I woke up this morning with a horrendous headache #8 1/2. So much for progress today. I spent sometime by the wastebasket and wished the pounding and rocking would end.
Somehow between exedrine, tylenol, prayer, extra angel help and a wet washcloth doused with lavendar and peppermint I made it to church to lead the children in singing.
I left early and came home to sleep my headache off only to find that it still rode my neck like a determined cowboy when I woke up.
I went through my checklist of "things to do when you get a headache" and checked them off one at a time then I noticed the acronym EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique.) I figured that I had tried everything else so I went through the exercise.
Surprisingly, my headache went from a #4 to a #2. I am now able to think clearly enough to look at things more clearly and evaluate my options for the rest of the day. My attitude went from "poor, poor me" to "The day isn't finished yet. I can still do some good before it's over." I thank my Heavenly Father for his blessings today.
