After Rose left this morning at 6:30 AM, I stayed in bed and slept fitfully. I misread the symptoms and took Tylenol, when I should have reached for my prescription migraine medicine. By the time I realized I was in the throes of a migraine, it was too late to treat it. I just had to wince, vomit and try to sleep it off -- staying in bed until 10:30.
I got home before 1:00 PM, but I really haven't accomplished anything today. The damn headache really drained me.
I thought these suckers were a thing of the past. Unfortunately, I was wrong.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
So sorry. I used to get them, too, but seem to have grown out of them (or should I say aged out of them). I remember how awful they are though. So sorry!!
ReplyDeleteOuch! How long do they linger after?
