I woke up at about 1 AM with a migraine. I tried to fight it off for a couple of hours, but finally gave up and took some Excedrin. That effectively woke me up, at 3 AM, one hour before the alarm, dizzy and wobbly.
I ate something, that helped. I took a shower and did my God Time. I got ready to go. We went to the warehouse.
My headache, happily, stayed gone from the minute I took the Excedrin, so I was good loading everything on the cart. I didn't get a lot of snacks, though.
We went to work and unloaded. We found a coin jam in Soda #2. Ron had forgotten to put a part back when he serviced the machine. Ooops. He fixed that while I brought everything in from outside, and put the drinks away in the fridge.
Snacks didn't need a lot so I focused on helping Ron with drinks. We weren't there for long before we went home.
I was disappointed when we got home, to discover the #6 kids in the yard making racket. I had really hoped I could get a nap. But they went inside pretty quickly (unlike my childhood, they seem to only be good for about half an hour of outside play, unless they are having a party), so I decided to take a chance and lay down.
I hadn't slept well two nights in a row and I had gotten up at 3 AM. I figured pretty good odds I could stand a nap. I got a quick one and got up.
We went to the Indian place nearby. I had Tikka Masala and Ron had Tandoori chicken. They gave him big, boneless, chunks of chicken. He was in love. He gobbled it up with the cilantro/mint sauce while I ate my chicken. I ordered pan bread with it, so good. It was served to me so hot it almost burned me when I picked it up: perfect.
We had a good meal. I took my pills and drank a couple of Diet Cokes. We came home.
It was pill time. I had to "do up" my pills for 2 weeks. That means setting each day's medication, plus supplements, into a pills of the week organizer, times two. 8 prescriptions a day times 14 equals a lot of medication. It takes a while to do it all up.
It took forever, but I did it. I closed them all up and then realized I hadn't done my antidepressant. That would be a bad 2 weeks if I did. I added the antidepressant and THEN closed them up.
I drank my last diet root beer to celebrate.
Now off to call my parents.
