Fishin' for the First Time

Friday I took Hudson fishin' for the first time. He had been asking all week to go and I actually felt good enough on Friday to walk down to the pond. We had bought him this fishing pole long before we ever saw his face and it looks like he's going to put it to good use. But Jason's gonna have to take him fishing so that he can actually catch something. I'm not exactly a fisherwoman. I've never enjoyed it because it required me to sit or be too still for way too long! And Hudson is the same way, so when he lasted about 5 minutes and then wanted to go look at the turtles, that was just fine with me!

Last week was nuts and I'm just hoping for a much better week. I've been having migraines, I've always had them, but they've been awful for about the past 5 weeks. After trying several medicines and none of them helping, I had a bad one hit Tuesday right after lunch. Hoping that rest would make it go away, I cancelled lessons, but by that night I was in tears. By 3:00 a.m. my whole body was shaking, I was hurting so bad. Thankfully my neurologist is also a friend and I knew if I could wait til morning that hopefully she would let me come in so we didn't have to go to the ER. She gave me a nose spray, a shot of fennegrin, and two shots in the back of my skull that numbed the nerves going to the part of my brain that causes migraines. It was crazy, but it worked. I went home and slept for almost 6 hrs., woke up for a little bit and then went back to bed for 11 hrs. Thursday I was still weak and dragging. But Friday I felt great and actually had some energy which Hudson was very happy for!

Hopefully they'll go away soon. Seems that some women's migraines go away when they are pregnant and some of them come out worse than ever. I thought the constant nausea was enough! I'm ready for this to get better like everyone says it should in the second trimester. I've had a few good days and it's just a tease and gets my hopes way up because it doesn't seem to last. I know I'm being a downer. Just be glad you are a blog reader and not having to put up with me on a regular basis! And if you do have to put up with me on a regular basis, I'm so so sorry!

On the bright side, I have a wonderful family who I will take a moment to brag on...Jason is amazing (even if I do remind him often that this is his fault ;) He has been so wonderful. The other night he fell asleep sitting up in bed while trying to take care of me and my migraine. I'm not sure how he's doing it all. His business is in full swing, he's had to write many papers for school and finals are coming up, he's taken over mom and dad role with Hudson when I'm passed out or curled up in a ball, and he's got this wife who has turned drama queen, high maintenance, and whiny, and still manages to love her so much! He's a pretty good ol' boy if I do say so myself! My poor Mom and Meemaw have made any and every food for me. I've attempted to cook several times only to get sick over the smells. They call every day to see what I want to eat and if I need anything. They even put up with my specifics, no onions, I like my bacon crispy, and so on. I'm just awful, y'all, and 5 more months seems like forever away! I'll spare you anymore of my complaining, have a great week!
