XII.III.MMXVI: Swollen Eye!

I woke up with a swollen left eye! I must have rubbed my eye. I applied heat, used eye drops, washed my eyes with baby shampoo and normally my home remedies would cure my swollen eye by now but it hasn't. 
I am hoping tomorrow the swelling will go down!
Besides my eye annoyance, I had a pretty productive Saturday. I cleaned the house (re-organized, vacuumed) and then my boyfriend and I got a lot of errands completed.
Overview of what we did today:
• Sears - I picked up some online orders. I bought a 3 piece outfit set for my niece (pea coat, onesie, pants), firefighter shirt for my nephew, construction truck toy set for my nephew, garden leather gloves for my dad, and a heart sterling silver toe ring for myself. I still have a few more orders that hasn't arrived to the store for pick up.
• DSW - I picked up online orders - Aldo flip flops for my boyfriend and Lucky Brand socks for me!
• Whole Foods - We went grocery shopping! And in honor of National Cookie Weekend (it's tomorrow December 4th), Whole Foods had freshly baked cookies for only a quarter, so we bought 3! They're normally $1.25 each, so that was a steal!
• Target - Stocked up on essentials (water, oral hygiene - mouthwash, dental floss, toothpaste)
Overall: I had a much better day than yesterday that's for sure! 
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

The reason for your swollen could me a number of things...try not to mess with it and if doesn't improve you might want to see a doc.
My list of accomplishments for Sat:

@AbbyGreenhill I bought some Martha Stewart ones but I guess I need to fluff it or something. They're hypoallergenic though.

I am sorry to hear that. Perhaps using some eyedrops which can fight the allergies and remember not to touch your eyes with hands. I hope you will get well soon. I can understand how annoying it is. Especially for such a pretty young lady like you

@infatuatedbby Perhaps you can wear sunglasses in these few days when your eye gets well

Sorry about your swollen eye. I hope it is not a Stye. My son had one of those when he was young and it was painful for him.

I used to get swollen eyes when I sprayed the duster thing at my work before. But I think I got them from the new pillows I just got.

I have gotten my eyes checked for being swollen a few times, they said it must have gotten dust or something ~ eye drops should help. My home remedies (hot water on a cloth to the eye) was recommended & usually does the trick!

I have always used hot cloth and it'd work. But when I clean with baby soap - I use cool. I am going to wash my eye again, both hot and cool helps soothe it but I hope it goes down, thank you for the tip
