Oh, good. I won't have to worry about the "H."
:-)I actually finished it in the morning. But my migraine got worse and I had to shut the computer down and get back to bed
Aw... Sonia, I feel for you, really. I get terrible migraines, too. Not everyone can take the different medications that are out there. It doesn't work on me all the time, either. Ugh.
Yeah, the meds didn't worked out as well today.. I guess is time to change them again... plus the weather is a bit unstable... that can have something to do it too.On a happier note, SWAT is starting on TV, so, I decided to share the uniform :)
SURPRISE! Hello, Cadet Blue!! I have not been by to see you in so long. Been a very busy couple of months for the baroness. Hope all is well with everyone here. I see you are climbing the ranks of the readers quite nicely, hurrah!
Yes, Sonia, I can do everything right and eat no trigger foods... and then the barometric pressure changes with the weather and I get a horrific migraine. **sigh**
LOL! Thanks, Baroness Blue! I♥Lucy. Or has that been said before?
So everything has been updated! Whew... Thanksgiving (Canadian) with my family this weekend so I have been BUSY! I have work at 5am tomorrow... and I decided to stay at my parents and just wake up early to drive the hour to work. :P
Ahh... we are missing one more ability book, and the letter O to finish.
Thanks for letting me know Lisa Kay! :)
I didnt have time to finish my book on the weekend but today after work I will tackle it :)
I'm calling it a night early; I don't feel all that great. I've read 101 pages today. Here is my detailed Post #22.
Okay cool! Thanks for finishing the O! Just waiting on the last ability and then we are good to go. We are making great progress on our R-A-T! Very proud! :)
We still have one abbility to go? *drops morganville vampires and jumps right in into the body finder*
Yes unfortunately. :( I could read because I was quite busy over the weekend for holidays. Back to reading today though. Also have an audio book I'm listening to.
Haven't posted in a while since I've been trying to finish
, but I've finished it now. Hoping to read some fiction next! My brain hurts.Hope you guys are all well. :)
Interesting book, Emy! Sorry about your brain, but glad you're feeling well enough to read.
Posted!! Now on to the final task. :DPs. I need to leave right now for xrays of my back so I will be home afterwards.

Same here Lisa Kay. I have been listening to an audio book though! I've just been really tired, looking for a second job is exhausting. :(

Take some rest Lisa Kay. You did awesome on this RaT. We all did.I had to take my last resource migraine meds yesterday - they made me sleep from 8 pm to 5 am - so I can relate of not feeling well.
Lord, I hate migraines. They steal my life!
