Well it was bound to happen some time and for me it was Tuesday night. In fact it was all my Dad’s fault. Tuesday was actually a shocker of a day. I woke up and felt fine but not long after my store opened I was serving a customer and couldn’t focus properly on the computer screen. It was like I had looked in to a bright light. As this has happened to me before I recognised the symptoms immediately as a migraine. I hardly ever get them (not like my poor Mum) but when I do, boy do I go down. I took a couple of paracetemol straight away to see if I could knock it on the head (so to speak), but I really wasn’t well at all. I sat in the back room at work for quite a while waiting for the pills to kick in and started to feel a little better for a while. I felt really nauseous too and light-headed and finally gave up by about 11.30 and told Jody I had to go home and sleep it off. I spent all afternoon in bed asleep. Daniel came home, had his dinner, and then went out singing with his group Vox Montage.
At about 7.30 I got a call from my Dad. I was still feeling pretty crook but it was lovely to talk to him and he really took my mind of things. I hadn’t eaten since breakfast and my stomach was telling me to eat but I really didn’t feel like anything. That was until Daddy started talking about crumpets with lots of butter and honey! Then that’s all I could think about. As Daniel was already out I sent him a text message asking if he could find me some crumpets on the way home. He’s such a wonderful husband and went to four different places not getting home until after 11pm – but he got the crumpets! I only had one but I really enjoyed it!
I have been fine since then and actually have a bit of an appetite back again. Bought more crumpets yesterday and have frozen them for another day. Upstairs for thinking!
