I'm Missing My Cats

I've been staying at Hannah's since Wednesday, going home tomorrow. I've really missed the cats! It's so quiet here, except for Hannah's neighbour! It's really strange not hearing the cats, especially at night. I know once I get back home, I'll be complaining about the noise the cats make! For now, though, I'm missing them. I talk to the cats a lot, I ask their opinions on things, like what to make for dinner! I know I'm really talking to myself, but having an audience does help!

I don't know if you can tell from the photo, but my left eye socket is swollen and rather painful. It feels like I've been punched!



Swollen eye
I'm really not photogenic at the best of times, but with my eye swollen, I look awful. Never mind.

I think it might be from the allergic attack I had the other day. I'm not sure why, but I started to sneeze like crazy, two boxes of tissues in half a day after taking medicine. This went on for two days with very little relief. When the allergies calmed down, the area under my left eye felt sore. Yesterday morning, it was so swollen and painful I thought about finding a doctor, but I didn't have a chance. This morning I used an ice pack wrapped in a towel, which helped a lot. It's still painful but not as bad. Perhaps some swelling in my sinuses is pressing on my eye. If it isn't better by Monday, then I'll have to go to an eye doctor. I hope it gets better as I really don't want to go to the doctors!  

Back home tomorrow.  I hope I'm not greeted by a load of dirty dishes! The weather has cooled down a lot; if it's like this next week, I want to go out, visit a few places. Hannah is coming back for the holiday. She wants to visit a bookstore that is in the city, just a bus ride away! Plus I must get everyone out in the garden!
