- Thoughts from the treadmill
I guess it's been about a week since I posted. For five of those seven days, my eyes have been closed, as they are right now. I can type blind. I have some weird cold or flu or sinus thing that has affected my vision. Isn't that weird? I'm not sneezy or runny, but I have enjoyed the return of the migraine, thanks to the vision problems. I think. It's hard to tell which came first. It's a combination of the sinus thing and the fragrance thing, as I've spent a lot of time around other people in the past week.
I appreciate the efforts of my SIL Rhonda to make her family as fragrance-free as possible when they came over last weekend. Brown Bootie the Daring Dachshund went to live with them, so I'm happy about that. I know they'll take good care of her.
After their visit I was sick with a slammin' migraine for an entire two days, but DH took care of everything and let me recover.
I felt better in time for my daughter's choir concert. I'd have gone anyway, because she had the big solo, but I was really glad to have felt well enough for it. The concert was held in a packed auditorium, and I had a little eye tightness, but I was surprised to find I handled the fragrances quite well. Abby was angelic, the star of the show, and the other two kids were good during the concert, so it was a success.
The next day (Wednesday) I woke up feeling under the weather, and unfortunately the migraine came back. I was able to hold off the full-blown migraine yesterday by lying around with my eyes closed all. day. long. ugh. Today I woke up with energy, but still can't see. Keep your fingers crossed for tomorrow. I'm really bored and need to do some housework.
Peace out.
Hang in there. We're praying for you.
ReplyDeleteOH, darn -- you can't see this message. Well, it's still true anyway. Get better soon.
Sherri- for when your eyesight gets better!-
ReplyDeleteThe worst of a chronic condition is the stage when you're bored. Not so sick that you cant' even think about being bored, but not well enough to get back to real life. I know about that and I feel for you!
I'm so sorry about your migraine hon. I know how awful those can be. *hugs* Feel better soon.
