My foray into springtime action and ambition did not last very long! Today was cold, damp, and gloomy from the start. My husband had a medical appointment and I went with him, so I thought that I would feel better as the day went on. No such luck. When we got back home, I was feeling achy and light-headed and much in need of a nap. Since I had gotten less than 6 hours of sleep the night before, I figured a bit of shut-eye would do me good.
I woke up with a puddle of drool on the pillowcase due to difficulty in breathing properly. So I flipped over the pillow and went back to sleep. A little while later, same result. Since I do have asthma, I just figured the change in weather was causing all of the problems and got on with the day.
Coincidentally enough, I have been feeling poorly on cloudy, overcast days. If I did not know better I'd worry that I was suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder. But I am not SAD, and the gloomy days coincide with major changes in air pressure. Which always sets off my asthma and usually causes a migraine as well. Hubby has suggested a giant grow-light over the bed, but I don't think that it will help! Some relaxing reading before bed and a fresh start tomorrow is the best prescription for what ails me. And maybe a nice cup of hot herbal tea!
