I’m having one of those days, where nothing seems to be going quite right. I’m not sick now, but last night was rough and I’m feeling a tad overwhelmed. So, today’s post is short and sweet.
Do any of you wear glasses?
And do any of you ever find, (in the same way a foam eye-mask can feel too heavy during a migraine attack), that the glasses that sat on your face perfectly well yesterday suddenly feel uncomfortable? Sitting right on the bridge of your nose and weighing a ton?
And is it just me, or does anyone else in the whole wide world find that the best solution is to put a little bit of folded paper onto the spot right where it hurts, like this:
Most mortifyingly of all, is it only me, or has anyone else forgotten that the paper is there, and opened the front door for the postman, only to have them stare at you strangely?
It’s bad enough that people look like they think I’ve been ‘ripped off’ when they overhear a conversation about me and Botox and misunderstand the ‘treatment’ I’m having, but now, the postie thinks I’ve had a nose job!
I’m not one for ‘leaning into’ my diagnosis of chronic migraine, I think we can do better than that. But there are days when you have to ‘own it’. Today’s ‘one of those days’.
Talk soon and take care, Linda x
