(15,774 posts)69. Morning Marketeers....
After a weekend that included a zombie sleep, serious cacooning, and a zen knitting session, my battery has been recharged and I am at work today.
Poor hubby asked why I was home so early. When I told him my BP was up, he suggested that they might want to change my meds. Frankly, I don't think I am the one with the problem. What pill is going to help this society or make these kids lives any better. I don't think I have the problem here.
I went to sleep for 15 hours-getting up once to have a banana and water. If you have never had a migraine, the next day feels alot like a hang over without the benefit of the alcohol. When I awoke, hubby and I went to have breakfast and a cup of coffee and I felt much better. Hope springs eternal (how else could one explain the Chicago Cubs).
I then went into a knitting marathon. Knitting puts me into a zen-like trance, my mind goes into auto-pilot. I think it is like a computer cleaning files, your concious and subconcious are working but you are focused on a routine subsystem.
Anyway, I am back at work today. What keeps me going....I feel like Johnny Appleseed. I may not enjoy the fruits of my labor, but they are there. I like to think saved 4 people last week. There is a cumulitive effect after a while.
Happy hunting and watch out for the bears.
