I haven’t really gone on vacation…but it sounded better than saying “hey I’m back from the break that I didn’t mean to take from my blog.” I’m sure you can agree.
Sooooo much has happened since I last posted really sat down to write a post. {I started this post beginning of August, smh}
Lately I have been going thru a lot of things…not all bad or anything, just a lot. I was having awful migraines so I went to the doctor…they said everything looks normal and gave me a prescription for the headaches. Well I don’t wanna be on those kind of meds ya know? The kind that keep you put because you can’t drive with them, yet I have to take them at work because that’s where the headaches are mainly from…it wasn’t fun. If you’ve ever experienced migraines or headaches to the point of having to obtain a prescription then you know what I’m talking about. I’m sorry, but I have no interest in being a zombie.
I had an appointment with the optometrist scheduled and after all the tests was told that my vision was spot on. Really? You have got to be kidding me. I was thinking if this is the second place to tell me there’s nothing wrong with me I’m going to spazz. Even if it was being told to me by a handsome bald doctor…spazzing would commence if necessary.
The eye doctor said that the reasons why I may be experiencing vision issues and headaches are because of my work computer. Honestly enough, several months back our work computers had new operating systems installed and ever since then I’ve seen an increase in my frequency and intensity of my headaches. No matter how I’ve tried to adjust the screen settings I would get no relief. Until now.
The doc prescribed me glasses to use for computer use. Specifically my work computer. I do wear them at home sometimes when I’m on my laptop…like now, when I’m doing a blog post and the background is white. The glasses help to cut down the glare and cut down on the eye strain…hence the ridiculous headaches.
This is my first week wearing them. They take some getting used to, but I can say with confidence that by week end…my headaches have improved. I’ve only had a couple this week and they were really onset for other reasons. I haven’t had to use the prescription and I’m grateful. **updated** it’s been a month now and I’ve hardly had any headaches. Any headaches I have had are due to the nature of my job as it is. I’m truly grateful that I haven’t had migraines and haven’t had to take the zombie meds at all!
I won’t even go into all of the symptoms I have from my current work. It’s really crazy when I think about it, but until there is change on that front, it’s best not to post about it… #changewillcome
If you’ve ever experienced crucial headaches then you can understand why when I come home from work the LAST thing I wanted to do was open up my laptop.
I have had a change in my schedule at work. In the few weeks since it has changed I haven’t been able to get myself accommodated. On top of that there’s all kinds of change going on at work and it’s been highly overwhelming. Add on top of that all the clutter that I feel is coming at me from every angle when I come home…whew yeah that’s where I’m at right about now…just a tad bit overwhelmed.
A couple of other things have happened… the kids and I went on another beach trip.
DH got a new car!! This is crazy awesome because his last car was crappola and now it feels much better knowing that he’s okay when he’s driving. Getting back to the world of a car payment and full insurance isn’t great, but the way it all worked out and will continue to work out makes all the difference.
Buddy Boy lost his first tooth!!
So now that I’m back from my blog vacay I am looking forward to getting back to my love. And a side note…to my giveaway winners wondering why I’m so slack…all items have been sent with bonus goodies due to my just not being able to get it together : )
