Damn Headaches!

I have a headache – what else is new?!

So does my daughter – And I really hate it!

Kids shouldn’t get migraines – that is true!

But my dancer did – she felt like shit!

She missed school again – which really sucks 
But I wasn’t going to send her – not feeling that bad!

So she stayed with her Mommy – awww shucks!

It’s hard to rhyme with sucks – don’t get mad!

This is really silly – but that is me!

Sometimes I just don’t – know what to say!

So I write mindless stuff – now you see!

If you understand – give me a Hey! Hey!

Wow! I should stop – I really should!

This is truly ridiculous – that is true!

I’m ending this now – it’s no good!

I’m tired anyway – with this damn headache too!

Night all💤😴

Same Old’ Same Old’

A new day a new thing to write…right?? Perhaps not☹️ I’m sorry, but I think that my writing has gotten almost tedious. In the sense that I just sit here and ramble about my day. How exciting is that? Especially my days!! I do nothing!!! But, without a better idea or topic to write about, here goes the rambling. In three, two, one And GO!

So, of course it snowed, throne time I say ” as long as it doesn’t snow tonight…” Guess what happened? It snowed! It’s like one of those Murphy’s laws…so, instead of my hubby driving the death trap Miata on the snowy highway, I ended up driving my oldest to work, with the younger two tagging along (they had no school today -they got a weird PD day in the middle of their week!). My hubby took the black car (the one my daughter usually drives) to Lloyd. After dropping her off, we picked up a couple of my middle daughter’s friends and dropped them off st the Dollarama (from there they were going to DQ). My little man and I came home and played games on the bed and watched kids shows and played on the iPads, etc. Then we picked my daughter up from DQ and drove her home, she quickly got herself ready for dance, while I made her something to eat for dance. Then we drove, well I drove her to dance. Then we drove back home. My son and I played around in the van for about ten minutes, until my hubby pulled up. We all went inside and I made a boring supper. We were just sitting down to eat when my oldest (my hubby had to go pick her up) got home. She ate with us while her and I watched a show. Then I finally gathered my son’s library books for school and took him up to bed. The rest is history…which lead me to this moment…pretty exciting stuff eh? Not at all boring and repetitive and, well who cares??? Why am I recording my boring -ass day to day activities??? Again – who really cares about all of this. I haven’t written anything interesting and insightful and inspiring in ages. Argh! So you get my day! Yay?!?!?! Too frustrating. Maybe I need to come up with topics to write about…like when I’d write all about TN or maybe I need to go back to my book. It’s still in my head, wanting to come out. I didn’t get a lot of feedback on it, so I wasn’t sure how to proceed…sigh…who knows. Yes. Maybe that’s what I’ll do. I must back track and see where I ended it off. I think it was when she found out that her mom had been with the Angels every day and that her dad was the Angel that her mom is actually with. Something like that…food for thought.

An Ordinary Day

I’m feeling awfully bla today. I’m not sure why. I have a bit of a headache and feel nauseous- again, but don’t think that has anything to do with it. I didn’t accomplish a thing today, if that makes a difference. The only times I really left the house were to get the kids after school and to drive my daughter to dance after school. Once we got back, my son and I had fun watching Frozen together. We sang all the songs really loud and he pretended to have ice magic. Powers are powers right! I like that he pretends to be Elsa and that it doesn’t yet matter to him that she’s a girl! After supper my oldest and I watched a couple tv shows together and talked a lot about how weird it is when (Frozen spoiler alert) Hans turns out to be the bad guy in Frozen. It’s just weird, it’s an abrupt change in character. She watches many you tube videos about Disney theories, which are basically different theories/thoughts/ideas about certain things that happen in Disney movies. There are thousands of different ones. She showed me a couple that try to explain the whole Hans thing. There’s a broken mirror theory and a troll plot theory and something else, I can’t remember. That was pretty much my whole day. A day in the life…not too exciting right?  Sorry this is soooo bla bla bla tonight. That’s just how I’m feeling right now. So it’s showing up…sorry.

