Last night I had a terrible time falling asleep after taking my new medication for insomnia. I felt really nauseated and couldn't eat a thing. It progressed to a headache and then on to the dreaded "M" word, a big fat migraine. It was one of the worst (e.g. Philly style-see bottom post). It was horrible! I couldn't sleep all night and woke with a throbbing head. I took a shower, but that didn't help. I took 2 Relpaxs and finally 4 hours later, I was almost sane. I asked my doctor once if migraines could cause brain damage, he laughed and assured me that it wouldn't.
I really hate getting sick on the weekends! I missed a dinner and movie night with Manny (my grandfather) and Keem. I want my day back, it feels likes such a waste.
I started feeling a bit better around 5pm. So we got the great idea to watch the rain.
IT WAS FLOODED! The water filled all the roads and drivers were driving like they never drove in rain! It was crazy. We stopped for ice cream and decided to go home to get the camera and camcorder. We taped most of the flooding, it was beautiful. I'm not complaining because 1) I love the rain and 2) Our area really needs it!
When we came back I was feeling a lot better and decided to make a strawberry-blueberry pie. The pie didn't look anything like the picture though. Deception from "cooking" books. I hate pretentious cookbooks that make me feel inadequate!
The picture above is my cat Piddles. He was being really bad and scratching feet, so I decided to punish him and made him wear a lobster hat. He wasn't happy, but survived.
Happy Sunday. I hope I sleep better tonight!
