In my language, we can say "I had a cloudless week" in a figurative way - it doesn't mean there were no clouds in the sky that week, it suggests it was a week of unalloyed bliss. I want to say "it was not a [cloudless] year" (because bad things happened). Can you say this, is it considered good English? Or how would you phrase this? My brain has stopped working. Many thanks in advance!
