230/365: penstemon 

Yesterday just disappeared on me! I slept on and off for most of the day and thankfully am migraine free for now. I didn't meet with J in the end ... I had the date wrong and we're not meeting until next week ... so it didn't matter that I wasn't feeling well enough to go. 

I did achieve something yesterday though and that was to place the order for my table and chairs. Delivery has been confirmed for tomorrow and neighbour S will be round to assemble everything on Saturday. I am really looking forward to being able to sit at a table again to eat my meals.

I'm going to walk over to the marina as soon as I've had my breakfast and taken my daily meds. I feel a bit stir crazy so need a change of scene and some fresh air, but without overdoing it ... I feel completely drained from the migraines, so the marina is an easy option and doesn't involve any driving, which is probably for the best. The rest of the day will be spent quietly at home. There's nothing crying out for my attention so I am planning to take it easy and relax.

  1. Glad to hear that you were able to sleep off the migraines and are feeling better, today. Sounds like it worked out well, after all, since the dinner date with J wasn't till next week, anyway! Yay for ordering your new table and chairs and the quick delivery and S being able to help set it up for you! I hope you've planned a lovely celebratory meal to eat at the new table! :) Do take it easy today and give yourself plenty of time to recover from the migraines.

    1. Thanks Bless.Yes it all worked out well in the end and I now have next week's meal with J to look forward to.

      I'm really excited about ordering the table and chairs as well as S offering to set it all up for me. That'll be the dining room finished and one more thing ticked off the list. I'll be having a chicken curry for my first meal!

      Don't worry, I'll be taking it easy for a few days yet. I feel work out, partly from the heatwave and partly from the migraines, so I don't have the energy to do much! xx

  2. That's good news that your table/chairs order was in stock & ready for a quick delivery. Also glad to read that your migraines are gone. I am sure a nice leisurely walk will help clear the cobwebs :)

    1. If I'd ordered the table and chairs earlier in the day I could have had delivery today. S can't set them all up until Saturday so one days delay doesn't matter.

      The walk worked it's magic and has blown away the cobwebs. It's lovely and cool today so no struggle with heat at all and we have more rain promised for this afternoon which means I won't need to water the pots either, so can take it easy. Hope you have a good day xx
