the bad equation

rain + migraine + stomach bug = a very bad sad depressing day :(

and since it's raining it's only 50 degrees in my house right now...brr.

that's where i find myself right now. at home on head-teacher and director mandated bed rest.

last night i came home and was just weary and exhausted from a really stressful day. i was just tired so i went with rachel to go get my nails done. when i came home i made myself dinner and talked to my mom. it was around then that started having my migraine.

generally my migraines come in different levels of pain; this one was pretty bad so i decided that i should call it a night at 8:30. so after a fitful few hours of dozing off i slept until 2am. at 2am i felt very nauseous which is typical when i receive my migraines but it also normally means they are almost gone. so i still had hope of going to school.

that was until i spent a half hour in the bathroom. at 2:30 i crawled back into bed exhausted and what i thought...empty. unfortunately not the case. i spent the rest of my morning trying to find a way to sleep that would not trigger my reflex.

so at 6:00 I crawled out of bed to shower in hopes that the lukewarm water would make me feel better; nope. so at 6:30 i sent word to my head-teacher and the director that i would be coming in to write sub plans.

so off to school i went. thankfully i did not feel the urge to throw up while at school, but as soon as i got home it was there. our cleaning girls are here so i'm trying to hold off until they leave.


please pray that i can stay hydrated! i haven't been able to keep even water in me this morning!! :( also please pray for whoever has my class. my class has been in rare form this week causing all sorts of issues.

please pray that God will talk to me today as i take lesson 2 in letting Him take charge. forced relaxation needs to be more fun and less sickness...in my opinion.

Verse of the week from the elementary staff meeting- also a good verse for me to memorize when dealing with my class...

Galatians 6:9
"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
