Migraines and Chocolate

Yesterday and today I’ve had a migraine, It went away last name but came back today. While I was resting last night I got into my Food Network Chocolate mag and bookmarked the websites on my ipad. Once I was done I checked them out. I found a handful of websites that I’m in love with. One is the chocolateflowerfarm.com I can’t wait to buy some of the chocolate flowers and other flowers that they sell. Growing chocolate flowers would be so cool. I think adding the flowers into Legacy and One of the Boys will add flavor to them.  I also found a wicked cool recipe for chocolate ice cubes, which I can’t wait to try. I may even add the ice cubes to Calla’s Kitchen for her desserts.

In another mag I found a really cool shirt website, it’s whoohagear.com. There were a few shirts on the site that too. The shirts are made for runners, paddlers, walkers and so forth.

Needless to say since I was checking out websites I didn’t get to work on chapter five, not that I would have with the migraine.  When I finished checking out the websites I decided to read the latest chapter of Kim Harrison‘s A Perfect Blood on HarperCollins.com. By the time the new book comes out I’ll have a good portion of the book read I hope. I so can’t wait. The book is so good, and I don’t know if I can’t wait until the 21st.

Today after a nice long walk and after lunch I got another migraine. I want to work on chapter five and I have a new workshop that I’m in but the pain is too much. I also have blogs to edit on the same site as my workshop. Again the pain in my head is stopping me. I hope I might work on it for a few minutes tonight. Cross your fingers for me.

I still need to create synopsis for four stories, so I can post them for you. This week maybe I’ll get some of them completed.

Oh yeah, PBD has a new review of mine up. They posted it up yesterday but with my headache I wasn’t able to tell you about it.


Cologne & Migraines

Today I went out to do some research. I decided it would be good to have a better idea on which colognes would be good for Legacy 1 & 2, Blood, One of the Boys, and any other story that needs a guys smell. The only issue that came about is I had the same response to the colognes that I do with perfume. I got a headache after smelling about three but I had to get more. I ended up with eight different colognes that I could use, but I smelled about fifteen. I hoped that the colognes wouldn’t give me a headache like most if not all perfumes do, but after the first ones I was done. Thankfully I did get through my research. So now I have a few different one to work with. I hope this helps the books as well.


Finished Killing Rites

I finished reading Killing Rites tonight, and I loved it. I’ll be writing my review tomorrow, and hopefully I’ll finish it no later than Sunday. I can’t believe I finished it tonight, for one thing I had an interview today, and a massive migraine. The interview went well, I go back for a second interview tomorrow. Cross those fingers, that it goes well too. As for the migraine, my meds aren’t working so that sucks. But as I laid in bed trying to rest I finished the book, it was a win in that respect.

News from PBD they are doing a charity event that everyone should check out, there is the chance to win a kindle fire. Stop by their website, to learn more.

For tonight I think I’ll sign off have a wonderful night.


Two shots in the head

No it’s not a joke I did get two shots today in my head, the back of my head in hopes that it would head disperse the massive headache that’s been plaguing me for weeks now. It work for a few hours not as long as we hoped but we knew going in that it may only last a a couple. The knots in my head at my pressure points were bad. Lidocaine, by the way doesn’t feel so hot when you get a shot or two of it in the back of your head, that’s just an FYI.

Needless to say my Monday was shot, no pun intended, for me to get any work completed. I couldn’t feel half of my head. And it felt funny, I didn’t want to take any chances with my writing. Though it might have helped, I’ll never know. ;) Now the two spots where the needles went in my head really hurt and the headache is slowly coming back. But maybe I’ll get lucky and the new meds well help, so I’ll be able to start sharing my writing.

I did find this weekend some places that I may want to submit some work too, so I really need to work. Does anyone know a song, dance, or chant, to make a headache go away? I’m in need, I really want to write, for a few hours… Please.


Migraines, Headaches & Reviews

Thursday and Friday I was working on my review of the The Help. Thursday I was looking at the negative reviews so I could get a better idea on what I’ve been trying to say in my review. It helped, and on Friday I started rewriting my review. I got pretty far and was hopeful that I’d finish it on Saturday, that so didn’t happen. Saturday morning came to me with one massive migraine from Hell. In fact it was so bad that it made me sick all day. There were a few times I could lift my head off the pillow and not have to get sick thankfully so Flyboy made me stay in bed most of the day. As you can imagine. He worked on the house, while I was in bed. One of the times I couldn’t sleep and just laid in bed I posted the illustrations so you guys could see them.

Yesterday I worked a little bit more on the review but I still had that ugly headache though it wasn’t as bad as it had been on Saturday. Today I worked on it as well, the headache is still with me but its more like an ache today than anything else, I have taken meds all three days, but they aren’t really helping. My review is like four pages journal pages not notebook pages, ;) .

This week I start two new workshops and next week as I end one workshop I’ll begin another one so a lot of things starting as October is coming to an end. Halloween is right around the corner and I’m not sure I’m in the mood for it yet. The weather is right but since I’m having so many headaches I can’t get in the mood.

Well that’s all I have for tonight, especially with the World Series on, Flyboy is a Rangers fan. We did grow up in Dallas what can I say.


Poetry

This is going to be a small post, sorry, I have another headache today. However I did get work done today. During breakfast I typed up a handful of poems, this was before the headache started. The poems were better today, it seems when I’m angry my poetry is better. That or when I’m sad, go figure.

I’m hoping that tomorrow I’ll get some more poems typed in, and then I want to bake some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and witches brew. I’m ready for autumn and Halloween, this weekend I think the decorations are coming out.
