Horrible night...

I am a whiner, I know. There are many people lots worse off than I am in this world... I went to bed with that headache. I took a Mucinex that I remembered I had in my purse, but not pain pills. I kept waking up still breathing badly and in pain. I finally hurt so badly I woke up around 5:30 in agony. I started looking for my Lortab and couldn't find it...I also couldn't find my Rx cough syrup... Where are the good drugs? I started to worry.... I finally took the Excedrine, even though caffeine was not the drug of choice when I wanted to sleep some more. THEN I remembered to look in my backpack that I take with me when I go to Indy and think I might end up staying all night. Yep - I must have been sick the last time! Phew! I would never think Michael would steal my narcotics because he is a health nut and I practically have to force him to take Sudafed and stuff for his headaches, but we leave our house open all the time and I KNOW one of my neighbors is a pill freak and has stolen them from Stephanie in the past.

So after taking the Exedrine I gathered all my comfort items: Ginger Ale, Hello Kitty throw, heating pad, already under the big comforter... Turned on TV Land and listened to The Brady Bunch, Gunsmoke and Bonanza and slept off and on until about 8:30. I feel a lot better now, not in pain, hungry and don't think I'll throw up, but still pretty tired. I will probably try to do my Saturday stuff, and take a nap before I leave for Indy.

I was so sad when I felt so bad that I might not be able to go to Lisa's tonight. I hope I can keep the headache at bay so it can happen. I might also need to be sensible, like maybe do the dinner part, but skip the other people coming later to play games part. I'll just have to see how the head is. If I eat well today and try to rest if I need it and keep the fluids going in, maybe I'll be all better!

So here's my list:
Dump
Clean my room well enough to vacuum
Clean my bathroom
Regular kitchen maintenance catch-up
Sweep and Swiffer
Read 50 pages
Sweep and Swiffer hallway
Laundry complete.
Nap when able.
Evil Empire for money order and new stretchy straps?

We'll see how that goes. It seems pretty ambitious for a "baby the headache" day.

Now off. I want to test my sugar, though it's not really a fasting sugar because I had regular ginger ale, and eat some food.
