I'll apologize in advance for the craziness of this post. I have brain babble today. Everything I see, think, and hear is confusing to me. It happens sometimes when the headaches are at their worst.
Words get jumbled, sounds get muddled. It can last minutes or hours. Once or twice it has lasted for a couple of days. I'm hoping this bout will pass soon. I just have to sit or go to sleep for a while.
I blame the medications I had to take when I first started seeking treatment back in 2010. I was on so many medications and they were changed so often that I developed more problems. One of the worst is tremors in my hands. Sometimes they shake so badly that I can't hold anything. Even at the best, there is a fine tremor in them that makes it hard when I'm painting or drawing small details. I get very frustrated, but I'm learning to keep trying.
For AEDM, I spent some time painting these clay pieces I made a few weeks ago. I've still a little ways to go, but it was all I could do today.
On this mornings walk, I followed the path I took yesterday. There are two bridges on this route. The first goes over the Deep River and the second over a swampy area that leaks off the river. Yesterday when I crossed that first bridge, I felt a bit nauseous and jittery. I turned back around and headed back at the end of that bridge and felt the same feelings as I crossed it. I chalked it up to having not walked in a day or two and my footing being slick from the rain and fallen leaves.
Today I went back the same route and when I hit that first step on the bridge, the nausea and jittery feelings returned. As soon as I stepped off the other end, the feelings went away. I kept going and went on across the second bridge.
thanks for stopping by!
love & blessings
