Day 5 - 153 -- Pain in the Rain

For a Saturday, it was a reasonable day. It began with laundry and some small chores. Through the day I worked at development of an online file that has been at the back of my mind for several days. This work was for me and not for the office. By supper time, the twinge I'd felt when I got up had turned into something rather large and painful. One side of my head hurts from scalp, to temple, to jaw. I've had this head pain in the past and thankfully not often. In the night I'd been sleeping on my side and had to move as the head pain increased with pressure of the pillow. So -- tonight it is running full bore. I took meds when I got up and another with early supper. I found myself eating every 2-3 hours -- a common symptom when I have a migraine.

The weather brought pouring rain overnight and late into the morning followed by intermittent rain showers. The sound of steadier rain on the roof is now present. The temperature fell dramatically from the heat of yesterday. This drop in pressure may have triggered a headache, though that is not one of the main causes of my headaches. A Star Wars marathon has been on in the background of my day -- something fun for when I sit for a rest between major tasks. <smile>

Given the hum-drum nature of my day, it was difficult to find a song that might fit. With my <ahem> determined, tenacious, 'leave no stone unturned' personality, I did find one <grin>.  I'm hoping the headache acts like the female character by the song. That would make me happier. <giggle> Love the newer live version. Enjoy!
