I did it again! and probably be doing it again
Hello, dear read.cash friends, I miss you all and I miss Rusty even more.
He got very busy and was not able to visit my post in last time I did it. I did not have a huge time to spend herein read but I was trying hard as I can. I tried to engage a lot in the comments but I got a bad headache due to dysmenorrhea and skipped meals( di na talaga ako natuto ano?) Last month, I was feeling the same because of skipped meals also. I know I promised myself to take even more care of my body but there I was, I abused it again and I got sick.
But what's good this month is that I self-medicated. the husband was way too busy with his work because of Linggo ng Kabataan activity in our barangay.
My headache started On Saturday( I skipped lunch last Friday)also I woke up with a mild headache, I though it was just only because I teas very cold at dawn but it worsened at noon.
My eye socket is very painful and I felt like throwing up. I guess it was my eyes that are signaling me to wear eyeglasses but I still don't have a budget for it yet. Every time I squat and then stand, my head pulses and it's very painful for me. The light on the outside and on the computer worsened it.
After I had lunch last Saturday, I tried writing an article on read.cash but I cannot concentrate on writing because e my head is killing me, (just exaggerating) but yeah, it's painful and I don't enjoy it.
I decided that I should take a nap on the remaining 30 minutes of my lunch break and went to the stock room to lie down above the stock of tags and report templates. I listened to music as I closed my eyes nad I am very confident that I will be waking up in the time since I had my alarm set for 12:57. And guess what, I overslept for 30 minutes!
My co-workers got alarmed because the pails that are reserved for calibration use is gone from the room and somebody took them to the bunk house near the factory where one of my co-workers stayed. They made a lot of noise and I was awakened.
I looked at the clock on my phone and realized that I was late. They continued on discussing about the pails and I did not understand them until the afternoon.
I drank biogesic but the pain was gone in just a few minutes and came back again. At home, I had to endure the pain because the kids need me. I drank another medicine in the evening but the same happened.
The same goes on until Sunday. Good thing my husband volunteered to do the laundry that needs to be done manually and all I did was hang them dry. Also, the washing machine helped me a lot in washing the kids' clothes and it was a lot easier.
On Sunday night, I had the kids in bed but the pain was almost unbearable and I decided to do tuob (steam). As late as 10 in the evening, I made a fire in the kitchen and boiled water with some leftover rice in it and prepared a thick bed sheet so I could stay under it as I let the porridge cool. It was difficult but I did it with myself alone; I was very careful not to spill the porridge while covering myself and brought my phone inside because it was very dark.
Lots of sweat had gone out of me and just like magic, the headache lessened and I was feeling better, I had been burping a lot too. It took me 20 minutes until I decided to finish. I was soaking wet in my sweat and boy, It felt really great.
Skipping meals is not impossible for me especially when I wanted to do something faster s o maybe I should not make a promise to take care of my body but remember to steam soon when I am feeling some pain.
I am very happy that I was able to pull that off last night because now I am feeling great.
This would be all for now, I'll see you around and keep safe.
All words and pictures are mine.
You should wear your glasses sis, I already experienced that one and it's no joke at all.
