Yesterday I woke with a migraine. Perfect. One of those days. I scrubbed my plans to restart my daily walk. Even though the temperature was in the range I love for walking, the humidity was high, and the air quality was questionable. Thinking about each footfall hammering in my already throbbing head nearly made me nauseous. I chose another day of yoga instead. While some postures increased the drumming, at least I wasn’t a mile from home.
I made a fresh batch of tomato sauce since my garden has reached full production mode. But I am baffled and can’t figure out why the sauce is disappearing as fast as I cook it. The sauce, made with my fresh basil, is excellent. At this rate, I won’t have any extra to freeze for later in the winter. Perhaps I need to place a note in my garden planner to double the number of plants I set out next spring.
I was hoping the migraine would ease, but I wasn’t that lucky. A dull, persistent roar was the lowest volume I had heard all day. While it was better than earlier, it still made concentrating difficult. I selected another short book to read, and I finished it in a few hours. Too tired to attempt anything further, I opted for an early bedtime.
I always remember my number one writing priority. My core habits are strong, and writing a little every day is my secret weapon. Yesterday I wrote 220 words.
Did you write yesterday?

You have been getting too many migraines, Jo… I wonder what triggers them? If you wear glasses, maybe they need adjusting?

Yes, it is a pain. I think at least some of them are tied to the weather, specifically thunderstorms. Those seem to come and go as soon as the storm hits.

I am glad it didn’t last long! Its weird but I have times where I will get hit with one between 2-3 in the afternoon and if that happens, I know that I will have it for 12 hours! Not sure what it is about that time of day.

Migraines are the oddest things to try to track and/or predict. I hope they stay away from your. 👍😊
