Sorry you aren’t feeling well. If it is any consolation, you look good. Love that sweater on you. Hopefully your migraine leaves today. Fingers crossed…
K, Have you tried Advil Migraine? I get them too, sometimes so badly all I can do is curl in a ball on the cold bathroom floor and let the tears run out of my eyes. I have a prescription for Imatrex but the Advil Migraine really works if the migraine isn’t too far advanced or severe.
Also, I think this is one of my favorite outfits…you look tall, slim and casually elegant!
Thanks. I hope that sweater survives me washing it today. I was out with one kid and got dust from nuts on it — my other child is severely allergic to nuts so it needs a thorough cleaning …
by the way, do you like Advil migraine better than excedrin migraine — I had to take excedrin migraine three different times in four days this week. hate it. not supposed to take that much and it makes my heart race. imitrex messes me up even worse!