I think that I have car-pooling plans in place for pre-comp (a dance thing) next week. It just makes sense, instead of having three separate vehicles driving to Fort Saskatchewan from Beaumont on the same day. It looks like I may not have to drive at all. I might just be the passenger with my daughter. That will be nice! Nothing to get nervous (for no reason) about!! Hopefully the great weather stays. It’s been ridiculously nice out, considering the time of year! Super nice! I’d like it to stay for at least tomorrow, because my hubby has to drive the Miata to Lloyd and I hate him driving that car on the highway in the winter. If he were to get in an accident in that car, he’d be in trouble!! Freaks me out! Speaking of worrying about things! I hate that! It scares me! Now that’s something to worry about!! Well, now I’m rambling about nothing…I’m going to head to bed now. Night all 💤😴

To Bake Or Not To Bake…That Is The Question 

Another day with a tired, achy me. Except tonight I’m feeling super nauseous too, could be the headache…I’m not sure. We had a pretty relaxing Sunday. Our friends baked cookies with some medicinal marijuana in them and gave me one to try. She bakes with it all the time and said that she can teach me how, if I want a different way to ingest the medicine. They were really good. The way you feel afterwards reminds me of when I use the oil and not the vaporizer. Because it’s more of a body high, than a mind high…if that makes sense. I haven’t really noticed if one works better or not for the pain, but the nice thing about the body high is that I don’t feel so out of it and loopy. So, I may take her up on her offer to bake a batch of cookies or something along those lines. Then I can cut them into quarters or thirds and freeze them and have them ready for whenever I need one. You just grab it and it’s easy and not smelly. I really like the idea. I’m sure I could google it, but I may as well take her up on her offer. I know it has to be heated to a certain temperature and mixed with or rather cooked with something with oil/fat in it, like butter or cream. But I don’t know the exact details and the medicinal marijuana isn’t cheap, I may as well learn from someone who knows how to do it. Hey, if it makes me feel better without the loopy side effects, why not give it a try right?! I know people who’ve done it wrong and lost a bunch of their supply, so I want to do it right! I’ve never been much of a baker too. I guess we’ll see. I’m going to lie my weary head down now. I’m so sleepy tonight. Yawn! Night all💤😴

Tired Tonight 

Feeling tired tonight. 

My head doesn’t feel quite right. 

Went to Mom and dad’s today. 

Wanted to see them before they go away. 

Played a couple games while there. 

Looked at old photos. From where?

When Mom was young and before. 

Her parents, relatives and her grandma’s hat store. 

Had a nummy pork roast with the trimmings. 

Too much good keeps me from thinning. 

Later I watched a show called Bull. 

Of important messages, it was full. 

Entertaining it really was. 

Now I’m tired and ready for bed, because 

It’s getting late, I do recall. 

It’s time for me to say Night All 💤😴

Eye Doc

My oldest and I had our eye exams today. I found it interesting that he asked me if I have a hard time seeing while driving at night. Only because of the post I wrote a couple of days ago about driving in the dark. Now I wonder if at least part of it is because of my vision. The eye dr said that both eyes have gotten worse, but especially my left eye. The problem is…glasses are expensive! I can’t just simply order another pair. We have to look at our budget and gradually find a way to afford new glasses. Which sucks, because it’d be nice to have glasses that are up to date. Oh well. Hopefully I won’t have to wait too long. 

I have an awful kink in my neck today that is killing me. Almost anyway that I turn my head hurts. I don’t know if I slept weird or what, it’s driving me crazy though. My oldest had her meeting with the tattoo artist today. She decided on the pretty turtle that she liked. I think she’s doing it on her shoulder. Her appointment is for next Friday. I’ll post a photo on here once she’s gotten it. I think she’s nervous and excited at the same time. I’m keeping this short tonight. I’m not wanting to go to bed late because I slept badly last night. Night all💤😴

