Soft and Fluffy....

....NOT!
Awful day - migraine from hell, all the worse as it came on whilst my friend was here. I did manage to talk to her for about an hour and find some books and old lessons for her and talk through how I used to structure the timetable and the activities re subjects and lessons. I also learnt just how shockingly the class has been running and how little teaching has actually even been attempted. I knew this was likely to happen and it was the reason I finally resigned.They were moving  me to another class the next academic year despite my objections, and intended to fill my class internally, and I knew there was no-one in the school with enough special education experience let alone specialism in teaching children with profound and multiple learning difficulties. So her visit did bring up angry memories. Finally I felt so ill with my head I basically asked her to leave and shut the two doors behind her! I came down the stairs on my bum, crawled to the bathroom not knowing what end to put  over the toilet! Crawled my way to the sofa in the kitchen and stayed there inert until the pain and nausea subsided a bit and I could find my tablets. In the end I took 2 pink and then later 2 yellow and by 7 I was able to sit up! I did manage to text Colourful mai to do my hen duty that night before taking the yellow tablets! I went upstairs to put my electric blanket on, saw this beautiful sight so took a photo. Then I ate a banana and a brioche roll and went to bed! I didn't actually think I would sleep straight through but I did! Checking my Fitbit the next day I realised I had not been getting much deep sleep the last few days, which apparently helps physical recovery! Not sure there is much I can do about that! 
I'm not entirely sure why today of all days I should have come down with this - maybe I had overdone the tidying yesterday, maybe lack of balanced sleep, maybe stirring up memories - maybe all of the above? I'm thinking it might take me a while to get back to any semblance of normality. Crap.
