Chinook City

Wednesday, January 30, 2013

I love my city. It's beautiful, has lots of green space, great biking and running trails. It's pretty safe. Our water quality is amazing. Just to the west we can see the Majestic Rockies. It's one of the best places to live in Canada.

There is one thing that makes this city hard to live in. The very Chinook arch that brings us warm winds in the middle of winter, that melts the snow, dries the streets and lets joggers don shorts also brings pain.

When I first moved here 30 years ago, I noticed that I was getting more headaches...and stronger ones. Ones that caused me to go to the hospital. Headaches that made me wonder if I had a tumor. That's when I learned a not-so-well fact about this place. It has it's own Migraine Management Center.

Today's blog is short. Chinook is on its way. My head told me this last night.

This is what our weather forecast looks like this morning.

I'm grateful for Imatrix. See you on the weekend, Buffy.

    I hope you can stay well. I spent some time in the "Mistral city" and got just a tiny touch of what it is all about.

  So sorry that you suffer from terrible headaches...
I used to suffer also, but with "the change" I have experienced total relief. The hormonal change of menopause has only been wonderful for me... My doctor said that this also brought the same kind of "blessing" for his mother.
I am glad that Imatrix provides relief for you-- take care!
