The struggle is real

I have been trying for a week to find cushions for my porch swing online and it seems most every place is out of stock on the ones I like. Or like Amazon they have only 1 in stock when I need 2. I check the sites each day to see if they’ve come in stock yet but no luck. However today when checking Walmart I found one I really liked and they showed they were in stock so I ordered 2. I was so happy they’d be here in a couple days and I could enjoy my swing but no…I got an email telling me they’d be shipped June 27! Hell no! I’m not waiting that long. I mean, the swing is ok, comfortable enough I guess without them but I WANT them! It’ll make it look so much nicer. So I guess I’m going to have to go physically shop around town and see if I can find some. I don’t feel like going today but maybe I’ll go tomorrow. 

I’m frustrated! My eyes have been bothering me a lot more recently. It seems they have been watering more but are feeling dry and somewhat blurry where the vision is concerned. That’s what’s weird about dry eye disease. No matter how watery they are, they are dry! That’s one of the biggest symptoms of dry eye disease. I have been using the Restasis everyday twice a day as instructed but it hasn’t helped all that much. It must be something to do with the season because Restasis is the only medicine that has ever helped. I guess I can only give it time and see what happens. I see the eye doctor again July 1st.

The weather here has been alot cooler the past couple days. The high has only been in the mid 60’s, the lows in the mid 40’s. This right after our 90° days. I can’t wait to get my cushions on the swing, for my dog leads to get here and for it to be a little nicer outside so I can sit outside with my babies. I decided I don’t care if Tito barks when he sees people and animals. Maybe getting him outside for longer periods of time besides just going out to the bathroom that he’ll get use to it and not bark so much. I guess we’ll see soon. 

Today not much is going on. I’m just going to relax with my babies and do dishes then make dinner later. Tonight I’m making Spicy Lemon Garlic Tilapia, pierogies and green beans for dinner. Too bad my son don’t be home to eat tonight. He always bugs me to cook fish. Who knows, maybe I can get ahold of him later and get him home for dinner. I won’t count on it though!

That’s about all I have for today! Take care everyone! Lots of love… Cynthia

@kaliko Not yet because I’ve only checked online.

I saw a ton of cushions at Ollie’s.  I dont know if you have them in your area.

@celestialflutter Yes we have an Ollie’s. My mom’s friend told me to check there also. I haven’t checked anywhere except online so far.

I hope you find your cushions soon!

Ooo, I haven’t had Tilapia in forever.

I hope you get your cushions soon…..I know I don’t like to wait for things either…..

and maybe your body got use to the eye drops and that is why they are not working anymore?  maybe you need a stronger prescription?

@jaythesmartone I don’t think there is a stronger prescription.

I use Systane and like it a lot.  Used another brand before that and threw it right in the trash, it didn’t work at all.

You’ll find the BEST cushions, I’m sure of it.  😀

@elcreature I need prescription strength. Nothing otc works. It’s a severe dry eye disease.
