yikes! woke up w/a migrane around 4:45am & it didn't even start going away until around 11am! this was the worst i've had in about 2 years! my face, head and down into the back of my neck hurt & burned so bad i seriously wanted to smash my head into the wall.

i was so desperate, i took my last half of a 50 mg vioxx (the only thing to ever get rid of my migranes & arthritis pain ~ people w/heart disease who abused it deserve(d) what they get (got) ~ why the hell should i suffer as a result?! it belongs back on the market!), but, it was so bad by then, it didn't do much good.

i couldn't lie down because that made the pain worse, so i had to sit up in bed, w/my head slightly back against the pillow & try to distract myself to fall asleep and i only dozed at that. i didn't get out of bed until after 1pm today!

i think it's gone. i'm never really sure for the first few hours afterwards. i'm weak & a bit feverish, but way better than this morning.

and that's on top of starting to have kidney pain monday afternoon ~ kidney stones again! (been down this road enough to know w/out a dr telling me!) so i've been drinking more than my fair share of water which has kept me up for 2 nights w/constantly having to go to the bathroom!

it's been raining here since last night. warm though so that's good. a bit humid too. what's left of the fall leaves, which isn't much, stands out against the grey of the day. i know i've said this before, but, i love grey days like this! (i wouldn've loved it more today had i not had that damn migrane since there was a lot i wanted to do around the house today!!!)

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) **UPDATED!** This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook

(Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun
