My new glasses...

Evening all,

So I'm going to start off todays post with the obvious topic... I picked up my new glasses on Friday! If you're friends with me on social media then I'm sure you're already sick of me talking about this, but I don't think I'll every be able to say quite enough to justify my feelings about the whole thing. I what I can put into words I have already on my social media account, which by the magic of copy and paste you fine people can also read right here...

"So today marks the end of a pretty big and scary part of my life... I picked up my new glasses and had a bit of a 'first time seeing clearly' emotional moment. I'm pleased to say that 99% of the distortion in my left eye is now not visible to me and I can see further and clearer that I have been able to see since my problems started over a year ago. I also now have a pair of prescription sunglasses so I don't have to wear sunglasses over my glasses when I'm driving! This is pretty huge for me and to be at the end of the journey is such a big weight off my shoulders.

I want to say a big thank you to the Eye Clinic at Salisbury Hospital, particularly Dr. Arora for taking such good care of me and pushing to get my treatments approved. I want to say thank you to my friends, manager and directors at my job for allowing me all the time I needed to go through my treatments and supporting me in every possible way. And of course I want to say thank you to my friends and family, particularly my mum for driving me to and from hospital for all my appointments. I couldn't have do it without the help of all of you amazing people and I am so grateful"

I don't think I could said what I needed to say any better than I already have and it still doesn't even touch the surface of my true feelings on the matter. I've had my new glasses for a day and a half at this point and I haven't been able to stop smiling and trying to see how far in the distance I can read things. It all sounds like one of those typical emotional Facebook videos, but legit is all real haha.

As far as the rest of the week goes, it has been nothing but manic. For one reason or another I haven't managed to make it home straight from work on any day this week. It's either been gym or out for meals or attending work charity events and today I had to do to the gym for my plan review which was fine but like, I could have just done with staying in bed! I am absolutely knackered and have spent the remainder of my day in locked away mode with Cody. I have managed to get a few productive things done this week though... I played 'Another World', I watched all of 'Final Space' and also watched 'Triangle' so that's a game, tv show and film ticked off for the week I even watched the first episode of 'Luke Cage' Season 2!. I also read through my unit 2 course book for my CSI course and started on the essay for it. SO yeah all in all, pretty manic and honestly all this stuff had not even been half of it, but that's a story for another day.

That's all I have for now I think... tomorrow I plan to do nothing but game and Netflix unless I find someone to go see Predator with but that is it!

Time for some chill time now before sleep... have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

Until next time
