Days 64, 65, 66 ~ Migraines, Marathons and Wraps

Day 64 - Thursday

Today was kinda a dead day. I wasn't feeling too hot most of the morning, so my drive to do anything was shot. I did, however, make a full recovery by 6pm when I was heading to my bi-weekly walking group. I did manage to get 3 miles in and did some grocery shopping afterwards. I wish I had more to tell you for today, but once you start feeling bad, everything kinda gets pushed to the side.

Day 65 - Friday

This morning, I had an interview downtown with a big company. If I get hired, I'll share all the juicy details. But, for right now, the interview went well. I fell really good about it and I've already found a daycare for Mark if I do end up getting the job. I will be working Monday to Friday. Mark's daycare will be on the way to work (happy coincidence), I'll be out early every day and I'll have every weekend off. The pay is great, it comes will full benefits and I truly think I nailed the interview. Only time will tell. Fingers crossed everyone! This will open so many doors for my family.

I was so thankful today to get the interview done and finish my errands with little man by 4pm. I got the worst migraine that I've had in months. I ended up taking 4 Motrin and 1 Maxalt (which if you really know me, I hate being medicated for anything). It was definitely needed. A dark room with the blankets and pillows over my head, wasn't dark enough for me. Mark insisted that he be by my side, as he knew I wasn't feeling good at all, so he ended up taking a nap with me under the blankets. That boy is so sweet, I don't know what I would do without him.

Day 35 ~ Workout & Healthy Eats

Last night, Mark and I went to bed two hours earlier than we usually do. I was extremely impressed that it was his idea.

This morning, I had my alarm set for 6:30 am, so I can get dressed and sneak out without waking him and head to the gym. However, at 5 am my body woke up....why???? I was still dressed and out the door at 6:30, but I couldn't sleep no matter how many sheep I counted.

Day 14 & 15/365 ~ Migraines & Paleo Talk!

Day 14 - Monday

Oy.... A day FULL of doctor visits, migraines, honey, naps (not mine) and wishing my toddler was quiet. Oh and my sunglasses broke... damn it.

I got a major eye full (pun intended) today, when I took my dad for a follow up appointment from his retnia surgery that he had a few weeks ago. There are many, many, many reasons why I didn't become an eye surgeon...and a majority of them start with EWWW!

Day 7 & 8 - Migraines & The "Look"

Hello Everyone,

I was unable to write yesterday's post, as I had a severe migraine and couldn't look at my phone, let alone the computer screen. My life was a "dark room."

My day started out great, 6 am in the gym for my first round of circuit training and some light cardio...the endorphins kicked in and I was good to go! I did a lot before breakfast, even with only getting 3 1/2 hours of sleep...thanks to little man. *evil glare*
