For the last week I have been suffering an eye infection - this is slightly different from the conjuctervitis that Al and Jean had over Christmas. I got something in my eye and it started weeping and producing very pale gunk under the lid and feeling all scratchy. Only in the left eye. I then put in some eye ointment and my eye lids and the bit over bone between the eyebrow and lid puffed right up. The eye itself went very bloodshot.
I was allergic to the ointment - sigh.
Anyway it has only stopped weeping today though is still producing some gunk. I unseccesfully tried to take photos of my own eye - they didn't work but here they are anyway!
After three days with the swelling getting worse I really did start to look like I'd been in a fight - still do!
The pics were taken before I had the reaction to the ointment!
Due to computer sillyness I have been unable to load pictures effectively - hence the reduction in the number of blog posts I've made recently!
Anyway a few weeks ago we finially managed our 'Christmas' trip to see Als Cousins.
There is alot of cuteness in the following pictures - you have been warned!
Jean and Annabelle had a great time - this was just before Jean had started to walk. Her and Annabelle were having some great races though and there was a lot of giggling a foot!
we were however late due to having to wake poor Barabra up to find the Door Clamp that Als Uncle needed - but still it provided some amusement - to me at least!
As always Alaric fell asleep - at least it wasn't at a funeral this time!
Sorry an arty one again! I just could not resist photographing this white rose when I saw it.
To Jeans joy she found a cat that doesn't run away, even when over hugged! His names Tigger.
Alaric became deluged by small children - he looked in his element 🙂
We also went to the park which had a cool helicopter in it - toy one obviously. unfortunatly I left my camera behind 🙁
It was a nice day out and Jean was happy to be left playing with the other children.
Jean loves my furry white gloves - she keeps stealing them!
The Only trouble is she looks like a fluffy lobster with them on!
I am an idiot - I washed the cats flea collors!
doh doh doh.
And Minni's been having her treatments becuase she doesn't have a collar!
'Alaric when did the cats last have their flea treatment?'
'Erm, can't remember why?'
'Becuase I am covered in flea bits! Havent found any on Jean. Didnt you mark it in the calender?'
'Oh dear, no why should I have?'
'Yes its supposed to be done every three months isnt it?'
'Oh no we only ever did it when they got fleas...' I will not type what I said yet as it would be lots of stars! Approximatly it was along the lines of...
'Nonononon... we have a baby we dont let the cats get fleas in the first place! Same with the worming tablets.'
....
'You haven't given them their worming treatment either have you?'
'But they dont have worms...'
Ok so I had three flea bits but still - I'm afriad poor Al got moaned at quiet alot as he'd said he would do the cats meds as he's brought cats up before.
Good job I'm already in the middle of spring cleaning!
