My weekend went well!! I got my first win in this new video game I have been playing :)

I have! I try to take it slow, and keep things as quiet as possible. Putting a cold washcloth on my head also helps.

I'm looking forward to redoing my room! I've been planning to for a little bit :)

oo I'm glad your weekend was okay, it's great to keep caught up with your work! May I ask what you were working on? I'm sorry you have had migraines for so long! taking medicine can totally help us, and sleeping it off is such a great way to relieve the pain! It is nice to hear you are visiting your friends! I know a lot of us are not able to see our friends, because of quarentine, so it is wonderful that you are going to see her/him/them!!!
@Enchantedlove
Hope you had an amazing Labor Day :D
1) Weekend was fantastic, was off work and did nothing but spend it with the family. We stayed in town, because of Covid, didnt really want to go anywhere
2) I have dealt with migraines many times. I cope depending on where I am. If I am at home and could get to my meds fast enough, I lay in a dark room with an ice pack and wait until the meds kick in. If I am at work, I just take the meds that I can take without making me drowsy, ice my head when I can and try deal with the pain/discomfort as much as I can. If i cannot due to worsening symptoms like nausea and vomitting, i end up asking to be sent home.
3) I am looking forward to cool weather and hopefully rain. I live in the desert and have not had any rain, so we are in dire need of rain :)

yay!! I am glad that your weekend went well! it is super important to have family time, so I am super glad you got to enjoy that! I am sorry that you have dealt with migraines alot! They can be super tough <3 medicine can totally help!! if we don't have access to them it can be really tough!! Ice can help aswell. The pain can totally be super hard to cope with, so I understand why you would need to go home! I hope you do end up getting your much needed rain! :) thanks for checking in with us!!

@lovelyjane1
I'm so glad your weekend went well! Taking breaks is super good, and spending time with our families can really lift our spirits! Wow! that is a really long to deal with migraines! I am sorry you have had to! It can be really hard to cope with them, so it is super reasonable that you haven't figured out a way to cope yet!! ahhh yes! the amazing flavours of starbucks in the fall! I hope you are able to enjoy them!! Thank you for checking in with us! :)
