Yesterday I didn’t even think about bringing goggles for our off-road adventure. I had sunglasses and we were in a four-seater with a windshield.
I made it thru most of the day ok. The dirt was flying all around us. My right eye was irritated, but not so bad. My left eye, the one closest to the open trail got pretty bad by the end of the day. I wiped the dirt/mud out of my eye so much that I rubbed my skin raw at the corner of my eye. We stopped and got eye drops for the ride home.
Still, a person cannot just pull over on the highway to add in more eye drops! I wrote my blog last night like a pirate with one eye. I was hoping by morning that my eye would feel much better. I woke up this morning with it feeling just a tad better. Not “much” better at all.
I tried to clean it out and that made it hurt again. So I reached for some lavender oil. OH, it stung!! But I left it on there. And after the stinging subsided, my eye actually felt better. And the constant watering stopped! These were great things since I had appointments today to show houses and didn’t want to look like a pirate again!
Tonight I am thankful for lavender oil helping my eye!! Yay for Oils!!
