Food Budget, Day 9 and 10

For Monday's dinner I used up the leftover root vegetable tagine from Sunday's dinner and made some Thai Green Curry with chicken and vegetables. I also used the leftover chicken from Sunday's dinner. I paired this with some brown rice. It was a delicious and simple meal.

For Tuesday, I really did not do much food-wise. I woke up with another migraine headache. The family had cold cereal for breakfast. I did make some yummy sandwiches for lunch. My head was so bad by afternoon, that Lamar took the girls to bowling just so I could have some quiet in the house.

I had intended to talk about a well stocked pantry and what it looks like for me, but my head hurts to much to think about that right now. I will hit this topic tomorrow.

These migraines are really getting old. I had to cancel on a client today. I really hate to do this, but I could not even listen to the dogs breathe today, let alone carry on a conversation. I know my family is tired of this too. When I am cranky, they all suffer, not just food wise. Lamar was great dealing with the plumbers and getting Nora Beth out of the house for me today. I am sure that I will even be able to talk him into a back rub tonight with the guise that it will make my head feel better.

As I mentioned, the plumbers came to fix the bathtub leak today. The leak was far worse that we had originally thought and they left with almost $700 of our money. This definitely did not help my headache! I did enjoy a bath this evening - it did not help my head, but it did relax me.

If anyone has a great remedy for pregnancy migraines, please send me your ideas. I have done acupuncture, massage, salt water, caffeine, Tylenol, ice packs, cold dark rooms, mediation and magnesium....I NEED HELP!!!!!!!
