Can Bloggers have sick days?

At 2:30 this morning my husband woke up our girls, packed them into the vehicle and drove to the hospital.

I had extreme pressure in my head…unlike I have ever had in my life.

sick days

After numerous medications and a night at the hospital, I got to return home. I had not had a migraine in 7 years and I hope I will not have one for at least another 7 years!

I was (am) highly medicated and very drowsy, but I did not have the option to call in sick. I’m a blogger and a mom.

So, posts may be a little late in getting up and I may be MIA from some social media sites, but I’ll be back, I’m just taking it slow.

Have you taken an unexpected day off?

Yikes. I get migraines a few times a month and they come with nausea/vomiting, dizziness, bathroom issues, siund and light sensitivity.

Oh, that sounds awful! I've had migraines for years, though never one that sent me to the ER, so I can imagine the pain. Take your time. Your blog will be here. Hugs to you.
