I have another headache that is wanting to go to migraine status...I have ignored its requests to do so...
I think with the cold weather, the fact that I have been lazy and have not fixed dinner but have eaten out, messed with my pill pack trying to see if my headaches were caused by the hormone drop, and just generally not take care of myself something has changed. All I can say is that they are worse now so I am not convinced that the pill pack thing is it. I just can't put my finger on the trigger yet. And having the girls choir trip tomorrow and Monkey's Grinch themed Christmas party next week I am about max on the brain stress right now. So all this "thinking" makes my head hurt worse, add to that I don't feel like cooking and I do not have a good go to meal yet, and tonight hubby calls home to say running very late, microwave died a week ago (which makes reheating extremely challenging!), and this planned choir trip to the state capital and it might be freezing rain in the am....hmm did I miss anything? Gosh I hope not!
I read an article on the Facebook page "Eat Locally Grown" about headaches and I really need to watch what I ingest. I think I am very sensitive, along with Monkey, about what goes in my body and how it reacts to it. Monkey had her kool-aid lip again yesterday. Did not drink milk but may have had more cheese than normal but still not quite sure what caused it. And she has been very emotional to boot with sudden meltdowns. For her that is a huge red flag that a food is bothering her. For me I think it is short temper and may now be my headaches too as results. Just not connected all of the dots yet.
Anybody else just get a mental block about dinner? I hate cooking the same thing and I have several things in the freezer so I would have options but none of them sound good! And the darn microwave situation isn't helping either. And thanks to our wonderful weather last week, the shipment was delayed for at least 2 more days which could mean Monday! I need to invest in another double boiler I think...
So this party...I mean wow. I think it will be fun but I just do not have the capacity or the mental fortitude to wrap my head around it right now and honestly I am not sure I could ever! I am not the crafty type...unless you mean in figuring out ways to get out of something....then I am crafty all day! I had to coordinate all the party volunteers and the list of things the teacher wanted, which was long! And I still got it wrong! I am a good delegater but I am not a good organizer. And for sure the headache is not helping things.
I feel like I am speaking in slow motion today and on top of that some unknown language that people do not understand. I have got to get this dumb pain to go away. I heard peppermint oil was good but who has that lying around? So I have been munching on our large bowl of old peppermint sticks! And I really do not like peppermint things!
That is a nice mental image eh? Me wandering around with a peppermint stick dangling out of my mouth like a cigarette, slurring my words and staggering as if in a hangover from the med combos I have taken trying to rid myself of this beast! Maybe I will go stagger into bed now.....and hope not to choke on a peppermint!
