    Occular Migraines

    CC- I have occular migraines and I get tunneling vision and dizzy spells. I got to play guinea pig with an EEG, EKG, Holter Heart Monitor and blood tests before my latest neurologist and my current eye doctor diagnosed them. Oddly neither has suggested a treatment, maybe I should ask about that. They are bizarre but short lived. Mom gets vertigo so I guess I am lucky not to have that.

    BSG- Your day sounds nice. Is that kind of a brick?

    OL- I thought you were a snowbird, you have winter?

    It is cold in Texas today and I hate it. Only supposed to get to 55 today, I need to move to the tropics it is too cold.

    CC, do you have low blood prressure? I get faint when i get up too fast sometimes, sometimes a LOT! and have low bp.

    Bleek, thanks. I've already sold 8 prints, I can't believe it!

    Kgirl, i've been to those websites and left messages already. Maybe someone will write back to me some day?

    today's my 5th commute not riding my bike. I'll be ready for Raleighdon when he gets back home. He's my security blanket. who knew!

    Trek, i'll go back to that website again and see if there's a different crack in the door..
    OH cool, Trek, actually i was able to submit the photo on that website!!!

    Good Morning all!

    I agree, sounds better than my day (but it is FRIDAY).
    Done w/ running (for now) so may get in rides this weekend. But I,too, have a bit of the stuffy nose/sniffles and fear a cold has hit! But it's not bad! Chilly (ok, by my thin blood) here in Florida...but sunny. Would be perfect bike riding temp for north of here.

    Big decision today...eat healthy soup I brought (canned) or go to cafeteria and be tempted! Soup would be good for the cold, but so would comfort food!

    Have a great Friday to all!

    hmm

    I have an interesting bike shopping thought to solve. First I have to peek at the cycling facilities available at Curtin and what types of bikes are stored. I'm not riding my good bike there Noone touches me bike arrrrrr..

    I know of a cheap shop on my way to the beach that may have me answer. Uni will be twice a week & it's a short hop from my house

    CC- I knew what a uni was, I had a friend from the southern hemi.

    Last time I was at the Walnut Creek Trail I saw a whole team of unicyclists mountain biking. They were on the extremely difficult Endo Valley. Didn't look like they knew what they were doing but they were having fun doing it.

    Enchiladas and Dos Equis for dinner with my parents and handsome DH. I feel fat and mellow. Tomorrow is a 1st birthday party for my "niece". College roomies baby girl who is so stinking cute it might be a crime, should be fun.

    CC - a nice cheap commuter bikes sounds like just what you need.

    mmmmm. Friday night. A wee tiny drink of pineapple juice with a dash of raspberry vodka and malibu coconut rum. Then off to jiggle at belly dancing!

    For once, we are staying home this weekend. The plan: reclaim the carport so we can park in there again!

    Hugs and butterflies,

    The butterflies are within you.
