Migraine, chicken soup and other things.

I hesitated to share these thoughts here.. I always want to be positive and share something happy or refreshing or interesting to think about.

But today I am in real pain.. a migraine episode that is happening for the 2nd time this week.. severe pain and foggy brain and sensitivity to lights and sounds.

So after I picked up my girl from school, she asks me as usual if I took care of her toys or not !

I always nod my head and make up stories about the things her toys did and how I dealt with them and we laugh!

Today I told her that I was very sick and couldn't even take care of my self.

And then she instantly asked: but if you are sick, who is going to make me my rice and chicken soup I like ?

It was an innocent question from an innocent mind, but I felt sorry for myself.

All I wanted at that moment is a long hug , and maybe I would feel better after.

I cried for a minute, and then took an ibuprofen pill and hurried to the kitchen to make chicken soup. 🍲

And at this moment, I found my daughter coming with a wet napkin to put over my head, and this is what she was planning from the beginning but actually she didn't have a napkin.

So, we actually didn't run out of hummus, but instead ran out of napkins
