thing! Hope that medicine kicks in real fast.

Melissa Hicks said...

Eyes are still very sore today - but eyesight is better - I can actually see now :) So I am at work ...

Claire EJ said...

Try and take it easy love...I know that isn't easy at work, but...do try..

Melissa Hicks said...

I will be trying ...but you know what work is like :) :)

Twana Bentley said...

Hopefully you can rest them on the train ride home. Just prop a sign in your lap that says wake me up at 'such and such' stop.

Nancy Murdock said...

I'm a little late reading (darn lab puppy is keeping me busy!!) but I do hope that you're well on the way to recover with your eye!

Melissa Hicks said...

I'm off work today - my Director told me to stay home. I'm having a lazy day checking necessary emails and then just resting and not looking at anything for the entire day ....

Twana Bentley said...

Kudos to your Director.

Melissa Hicks said...

Not kudos to my ISP !!!! I have my main email account that you all know and I have a secondary email account that contains my real name and I use for "official" stuff like job applications.

My ISP has lost all access to these child accounts on Wednesday night and don't know when access will be restored .....

And I have information there that I need to submit a job application today .....

Mariann Mäder said...

Oh that's nasty! I hope this has been resolved in the meantime, love!

And I hope resting up has helped, too!

Natalie Mikesell said...

That is nice! enjoy your day off :)

Melissa Hicks said...

I did. Apart from submitting a job application the rest of the day was resting and relaxing - even my digestive system which decided it was going to create more havoc for me. Diarrhoea and vomiting anyone? I'd love to pass that one along .....

My eyes are better tonight - still very gritty and very sore but the blurriness is mostly gone - I think the air conditioning at work may have been exacerbating the issue.

Now two more days of non air-conditioning and antibiotics and I should be right as rain for work Monday. As long as my digestive system goes back to normal .... oooooh I feel crook .....

Twana Bentley said...

You poor baby! Do you think that's a side effect from the antibiotics? {hug}

Anita B said...

Please don't send it here - both Jim and I are just getting over a week of that one, and we sure don't want it back!! Mel, I hope you get to feeling better quickly - sending lots of hugs!

Melissa Hicks said...

Yup - given my eating habits and the timing I suspect that yes its a side effect from the antibiotics ....
