Yesterday was not exactly a great day.
Finding out some difficult information is tough at the best of times, but I was also fighting a migraine all day.
I kept trying to ward it off with little bits of medication, by avoiding too much light, too much reading, and too much noise.
Once we got home, it just got worse (probably from crying).
I had a bit of a nap, I curled up in a blanket fort, and tried to sleep it off.
I woke up - worse.
With Rj leaving town for the evening and me wanting to hand out candy to the kiddos, I couldn't decide if I could handle it better with a migraine or taking a medication that wipes out the migraine... and my energy.
Well - I went with the latter option after a big meal. My migraine subsided within about 45 minutes AND I didn't unintentionally fall asleep!!
So I got to see all the little ones in cute little costumes and give out handfuls of candy without dreading every "Trick or Treat", doorbell, or barking from our pupper.
Then I woke up today (after having a few stomach issues overnight) feeling actually pretty decent!!
Despite needing Depends, from intestinal swelling or inflammation or a stomach migraine - I'm not sure which, I slept like a rock and I woke up with energy.
I was able to get up, get dressed, have a small bite to eat, then actually do some yoga and stretching!
Furthermore, I woke up with my eyes being extra bright blue. Often when I feel especially ill, my eyes lose a bit of their colour and they can look very grey. Waking up with bright blue eyes is always a good sign that it's gonna be a good day.
Of course, a little bit of yoga takes me out of commission for a lot of the day, but I get to catch up on This is Us, Grey's Anatomy, and my Chicago shows.
It's a good day.
And even though good days still include severe amounts of pain and difficult moments a hundred times throughout the day, it's still a nice day.
I am always thankful for good days.
