Hi I just thought it would be nice to add some things that make me smile!

I've had a wonderful couple of days!

I came home yesterday from visiting my very good friend in Oxford, and it really was a tonic for me and i hope for her too, the journey home on the train was good and so was the evening sitting on the sofa watching telly and catching up with my partner.
 But i am sorry to say my night in bed was not so good, at something past 3am i was woken up by a head splitting migraine and i really was a big one so after taking a nasal spray and managing to get downstairs to find a cool and sooth sheet for my forehead i made my way back to bed feel very ill and somewhat sorry for myself!
 I'm not sure what time i got back to sleep i think i took some time as my head really did feel like it was trying to split open and i had that nasty sick feeling for a while, but i did finally manage to settle back to sleep and finally woke up at around 9am, and the only way i can describe how i feel today would be to say hollow its a feeling i am used to and can still function with, but needless to say i would prefer not to feel this way.
So i guess its just another migraine to tick of and move on from here's hoping that the weekend is better for me as i am still off work until Monday and really would like to make the most of my final couple of days off.

Some weeks just seem to go on and on.

Well this has been one of those weeks that seems never ending! But after working all weekend in some of the best weather we have seen in ages, it is finally all finished and I have started my week off so really its all good and only one migraine in the past week so things are looking up! But best of all I am going to see one of my oldest and cloest friends yes Nic that's YOU!!!!! I am always so excited to spend time with people care about so hopefully this week will really lift my sprits!

Oh well.......

Today was not really what i had planned for my day off, started off with a migraine waking me at around 8am i managed to get back to sleep for a while which i think helped, then got up to start the day with a nasal spray, not ideal but better than a full blown attack.
Its 3:16pm now and i am just left with the remnants of the migraine which thankfully turned out to be not so bad and i have managed to get most of my planned house work done. Which does at least mean that i have my next day off on Monday to myself........hopefully.
I do seem to be handling the new preventative medication ok, no significant side effects so far and less attacks for sure, so i am happy with that. I guess i have to wait and see if my body decides that it is going to continue to tolerate this medication.
