Anatomy of a Migraine
It started Saturday, with rampant binge-eating/food cravings. Should have known something was up; that’s been a precursor to an evil migraine before. I did manage to get most of what I wanted to do done on Saturday, but by late afternoon, I was feeling rather seedy. Woke up Sunday with the “uh-oh, I have a […]
Unobservant People
My foot surgeon has allowed me to go into tennis shoes, and that meant that I had to buy a pair of shoes that I would feel comfortable wearing to the office for the next month. Our office has a “no sneakers” policy, so I wanted my tennis shoes to be discreet and non-obvious. I […]
Back on My Feet
I had my second follow-up visit with my foot surgeon this morning, and, much to my relief, he told me that I could take off “the boot” and start wearing tennis shoes. HOORAY! The boot does a great job of protecting the foot, but it makes you walk funny because the sole does NOT bend. […]
Returning to Life
Well, this has been an odd few days. I went in for surgery on Friday morning, and went home that afternoon. I was put to bed, and I didn’t really wake up again until Sunday afternoon. I was only sort of awake on Sunday and Monday, and I used up the last of the painkillers […]
What Do You Say?
I don’t really know what to write. Tomorrow is the foot surgery. Nervous … yeah. I don’t like general anaesthesia. I don’t like not knowing what’s going on around me, and I don’t like being out of control. Ugh. Relieved … yeah. The pain has been pretty bad the last few days, so it’s nice […]
Laryngitis!
Okay, I am now officially furious about this lingering illness. I have had laryngitis for over a week, and it sucks! I am a talker. I love to talk. I have to talk to do my job. And I can’t think of anything more wonderful than conversations with family and friends. So this whole week […]
Maybe I Have Bronchitis Again … and a Lawsuit Update
My chest hurts and my throat feels tight and dry when I take a breath. I’ll bet it’s bronchitis again. I’m sick to death of this blankety-blank cold! So, I haven’t heard from the accident lawyer since December, so I called last Monday for an update, since several e-mails went unanswered. I asked for my […]
Lacking Motivation
I have so many projects to complete this weekend, and here I am, browsing around on Blogit to pass the time. I just can’t get motivated about any of these projects. One of them is even an editing job that’s going to bring in some much-needed cash, but I am just completely uninterested in it. […]
Still Sick
I’m still under the weather. It’s getting better, but I still have a bad earache and full sinuses and a bad cough. Sigh. We made some progress on getting moved back home this past weekend. Got the new security door ordered, got the bedrooms completely ready — except I need to go and get our […]
