BOOM.... Again

No, not the power this time, but sadly my head. Yes my head went BOOM. Since its kinda made my day crappy, here is a happy pic of Ariel. Can you see that bottom tooth? Been trying to get a pic of it, but she is rather protective of it.

I woke up this morning ok. I had a bit of a sore head, but nothing usually food and some fresh air can't fix. I ate, and Ariel and I headed out to get the flowers we needed for the center of the cake for coffee group tomorrow. I was slowly realizing that it wasn't improving and started to head home. We stopped in the quilt shop where Stella was. While Ariel was having a great time dumping things over and crawling out the door to see the passing dogs (she is getting really fast!), I was really starting to hurt.

We left for home, and I was hoping the princess would go down for a nap so I could rest and sleep this thing off. I put Ariel in her crib and she played while I jumped in the shower. Sometimes the water helps the head. It didn't this time. I practically crawled out of the shower in pain. Everything was blurry and it hurt to open my eyes. I knew it was a migraine, as I suffer from them. Usually once every few months... but I didn't really have any during my pregnancy, so its been a long time since I have had one this bad... and it was REALLY bad.

Warning, things get a bit gross here. I tried to stand, bad idea... ended up back on the floor and was sick. Thank goodness for being in the washroom, and Ariel safe in her crib. As I sat on the floor, wrapped in a towel, the phone rang. Good thing I had brought it with me. It was Nana outside. Sometimes I am amazed at the Lords timing. Nana was able to take Ariel who was now upset and hungry for lunch.

Nana fed her and played while I sat upstairs, not getting any better. In fact I was sick several more times. I don't remember being that sick since I was pregnant (and no I am not pregnant, just in case you are wondering). Anyways, I had to get Ken home, I didn't know when this was ending and Nana doesn't have the energy to handle Ariel that long. I felt bad pulling Ken from work, but this was an emergency. I crawled to bed and fell asleep.

Ken was home by 2pm and Nana was able to go. Princess went down for a nap and Ken did some work in the office. I woke up at 4ish feeling slightly better. I was able to eat a bit but had to stay laying down for a few more hours until the pills took effect. By 7pm, I was finally feeling somewhat normal again... still have a bit of pain but I can keep on top of it.

I got my cake done, I will take pics tomorrow, looks awesome and I can't wait to see the reaction. I am getting good practice, and since I have a birthday cake idea for Ariel, any time I can try stuff, its all good. I have to give a big thanks to Nana and Ken for everything they did for me today. Heres hoping my head doesn't go BOOM anytime soon. It sucks.

Ow! I get migraines, but not that bad. I hope that you don't have another one any time soon.
