Seems I dont know myself well enough, I thought that I would be quiet around here for a while but I seem more drawn to this place now. I’m dealing w/ bad headaches again and even nasueas again a lot. Today was my first bout w/ seeing spots in my eyes, it’s been at least 9 months since that has happened. Mostly has to do w/ the severity of my headches I am sure. I started my meds again yesterday, which makes me wonder if it’s working or not since I feel much worse today. Maybe it’s causing my body to get back to work and it’s fighting it.

It’s not easy to take care of 3 kids and feel this way. Luckily Dean was home this morning so he could take caleb to the dr, our poor baby has two infected ears. I knew something was wrong, but Caleb has a high pain theshold so it takes a lot for him to tell us if something hurts, I knew something wasnt right after several restless nights when he wakes up in screaming for us. Not to mention he’s just not himself. So needless to say Dean was home a bit this morning and that helps. I dont have to babysit tomorrow so thats good, but my girlfriend wants to go get the kids pictures taken in halloween costumes, so I am hoping I’ll feel up to. It’s odd how my symptoms started this time of year last year? Very interesting. I’ll have to ask my dr about that, maybe it’s some sort of cycle my body has.

Hoping to nap w/ Caleb but doubting it will happen. Well gotta tend to the kids, thank goodness for nap time!!!
