It's all in my head

I've had several entries I wanted to write about lately. The yucky horned worm I pulled off my tomato plant that gave me bad dreams, the fortune I got in my cookie at the Chinese restaurant, the one about how Emma uses words every day that surprise me - today she said "stem" when she picked a dandelion. How we both still have coughs from our sick days, how Libby has been taking steps for a week but just today figured out how to stand up on her own without pulling up first. And how she says Mine! and No no no! But my head hurts. The headaches, they are back. And they are even in my jaw. At night I need to relax instead of straining my eyes and shoulders and fingers on the computer. Yesterday I took the kids to Water Country and took some pain medication before the pain even started. I knew it would catch up to me. I feel like my "quality of life" is being affected by all the headaches. And it makes me MAD. I need to chill. It's hard to chill while in pain. It's hard to look forward to the next day when I'm not sure if I'll have a headache for that activity or not. I love life. I love having things to look forward to. I enjoy the little moments and the big moments. I am like Tom Cruise, a "life zealot". I look forward to being free of this pain.
