slowly getting my life back!

the play is finally over, and it made me feel so poorly, i was so tired this cold bug hit me harder than it would normally, and then i got what i think must have been an all day abdominal migraine yesterday. i usually get them only at night, and had a bad one very early tuesday morning, about 3am, then it was still sore once i woke up, got better then got awful towards the end of the play, i had to go and sit in a puddle on the floor for the last 20 mins and missed the end of the play and all the thank-yous! needless to say i was much better by the time i went to bed last night, and this morning i feel like there's nothing the matter with me except a bad sore throat. the abdominal migraines are definitely stress related, so that explains it.
the bride was round for a fitting this evening and it went very well, i need to remember to take a lot more out though, because she's losing weight, unsurprisingly! she's changed her mind about fabric though, she wants navy dupion silk for the skirt and bodice, very plain, and "no puffy-ness" so i'm going to find some patterns for skirts to show her, and we'll see. i hope i'll be able to show you photos come the end of march, don't want to before then in case the bridegroom sees!!
i now have a week to my self, and really should get on with my ball gown, but i want to make some bags! i made a lovely pink one a few weeks ago, i should take a pic to show you, it's very pink!

Hi,
You poor thing. Glad for you that you came trough all the hard work. I really know how you suffer with your migrene. I have the same, and it definately is stress related. I often get it when i have two many clients at my work. I always knows when it is comming, i first feel strange in my head, like a very heavy head, and then i think i have something with my hormones, because every time i get it, i have to go to the bathroom and pee, all the time.
My doctor prescribed me some pills called Imigran, wich are rather good. They make it go away about 1 hour later. Sometimes it only lasts a coupple of hours, and then the migrene gets back, and i have to take another pill, but they are a great help.
They used to be very expensive, but now they make parralel medicine much cheaper!
I cant waite to see your bags, its always very nice making bags. I make then two with embroideries.

thanks bjarne, my mother has the worst head migraines, and i've never suffered from anything like that, but then a few years ago i started getting these horrid tummy aches, and the dr thinks they must be migraines, but i've never had one in the day before, just shows how stressed i've been!
so glad you have something that helps you. bag photos will be on the way later!
