Concentration Lost

Embers of memories dance in my mind this morning, flashing like lightning bugs in the summer grasses causing distractions, making it impossible to focus. There is a constant annoying internal buzz that I hear, some call it white noise but it is loud, very loud for me. Perhaps it is just my auditory sensitivity that makes me acutely aware of its presence and how it distracts me.

I am deeply distracted this morning. I try to focus on my daily Bible reading and it is hard to keep that focus, which is unusual for me at least this early in the morning. So I turn to prayer and it is hard to focus on prayer. I feel agitated and ... well distracted.

The lack of concentration is probably one of the most annoying traits of my migraines. It affects my ability to study, to recall information I should know, to learn new things.

I desperately wish these migraines would go away and I could get back to work. I am bored around here and wish for some level of normalcy.
