migraines and numbers

First, let me say WOW. I found the counter earlier this morning and I can't believe the number of 'hits' this blog has gotten in only a few hours. I was curious as to how many people were looking and now I know! Thanks everyone for reading and seeing what I'm up to. While I'm not a great counter myself, it's nice to know that computers can keep up with things like that.

Second, I HATE migraines. They come when they feel like it and ruin a perfectly good day. I think I got this one because I didn't get enough sleep last night. My dog, Mandy, the boxer/lab was up half the night barking. It was just so hot that she couldn't sleep. She sleeps in the garage and I let her out a couple times, but if I leave her out at night, she will bark. The last time I forgot to bring her in at night, she surprised a skunk and that was a 3:30am surprise I wasn't ready for!

So finally at 1:30am I gave up and decided she could sleep outside. That meant I was going to sleep on the couch, in case she decided to start barking and wake up the neighbors. I woke up at 6:30am and hadn't heard any barking so I guess she was just too hot to be in the garage. I had tried bringing her in the house, but she didn't want that either and just kept barking.

So, my plans for today have slowed down, but not completely stopped. I'm about to take some stronger migraine medicine and get back to some sewing. I hate just sitting around waiting for the medicine to not work. Ah, the joys of being alive =)
