Walsall Wonderland

It’s not nice, it’s painful, actually, and I just want to be back to normal, dammit.

So after yesterday’s ordeal of pain and suffering, I’m still feeling like crap today. The migraine is almost completely gone, but there are always after effects. For example. My head still hurts very badly should I bend over. Once your head feels like this, it is amazing to notice just how many times a day you actually do need to bend over. Also, I’m very physically sensitive, so I can’t have my hair up, because it hurts, but I when it’s down it’s in my face and over-heats me.

Okay, I’ve managed to find a not-too-tight headband. Anyway, other effects. Sunlight is far too bright, even at this time of year, and I can’t look to the right without strong discomfort in my neck. But the worst part of it is that I can’t seem to do much without being tired really quickly, and without a pounding pain in the top of my head. That’s really annoying because I’ve got a whole heap of crafting that I want to do, and I’ve not got the strength to do it!

I’ve got all the fabric and notions to make both of my cute little capelettes, but no resilience to actually pin, cut, and sew them. It’s really frustrating, because now I’ve gotten to the point in my week were I am very busy, and I won’t have nearly as much time as I did in the past few days, but I couldn’t do so much of what I wanted to do then, but when I am busy I am going to want to be doing the fun craft projects I’ve got lined up.

Ah well. Here’s a knitting pattern for today. I think this little knitted hippo, called Mybootee Sock Hippo, is terribly cute! I love his fatness!