Almost Time For Pre-Comp

Today was a lazy day. I accomplished nothing of value. Just very lazy, headachy day. I finally picked up my migraine medicine last night. All these headaches and I kept forgetting to pick it up. Anyway. I forgot on our way home last night, but just decided I really wanted it, so I hopped into the van and picked it up. Finally…

So Miss Amanda finally sent out all of the information about pre-comp (competition). She rents the Dow theatre. Then she hires a “judge”. Then, beginning with solos, duos & trios and working her way into groups, she runs through every single dance that is entered in the competitions. Sometimes she’ll run a number more than once, if she needs to. It allows the kids the opportunity to have their first performance on a real stage (they actually are in two competitions at this stage, as well as it is where they do the year end show.) They get feedback from an actual, impartial judge, who writes out her critiques the same way a judge at a competition would. It also gets the first time jitters out of their system. She has the kids treat it like a normal competition, wearing their costumes as well as having their hair and makeup done. It’s also a nice opportunity for the parents to get to watch for the first time and record it, for the child’s rehearsing. The date is February 7. I sure hope that all her costumes arrive by then. It’s a long day, she’ll have to miss the afternoon of school, but I think it’s worth it. After pre-comp they only have about 6 weeks to practice before competition season begins. Late March. 

Well, I think, for tonight, I’m going to be calling it quits. Too tired and headachy. Night all💤😴

Asleep – Mostly

I have issues with driving my daughter to dance.  Not serious issues, but if I don’t have to, I’d really rather not. Well, actually, I think my bigger issue is driving in the winter, which isn’t that bad right now and driving at night – in the dark. I don’t think it’s actually taking her to dance, it’s driving in the dark. I don’t know what is going on with me, but I’d really rather not drive when it’s dark, if at all avoidable. It’s not like I’m shaking in fear or anything. I’m fine in the moment, I don’t really feel anxious or anything while I’m actually driving. I just seem to have this feeling of dread when I know I have to drive at night. Weird right? Perhaps I’m losing my mind. 

I still have a headache. I think it’s been two weeks now, but who’s counting. I can’t think of anything that is different about the past couple of weeks, it just sucks. It’s better than when I’m having a bad face day though. Headaches are frustrating and can be debilitating, but not nearly as much as my face pain is. 

It’s 10:30. I’m going to try to get my butt yo bed early tonight. I’m not sure how well I’ll sleep. My oldest is out on Whyte ave with her friend from work tonight and I’m sure I’m going to be half awake, waiting to hear her safe arrival home, before I can fall asleep asleep. My dad was always half awake waiting for my sister and/or I when we were out. He’d always say hi and goodnight and then go gully to sleep. I always knew why he did so, but now I really know why he did. It’s just one of those parenting things I guess. I’m going to hit the hay. I will at least be relaxing and lying down until she gets home. Night all. 💤😴

Refresh 

I’m drowning myself in pain, 

And I doubt it will be able to meet the other side.

I’m stuck in the depths of it,

And the tears flow down like rain!

I’m sick to death of this game,

The time seems to stop and leave me stranded, 

In this straight-jacket of fear

And it all feels like more of the same.

I’m giving into it all,

I’ve felt the fight drain out of me.

It leaves me even more vulnerable and raw,

And I fear I’ll trip and fall!

I’m playing the same old moves,

Over and again until I’m numb.

Yet nothing changes, the pain still lingers,

And I don’t know what it proves!

I need a different regime – a set of moves that are new and fresh!

Would new actions shake things up?

How do I find these new moves?

Just what will help me hit refresh??

Her Cruel Heart

Recklessly she has been the best of all at attention seeking 

Regardless of the hurt or distress she causes in her path

Selfishly she claims she’s your friend, but she’s in it for herself

Caring little about the consequences or cost of her cruelty

Certainly she carries her own pain, likely it’s the cause 

The cause of her abhorrent behaviours and actions

Still, understanding the cause doesn’t make the crime acceptable 

She will continue to smile, while she stabs you in the back

If it suits her, she’d twist the knife in further or tenderly pull it out

It would depend on the attention she received and from whom

So watch yourself around her, don’t get too close, you could become her next victim
