December 2008 Headache Blog Carnival Is Up

by

winter carnivalA blog carnival is the fancy name for a group of links to various blogs that rotate around a particular topic. In this case, it’s life for people with chronic headaches and migraines. Today, the Headache and Migraine Blog Carnival turns one year old. (Huzzah.) I don’t recommend blowing those little party horns because they are not alot of fun when you have a headache.

Much thanks, as always, to Diana Lee from Somebody Heal Me for hosting this month’s Blog Carnival. She’s the unofficial official who started the Headache and Migraine Blog Carnival last December.

I sent several submissions to this months blog carnival and none of them made the cut, so I guess the qualifications bar has really raised. (Just a joke, folks). But, fear not, this month’s is still a good read. This month’s topic is “Maximizing Your Enjoyment of the Holiday Season.”

Here are my noteables from this month. As always, these are just my opinions and by not mentioning a particular post, it’s not a slam againt the writing in any way.

  • The best title award goes to ‘Twas the Night before Nut Cakes by Parin Stormlaughter at Sparkling with Crystals. It’s a poem parody and a recipie, showing that everyone with chronic pain can benefir from a laugh and fattening food.
  • Megan Oltman delivers once again with Holidays Don’t Have to Hurt Your Head. Especially if you finally realize that not having a perfect holiday is not the end of the world. You can also get rid of the stress that holidays bring by just not celebrating them. Quite honestly, what’s the point of holidays? Most people don’t even get the day off from work anymore. You can go through more work on Christmas?Yule?Whatever than you do at your job. If you can’t give up the Decmeber holidays, then read this.
  • Getting the Most Out of the Holidays Despite Migraines for some reason made my browser crash. Is anyone else having problems trying to get onto My Migraine Connection? I have read things by Teri Roberts before and she is a very good writer and would love to view her latest offering.

Hope this helps. Go light on the eggnog.
