Yay!
I made it through most of today before george arrived (he showed up on time, and during my friend’s wedding) and I’ve only had very minor cramps since his arrival!
I haven’t even needed any medication. It’s officially been a month that I’ve been on the Chinese herbal pills that my acupuncturist recommended, so maybe, just maybe, it’s starting to help. It might also help that I’ve been drinking tons of green tea lately, who knows.
So today was quite the success - my friend is now married, and we dropped her grandma off at the airport, and we zoomed off for a nice sushi dinner (poor grandma though, probably stranded there tonight, as her destination is snowed in! I saw the weather report when I got home. She’s quite the spry 88-year-old world traveler though, so I’m sure she’s 1. got a cell phone and 2. is just fine).
I’m still freezing, and tonight is supposed to be the coldest night so far this year, which doesn’t help my PMS/menstrual hormonal body temp whack. It’s currently 44F (about 6C) outside right now, and for California Bay Area people, that’s pretty cold. ;)
I hope tomorrow is still a better day and that I continue to have no pain. I’m not holding my breath, and I won’t be let down or devastated, but still, it’s always nice to hope.
