Sucky Saturday

I wish I had a brilliant post lined up for today, but the truth is I’ve had a blah day. Last night’s migraine was awful, it lasted more than six hours. I think it was the longest, most painful and debilitating headache I’ve ever experienced. I went to bed at 8:30 last night and drifted in and out of sleep for several hours. I then realized I hadn’t posted my NaBloPoMo entry, hence the 11:30 pain post last night.

Thankfully, I woke this morning and the migraine was gone. But I was very groggy and sluggish for most of the day. I worked this morning for a few hours and then Dawson and I took a trip to Walgreens. I needed a few things like Excedrin and a new fingernail clipper since the old one seems dull. I noticed it while trying to clip Dawson’s nails.

While were at Walgreens I picked up more OPKs and HPTs (and PNPs, too!). Doug and I believe that this is THE month. I’m down another five pounds and my pants are falling off my body. I bought a belt, but it’s not really flattering with the 3-inch gap in the back. Such problems, I know.

After our mini shopping trip, I drove through Arby’s because I had a craving for a junior roast beef. It was delicious, but totally not worth the heartburn and acid reflux I had later. I think after eating healthy for several weeks, my body is revolting against anything not good for me. Definitely a good thing. I’ve learned my lesson.

I planned to go to the gym today, but Doug didn’t make it home from work in time. I wanted to take Dawson to the child care room but he’s been such a terror today. I knew he’d give the girls a hard time. He’s been having meltdowns all day, over the most ridiculous things, and it’s driving me mad. I nearly jumped out the window.

To make matters worse, Doug was in a crabby mood when he got home, too. I think work was busy and stressful. I feel his pain. My day with Dawson wasn’t exactly easy.

So there you have it, folks. Another blah November day. Tomorrow will be better. I hope. Maybe if I keep saying it over and over it will be true. I sure do hope so.
