So if you would Just imagine us sitting indian style on your bed with a bowl of ice cream and whiny faces I will tell you about it then we can both move on with our lives. I have had an eye infection (of some sorts) in both eyes for three weeks now and there's not sign of them getting better.
I’ve been to two different doctors who have both told me that “it aint no thang” and that its nothing contagious (something about over active glads?) and that the condition will clear up within a few days with a simple prescription. Well… lucky me and my strangely aging body, I’ve had severe allergic reactions to every med they’ve offered me. ARG! Each medicine has made my eyes swell up HUGE – I mean mucho grando! Remember that crazy eyed gerbil from the movie Bedtime Stories? Yes. Huge swollen marshmallows on my face. Ugh. They have gotten so irritated that I had to stop wearing eye makeup and that BITES.
Secretly I've always thought that life would be so much easier if we didn't have to deal with putting on makeup every morning, checking on it in every passing reflection, and touching it up a few times a day, just to take it all off at night. And for the first day or so it was nice to just put on foundation and bum around the house (a weekend) But now after two weeks of having to live normal life with out it my little shoulder diva (aka pride) is taking a hit! It’s been so frustrating to walk into the restroom at work and not recognize myself or be super embarrassed when I run into people. (Its kind of strange how attached we are to wearing makeup.) Now maybe you think I'm being wussy - so it stings a little to wear it - big deal. No, it doesn't sting a little - it burns like death! Sunday Matthew and I were speaking in our new ward so I broke down and masked up. That night and the full next day I TOTALLY regretted it. PAIN! Lets just say I cried - mucho. Grr.
Oh well. We all get sick once and a while right? Right. and we just buck up and deal, right? RIGHT! And so we will! (er, I will!) Thanks ladies for letting me whine a lil’ bit. : )
You are darling Tiffany. I loved this little rant! I do hope your poor eyes feel better very soon and so you can don your sexy eye make-up. ;)
Hey! We haven't chatted in ages and ages.. but I still stalk you blog. I have some advice for you! Don't laugh.. it's weird, but it totally worked for me. I had the same thing happen to me twice now. And it is yucky and painful and down right terrible :( So I understand!! I put hot tea bags on my eyes. It had to be black tea apparently. So anyhoo, try that... let them soak on your eyes until they're cold. And seriously, in like a day the infection was gone. I was told it draws out the infection.. and I don't understand it, but it worked! haha I hope you feel better and I hope you and your hubby are doing well. We NEED to see eachother eventually. Dinner in Logan! Yes?! Yes!
Oh Tiffany! Its ok to do this once in awhile! I bet you still look beautiful but I bet its just not so fun. I do feel your pain a little bit but I brought mine on myself. Earlier last year when I had eye surgery I couldn't wear makeup for a month...and one of my eyes was blood red. I was so sick of people saying oh my gosh...your eye is red! DUH.... I feel your pain. Call anytime you want to complain...i love to hear that even Tiffany does it! Your amazing. Love you.
Fitness, I miss you so much! I wish that we were sitting on my bed, or your bed, or SOMEONE'S bed, eating ice cream and chatting. It has been way too long. I love you dear, and hope your eyes get better soon. I'll pray for you! :)
oh! I'm so so sorry you're having to deal with that. I've been wanting to ask you, but found myself in too big of a rush to ask. Sorry.
Well, I still think you're beautiful without makeup and such a sweet girl. I'm glad I know u, with or without makeup, but I know how it feels to wear it. There's been days where I don't want to wear it, but soon realize that I too have had those moments where I walk in the bathroom & don't recognize myself; & then I remember, dang, should have worn my make up today. So, hang in there, I hope ur eyes get better sexy lady. :0)
well if it ever happens again try colidal silver! And when are we getting together???
