Two Days of Relaxing - Or At Least One Day

Yesterday and today were days I needed to rest. I figured out I did get a concussion from the fall, because my eyes where not focusing right. Plus I was a little nausea at times. So, yesterday I slept till about noon.  I didn't get to see Cherrill or go to my message therapy since I had one heck of a headache.

Even though I was told to try and stay away from aspirin, I had to take my migraine medicine. That actually helped. So, I stayed pretty close to home. Didn't go out at all yesterday. Mom was mad at me and told me I needed to see a doctor. I told her that Patrick and Denise were keeping an eye on me and I didn't think I needed to go. I remember when I was younger and got concussions, that they would send me home with the understanding that if I got sick I was to return. Back then, they wanted concussions to stay awake for several hours. I always hated that because I wanted to sleep. Today they say it's better if we sleep. So, that what I did. Even called it a night early last night. 

Then today, I decided I was good enough to do our weekly trip to the casino. They had a "pick the turkey" on the slot machines and both Patrick and I got $25. So, we played a long time on that. We came home with more than we took, which is always nice. 

After the casino we went to Safeway and bought groceries. By that time my brain was telling me it was time to relax again. We came home, and Patrick put the food away and cooked supper. I relaxed for a little while. Then after supper we went to the new "Thor" movie. I really enjoy those! It was just as good this time as last time. 

Now we are home. I didn't do my "crunches" because that was moving my head up and down. Didn't want to get it messed up again. Did do my other exercises though. 

So, the good news is, tomorrow is relaxing and I hope to be able to work on something again. I'm looking forward to having the day at home before we go bowling tomorrow night. 

Life is good, Life is unpredictable, and Life is still going. I may feel down at times, I may cry over the loss of my cat, and I may have a great day with friends and crafts. Yet, Life goes on. I have issue that need to be taken care of, and I have to take each day as it comes. I can do that, and I'll probably be that old lady that lives to be 100 looking for family to be close by. (We can hope)

In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy being Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
