Shock Treatment/Shokkihoitoa

The collage is made of pictures from two different morning swims this week. After our dock was removed we've been making a trek to our neighbor's boat house where the water isn't quite as shallow as at our own shore front. Less slippery rocks, too.

I woke up with a bad migraine this morning, which is always yucky, but this week just horrible timing. There's much to organize, clean and pack!

Anyway, since a gallon a few cups of coffee, breakfast and meds weren't enough to get me going this morning, I had to resort to shock treatment.

Which is swimming. (Let's not mention how I still have been dipping in every morning - I need shock treatment on a daily basis???)

Mr. D came with me. And since my first dip actually helped me feel better, I ended up going four times this morning. And diving in - I usually don't get my hair wet. Crazy. But I do feel better!

A cure for migraines??



Here's Mr. D taking a quick dip (the video is only 9 seconds long. You can view it larger by clicking on the arrows on bottom right corner). Folks - that is cold water!

Shock treatment!

Now back to work!

Heräsin kamalaan migreeniin tänä aamuna, ja kun lääkkeet, kahvi ja aamupala eivät auttaneet, piti turvautua shokkihoitoon: kävin uimassa tänä aamuna, ja koska se auttoi, menin kolme kertaa uudestaan, jopa kastellen koko pääni - ja nyt on parempi olo! Mr. D tuli mukaan taas, ja kollaasin kuvat ovatkin kahdelta eri aamulta. Videossa Mr. D pulahtaa uimaan pikaisesti. (Videon saa isommaksi klikkaamalla nuolia oikeassa alakulmassa.) Nyt takaisin pakkaamaan ja siivoamaan!
