Well, that was something

Yesterday I do believe I was hit by a truck. No new scratches, bruises, nothing that shows, but holy moley I was a wreck yesterday. The migraine started just after lunch, and while the Imitrex took the edge off for a while, it did nothing for the ache that was spreading through the rest of me. Vicodin for that, promptly every 3 hours. A hot shower, a quest (failed) for dark and quiet, cold cloth on my face, hot pack behind my neck, small movements and quiet sobbing.

I woke this morning good to go again, but I'm learning that lesson and I took it easy.

The Map is basted in prep for quilting, but that will wait until perhaps Thursday. I had to run out to Knits and Bolts for a new can of 505, and picked up a clearance ball of cotton yarn to try that washcloth pattern when I get a minute. IF I get a minute...

The week after next is Staff Appreciation at the school, and I'm chair of that committee. There's not that much to do, it just needs to be done. Meeting tomorrow night, we'll get it all in place and then sit back and watch everyone smile at all we'll do to thank them for all THEy do. ;o)

When my health tanks like that, it is usually because of something that happened three or four days prior. My emotions or what I ate, or a combo of the two. Took me a long time to figure that out.

Been there. Migraines suck. If I can get the meds in in time I can take the punch out of it, but sometimes it comes on while I'm asleep and by the time I wake up it has escalated into a full-on hurricane.
