Not many words again today. I have indeed strained my eyes, and I am supposed to be resting them. Yesterday I was to abstain from all reading, watching and driving, and I did, for the most part. Only a few minutes here and there, less than 10 minutes over the course of the day. It has made a difference and I can tell when my eyes grow tired.
Instead today I shall show you flowers. Yes a few things have survived the men in boots and heavy machinery, and they dare to bloom in the midst of chaos.
I can definitely see a big improvement today. I do have to go out this morning but the excursions are short, less than 2 miles each direction. I'm not sure which is worse, driving or looking at my phone to call an uber, so I will opt to drive myself and see how my eyes hold up. Then I will know if I can drive downtown this evening for the symphony, or if I should uber or call a friend instead. I can close my eyes while I listen to the music. In the meantime I am knitting (yes, with my eyes mostly closed) and resting as needed until my eyes recover. I will be back to this blog next week.
