Pain is waiting ...

Does this sound familiar?
You have some important event happening: holiday, important visitors, or celebration of some kind, and you worry how your poor head is going to cope but somehow, at the time, you manage quite well. Until it is over.

You relax at last, and then it hits you. The pain has been waiting for you all the time, and when it is over it knocks you down, full force. I know I should not complain, but this is what is happening to me now and it happens every time, it spoils such beautiful experiences

I had some vistors staying with me last week and we had a wonderful time together,and I coped better then I expected (they were very helful anyway) but now I am paying the price.
I hate it when this happens, it is like my head is punishing me for having some joyful times. (No I do not drink, ever, I never do anything outrageous beyond normal socialising either).
Still the pain always waits and it gets you just when you least expect it.

I hear ya, Senna.

That's why I force myself to stop dreaming about vacations. The payback is too high. That much excitement kills me going there, for most of the time, and coming back. It is one big pain fest with small breaks in between, and all because I'm enjoying myself.

I try to make up for it by working on a beautiful garden though, but one day, I would love to step into an ocean that doesn't cause hypothermia within 3 minutes, and to see nature that I have never seen.

My universe seems so closed in sometimes.

I suppose it is the extiment that does it Angela, you are quite right - I think I enjoy simple pleasures in life too much, and anything more then that, is overwhelming for the system.

I suppose it is worth it, and I will do it again, but at the moment I think I will live quiet life for quite a long time, before the next time.
Mind you at the end of May I have to go to a very special weeding - and I know what will happen next!

I know I get excited about weeding, but sheesh Senna! I thought I was the only one. LOL


Anyways, weddings are different. It is something that is dear to your heart and can't be missed. The memories outlast the pain and can be shared over and over again. Hope your body plays a surprise on you and dishes out peace.

Thank you - you know we are forever optimists, arent'we?
I always expect a nice surprise, despite all the evidence to the contrary.
And I intend to dance at that wedding, regardless.I still need to get an outfit, though.

Hope you head is good and the sun just right, not too bright for you today, Angela
