but they certainly make me productive.
I know that seems counter-intuitive but it's true. When I have a migraine, I simply can not sit down in front of a computer. The screen refresh rate is killer when I have a migraine. Sadly, I can't even take meds and then sit down in front of it because that damned screen refresh rate kicks it back into high gear. So, this has been the first time in the past 16 hours or so that it's been safe for me to go online.
Since my dear friend, *Vitamin V, kept the bitch of a migraine in check, I felt good enough to get things done. So,
today during the day on Saturday, I folded two loads of laundry, dried one load of laundry, and washed one load. I put away all of Gabriel's clothes that had been folded over the past few days and made sure my little ragamuffin took a bath last night. On a side note, Gabe washes his own hair now. I just have to supervise to make sure he actually washes and doesn't just play in the bath. I made 6 dozen+ Oreo Truffles in chocolate, cherry, and mint flavors. I cooked Chicken Ranch Quesadillas with chicken for dinner (made 17 so there would be leftovers). I also helped Marty make a spicy cheese ball to have with crackers while we watch the Super Bowl on Sunday. And, I did all the dishes from Friday night (was a slacker on Friday) and all the dishes that were dirtied through baking and cooking and eating. Oh yeah, sometime in between it all, I also deep conditioned my hair.
If I could guarantee this level of productivity, it would almost make having migraines tolerable.
What have you been up to this weekend? Have you made anything special to munch on during the Super Bowl? Are you cheering on one of the teams or are you just watching the game for the commercials?
*Vitamin V = vicodin

The Super Bowl isn't as big a deal for us in our house, as we are CFL fans. We're watching it, but really aren't into it. And we don't even get the good commercials (or at least not many)... the way Canadian tv works is that if a show is being broadcast on a Canadian channel and an American channel, the Canadian channel will take precedence (ex. if something is on NBC and CTV, then it will end up technically being CTV on both channels) and we will get the Canadian commercials. We have to watch the cool commercials on YouTube later. Bummer!
Other than that, our weekend has been mellow. Grocery shopping, a haircut for Ginny, and a potluck at church (the black bean salad went over very well).

Honestly, I like watching the SB because it's as close as the NFL gets to CFL football, which I was born and raised on.
