I have missed writing on my blog the last few days....

We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant.
You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard
or just think it's going to get on by itself.
You've got to keep watering it.
You've got to really look after it and nurture it.
- John Lennon

I have missed writing on my blog this weekend! It has been since Thursday night & I have hated that I could not hole my head up long enough to write anything. Tonight will be short but I am going to write a little bit.
I hate that things did not go according to plan. My spinal tap was so painful! Had I known there was non way in HELL I would have ever done it!  The nurse even tried to tell me not to take the 2nd valium because "it's not going to be bad at all" And thank GOD I  didn't listen & that I took the 2nd one, not that it helped. It took the Dr almost an hour and he barely filled 2 vials with fluid & he was supposed to fill 4. I hope they  had enough, because I will NEVER do that again!!!
I have been in major pain between my back which is finally feeling better and then my headaches which are so bad. All I have done since Friday afternoon is lay down.
I did really well with my food all these days except today. Tonight for dinner I splurged and had some pasta & a roll. Lexi made homemade sauce and it was the first time I had eaten pasta since before New Years. One night won't hurt! I will tell you, I feel incredibly bloated & full! But Lexi really wanted to make something special for me and I let her! NO REGRETS!! Back on track in the morning. I have had to drink so much soda because I had to increase my caffeine intake a lot! UGH. I'm not a soda drinker anymore either, every once in a while I will have one., But all along the last few days I have not cheated and had any grain. I can't wait to go to sleep & wake up & Start a new day tomorrow. I'm hoping this killer headache will have subsided some. But I am thinking it won't be that much of a change, since there hasn't been much of a change for the better with my headache in days!
Well, I'm off to bed.
Good night all!
Godspeed!
