friday milkshakes
I've been plagued with brutal headaches all week. I thought the problem was all the chocolate I sneaked from the kids' Easter baskets, but they persist even days after I stopped. Hmmmm.
But end-of-the-week strawberry milkshakes are a good cure for pretty much everything. (Milk, strawberries, vanilla ice cream) Yum! This weekend I'm looking forward to:
• getting back to the shred (the headaches kept me away the last three days)
• a girls' night on a friend's patio this evening
• a long hike and a picnic with a lively group of 6 yr old girls
• a soccer game
• a 40th birthday party
• a couple of long walks with the dog
• testing out the newly repaired (again) sewing machine!
Have a great weekend, friends!

hi! i love your photos. . . discovered you through tara. . or MAV or someone on flickr. your comments about headaches strike a nerve because i too suffer from migraines. topamax and maxalt have been life-changers for me. so without sounding like a drug-rep, i just wanted to mention them. i'm sure you've tried lots of things but maybe not those. i figured it couldn't hurt to mention. .
hope the headaches let you get back to things sooner than soon.

Oh I hope the headaches abate soon. The pollen here has been terrible this Spring, is it bad in KC and does that contribute?

Hi, I just happened to land on your blog while following threads about mayflies. What caught my attention was your reference to having headaches. If you would like to find a natural therapy that can help you, may I suggest that you seek the care of an acupuncturist. You will very likely be amazed how much you can be helped. My best to you.
