wholefoodnut's Journal, 21 October 2014

Good day for about 1/2 of the day, stress at work got the better of me and spiked a headache, headache from the head injury i'm sure, sort of dizzy etc. Too many issues all happening at once from different directions. Somedays I hate instant messages and email pop UPS. Its different than a normal headache for me. I love my job, I love my job, I love my job, NOT!! No mowing the grass tonight, can't stand the sun. The weekend is supposed to be nice so ok.

Bought some beer, should not have, OTC meds not touching the headache figured something to relax stress tension would help, it has.

New thrift shop cast iron grill skillet works well. Glad I bought it.

Higher calories today, tis ok averages out, I've been low lately.

To bed as soon.

Have you tried lavender oil at work when it gets stressful? Take care of yourself! Watching the game?

Should not drink beer, but it's seeming to help, I hate taking the big gun drugs, I have some. Don't like them ät all. Tomorrow will be ok, I'm sure. I have a high stress job, some days are like that.

Caffeine is supposed to really help with headaches.

No lavender oil but eucalyptus, I should take some lavender sprigs from my front yard into work. The scent does relax. Great idea.... I'll cut some in the morning before work, with the street light I can see them in the dark. I also gave chamomile tea in my desk drawer but no time to get away for a couple to make tea. Just one of those days and still dealing with the after affects of banging my head. Most days it would have simply been just part of the day.

It was too late in the day for me for more caffeine, after a certain point it now prevents me from sleeping, not a good thing.n

I'd love to grow lavender. Heck, I'd love to grow anything. I kill plants. Probably why I'm vegetarian.

Oh stick hardy lavender in the ground it will grow, it's pretty dang tough, even droughts don't hurt it much, it will come back next year.

Headache is gone after a nights sleep. Hoping for a less stressful day today. I will cut some lavender and take some to work.

I know the doc would say 'take 2 & call, blah blah' but ... maybe it's time to make sure you are truly on the mend....?

Glad you are feeling a bit better this A.M. Hope it doesn't get worse at work. Lavender is good...will remind you to breath if nothing else!
