the_rckToday is day four of the headache. Today, I tried anaprox and more naratriptan (which at least seems to take the edge off). I also used honey instead of stevia in my coffee just in case it's the stevia. I don't think it is (the onset isn't right) but just in case.
We survived the talent show. There were three renditions of "Let It Go." The first was by a very cute kindergartner who sang without accompaniment. She actually acted out Elsa's movements, including dropping her cape and unbraiding her hair. The second rendition was a trio of girls. I'm not sure what grade they were in. The third version was two fifth grade girls who did gymnastics while the song played.
Cordelia's duet was the thirteenth number out of fifteen or sixteen acts. I don't think the song she and her friend chose really played to their strengths as singers. They've both got nice voices, but they sounded rushed and a bit ragged. They sang "Replay," the song performed by Zendaiya.
The principal and a couple of teachers did two numbers at the end. The finale was them calling all the kids in the audience up on stage with them to dance. The kids really seemed to enjoy that.
Cordelia commented afterward that there weren't any boys in the show (that's not quite right-- There was one in a family number where they all pretended to be Jedi). Last year, there was one boy. The talent show seems to be a girl thing.
Scott's sister and her daughter came to the show. All four of us sat at the lunch table that was out in the back of the room. It wasn't particularly comfortable, but we were lucky to have a place to sit. There weren't enough chairs.
Scott thinks he got everything on video. I'm not sure why he cared about all of it. Most likely, the only bit we'll do anything with is Cordelia's duet. That will go up on YouTube for the grandparents.
We talked a bit with Cordelia's friend's parents. They're pretty definite that they want their daughter at the elementary school come fall. They think it will be academically more rigorous and provide the kids with a better grounding than the middle school will. They said that all the things that make their daughter want to go to the middle school have to do with having fun.
There's going to be another informational session next week, and they're planning to go and to take their daughter. Scott's thinking about going and taking Cordelia. I'm not sure that would help. I'm not sure it wouldn't, but I'm not sure it would.

Date: 2014-03-20 03:23 pm (UTC)I'm doing okay so far today. Something I did seems to have helped. We'll see what happens tomorrow. That'll be the real test-- Whether or not I have a headache when I wake up tomorrow.
I am a little concerned because I'm almost out of naratriptan. My insurance will only cover nine tablets at a pop, and I have no refills left. I've sent a message to my doctor, but who knows when she'll get around to calling it in.
