Maybe it's the fact that I drank 2 glasses of wine... but 2-3 nights a week I enjoy a glass in the evening, and I haven't had THAT much... Maybe it was all the cleaning solutions... I went a bit obsessive earlier cleaning the kitchen. I just like the house to be nice and neat whenever I leave town, so I can come home to a clean place... Maybe its the stress... or perhaps a combination of all of it. I'm not headache prone though -- and I really hate this. I have a sore back sometimes and back pain is no good... but headaches, I never get those. I think I've only had one headache in my life that qualified as a migraine. It's just so bad right now -- my eyeballs hurt. Still, sleep eludes me. I'm just antsy. I want so much to go and be with my husband right now.. but there are loose ends to take care of first. I put this in my blog, but not everyone reads blogs... today, my father in law passed away. My husband was with him, thankfully... as he has not been doing well for the last few weeks. He passed in peace... in his sleep. I suppose... that I should indulge in my massive headache... becasue I'm still here and healthwise, I'm well. I hope to live another 50 years... and a headache here and there is a blessing. Today it's been hard to count my blessings. But there are still so many. |

So sorry to hear about your FIL, April. How fortunate that your DH was with him! I'm sure it's the cleaning fumes and stress that have given you the headache. My prayers are with you and your family. I'm hoping you're in bed and asleep by now since it's almost 3 AM CST. And that's where I need to head in just a couple min. Wish I could offer more comfort, but I am half asleep. Nighty-night, try to sleep tight. |

My thoughts are with you and yours too, April. I am hoping you woke up headache-free. |

Thanks very much y'all... I did get a good night of sleep and when I woke up today, my headache was gone. I talked to my husband late last night and he's also just exhausted... emotionally and physically, but he seems to be doing really well considering. He's the "take care of business" person in the family and tends toward making certain everyone else is ok before he makes sure that *he* is ok. The way I see it... that's my job right now. He doesn't feel comfortable expressing emotion in front of people he isn't very close to -- and so it was difficult for him yesterday with the Hospice Nurse there and the Care Giver and then the people who came from the funeral home, etc. He wasn't really able to allow any emotion to come to the surface until he was alone later and we talked. I can't wait to be out there -- I know he isn't really eating right now and probably isn't getting enough sleep. I know that in time, things will balance back out though. Thank you so, so much for your support and understanding... it feels good to be able to simply vent out some things and be heard... April |

I am really sorry to hear all that, I do hope it gets a bit easier, a suggestion? If you get hit by a headache like that again, you might just try rubbing some lavender oil on your temples! |

Ohhhh Lavender oil on the temples. I dont have a headache but I think that would still do some good.  Hope you feel better April. |

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Days I don't have a headache are great for me. I hope it was just a temporary thing. Maybe with all the stress you became a little dehydrated, too. That can cause them. Again, I'm very sorry for your loss. |

Glad your headache is better and I'm so sorry for the loss of your father-in-law. |
