Oh, I feel bad today ...not (unfortunately - chance would be fine thing) a hangover, but I think I'm dancing on the event horizon of a migraine. I stewarded at the showgrounds on Saturday (group 2 for Mr Camac - I really enjoyed it), and where the group 2 ring is SO noisy & echo-y. I felt a little worn at the end of the day, and Mum was staying with us. I tried to rest my mind on Saturday evening, but it was not on. Sunday morning I felt a bit unwell, but went off with Mum to KCC park to show Xander & the kelpies. It was indoors in what has to be the noisiest place on earth. At least, that's how it felt. I tried to close my mind to the noise and fold in on myself a few times to try to protect my mind, but I kept being pulled back - after all, I was there with Mum, so I couldn't really ignore her. When we left I could feel it starting, and at home I very nearly declined to go to church ... I should have. Instead I went, then did some shopping, came home and ate a little, then to bed.
This morning I woke on time (kind-of - it was 6.30) but I couldn't move. If I shifted my head the pain was blinding. I didn't get up until about 9.30 or so, then it still took me over an hour to be ready to leave. Now I'm at work, and everyone has told me how bad I look. I have called Tony & asked him to call to give my apologies for the judging class tonight - there is no way I can go to the Head Pavilion and be in all that echo and noise and cold for 2 hours. I'll definitely go under if I do that. No. Instead I am moving at a steady (albeit, slow) pace through some work now, and at 5pm I will crawl into the car, go home and go to bed in the hope of defeating it tonight. In the meantime - no caffiene (chamomile & spearmint tea), tiny bits of food (I feel nauseous, but if I get hungry it gets worse - I'm eating apples from time to time), and LOTS of QUIET. Thank heavens the boss is away and everyone else is too busy to talk to me.
Back to it!
