I had plans for today, well, part of the day at least. It's Saturday and I was free to do whatever I wanted all day. Gotta luv a day like that ! Late last night though, all of the sudden, I was dizzy as a loon. (I don't really know how dizzy a loon can be, but it must be pretty dizzy ! ) ....and this morning, although not nearly as bad, it is still with me.
Many years back there were three or four years where this would happen before a migraine. Since then, it has rarely happened, but no headache follows, so there is that good part of it.
Spin and spin.... everything spins when I move my head.
I had set my alarm early, intending to go to a garden market or two, to buy myself some flowers. It is late in the season for my norm of flower buying. I have bought them for my Mom and others, but not me yet.
Unfortunately, that wasn't going to happen for dizzy me. I stayed in the bed an extra couple of hours.
Everything was fine as long as I was still.
I finally got up and walked slowly to the kitchen to put on some coffee, then grabbed my phone and crawled back in bed. THEN... I saw an email from one of my sisters saying that Mom had sent homemade potato salad to us and that she was dropping by soon to deliver my share. I got up again to answer her back, change my gown for a pretty lounger and wash my face. It wasn't going to help the way I looked a lot, but I did what I could.
I'm just sure now that I will be better soon, because Moma's food, any kind of it, just makes everything better.
I haven't attempted much as nearly everything includes bending over, turning around, looking up and/or down. I did manage finally to slowly unload and reload the dishwasher and turn it on and put some clothes in the washer, which reminds me, they are done, but still there.
It's really not horrible (like it was last night).... and fortunately I have everything I need right here, but it sure is making my day unproductive. I guess there is always tomorrow....
This was not how my agenda was supposed to be for today....LOL !!!
I hope you are all doing well and that your hearts are happy.
Love you !

I had it back in 1990! I thought I was having a stroke and was on the way out. Was taken to the ER and they said vertigo. Mine lasted a week before I could drive. Horrible. Even my eyes were constantly going from left to right.
Hope you are better real soon!
Thanks !
So far knock on wood...in the past, mine has only lasted a few days, with only one being highly dizzy and the other two, slowing getting back to normal. I am better today, don't feel really dizzy when moving around, but when I DO move around, my tummy is still feeling a little queazy, so, it's not gone, but certainly better !
I didn't know what was happening the first time it showed up, but it included and eye sparkle that I had only heard about before, being associated with migraines, so later, when the headache came on, I was pretty sure I knew what it was. No fun.... no fun at all !
I was thinking about you today and wish I had checked in earlier to see how you are. How's it blowing, girlie? 😍
Well... it's Monday, I'm not sure anyone should ever ask how Monday's are to working girls. LOLOLOL !!
Actually... it's been pretty fine (for a Monday) No complaints over here especially since I am done with work for the day. Yay !
Yay! I take it the vertigo has disappeared? I'm guessing at least manageable if you worked... unless, you have superpowers I don't know about?
It wasnt bad for a Monday. Truth.
Hope you are better now and that the healing powers of the potato salad did the trick. The kids are coming to help me get some flowers planted this weekend. We have had so many late frosts that it is finally nice to see a weather forecast that doesn't include 30-degree nights.
I AM better now thanks !
I know that will be so much fun to get some flowers in. I'm working on mine, slowly.
