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
😳
Ok… I’ll go first.I opened the fridge, saw an empty hummus container, and immediately questioned every life choice I’ve made. Please share your “it was NOT that deep but it felt that deep” moments.

Is it irrational?
My kid asked me “are you okay?” after watching me drop my keys for the third time. Anyway, what made YOU laugh today?

Welcome to this discussion group — lovingly renamed “I Ran Out of Hummus.”
Welcome to the I Ran Out of Hummus discussion group — renamed for the moments that take you out for absolutely no reason.This space is for the tiny, hilariously dramatic moments that knock you off centre for exactly four seconds.The forgotten snack that ruins your afternoon. The missing sock that feels like betrayal. The AirPod that ghosts you for no reason.😅 Here, we name the ridiculousness — because sometimes your nervous system needs the gentlest reminder:“Okay… maybe I’m not actually falling apart. It was just the hummus.” Examples: “No hummus. Immediate tears.” “My toast fell butter-side down.” “I dropped my coffee. I am unwell.” How it regulates: Because calling out the tiny chaos lets your brain recalibrate. It softens the spike, loosens the tension, and lets you laugh yourself back into your body. Drop yours below — what’s the last microscopic disaster that sent you over the edge?
