In need of an opinion...

ravenlas had laser eye surgery on Friday. He went to the Vision Optical (sorry!) Express clinic in Leeds and they were very good. Only... they popped in the anaesthetic drops one eye straight after the other. By the time the drop went into the other eye, it was already watering. So when they came to cut the flap, his left eye wasn't properly anaesthetised. He worried everyone in the waiting room - including myself - by saying *extremely loudly* that he was in a lot of pain. The procedure seems to have gone okay, though, and after a traumatic trip home in which the sun caused even more pain through his darkest sunglasses and closed eyes, he's doing fine. His vision's good, his eyes are healing up just fine. It's been a touch stressful, though, and predictably, I've been very tired today.

So, knitting. I've got a lot done Friday and yesterday. I bought some Debbie Bliss Donegal Tweed which I thought might make a better sleeve, so now I have a sleeve done in that and one done in Debbie Bliss Rialto Aran.

- Which do you think? Either? Neither? I'm not convinced. So not convinced that I spent today starting to knit a shopping bag instead.

Been a bit headachey to go with the tired, but I also spent a good while soaking in the bath, and this evening we used up the huge pile of veg in a chicken stew and garlic potatoes. Yum! And Transformers is on the tv.

Thank you, o_faolain, for the CD - I'll be putting it onto my ipod tomorrow. :)

Work tomorrow. *sigh*

Thank you - I think I'm going to pull it back and knit it in something else entirely. Which means I'll have a pile of purple yarn with which to knit something else. Smaller. :) Maybe I'll remake this in a kids size for one of my neices...

Thanks - having seen it done (although, yanno, not the actual procedure), I'm thinking it's not for me. I'm glad my prescription's tiny!
