Yuk, horrid day...

I went to bed last night very happy.  The new group had gone well, it had received a positive response from those that had attended, and I finally felt that new friendships were on the verge of the horizon, for both myself and for my children - something that I had made my goal for 2010 - a better social life for us all!
 
But, right from waking this morning, my head was banging.  A horrid banging headache that has lasted right throughout the day. I've tried painkillers, I've tried sleeping, I've tried hiding under the duvet away from light sources, but nope - upon waking/getting up again, the pain is still there.
 
So today was a bit of a wash-out really.  The children have pretty much entertained themselves.  Oh how I'm thankful for self-motivated children.  They have read books, surfed the internet, talked to friends around the country via MSN, made pancakes, cooked dinner with their dad, and have generally being wonderful considering I have felt hard-done-by for much of the day. 
 
I did have to go out this afternoon, and was hoping that the fresh air may help, but it didn't.  However my trip out was worthwhile as I found a fab Dinosaur book that will suit all the childrens' ages, and a Human Body book for Tiegan.  She is very much into reading about the human body at the moment, well she has been for a long time actually.  She has sat all evening reading it as I have closed my eyes on the sofa, and as soon as I awoke she rushed over to talk to me about what she had learned.  I love that about her, enthusiasm just oozes from her when she gets really into something. 
 
I'm signing off for the night now - headache still raging.  Tomorrow WILL be a better day.  Our new cooker is due to arrive so it better be...
