    I bet it has something to do with all this severe weather. The week of the Joplin tornado (and hundreds of others), I could not get out of bed for two days and had one of the worst migraines I’ve ever had in my life. Now our weather is acting up again and I can feel all the similar symptoms coming on again. Hope you recover quickly, but don’t rush it!

        Thanks! 🙂 It hasn’t been as bad as last time but I do have a constant pressure build-up in my head. I’m a living, breathing, walking barometer!

    Feel better soon, Robin. No fun getting a flu in the summertime – just intensifies the heat experience…. 🙁

    Thank you everyone!

    kristinacologne, very glad to hear yours was quick; hope mine will be too.

    LaMaroc, I’m told it’s been beastly hot here the last 2 days, but I have not so much as popped my head out.

    RuthW, I am happily ensconced on the couch & working my way through Doc Martin on Netflix. Quite enjoyable for mindless sick tv watching — reminds me of a polite British version of Northern Exposure.

      Doc Martin! What an adorable, quirky series! We loved it. Have a good sleep tonight, Robin.
