Medical Update!!

Don't be alarmed...it's just me being a smart ass! I feel a million times better right this minute. I ate an orange! A WHOLE orange...peel and all!! Well...most of it. It was almost as good as chocolate...almost. Not quite. Different scale of satisfaction. But it was amazing. It's crazy how many things you take for granted. Like just picking up an orange and eating it. I have learned to truly appreciate food.

It was a little weird last night. I ate pea soup (homemade by Husband...delicioso!) and a Grand's biscuit. Then I had some plain yogurt with maybe a dozen blueberries mixed in. I checked my BS almost 4 hours later and it was 297!!!! Holy shit!!

Husband said..."What did you eat!!"

I said..."What you made me!!"

He said...""Well, what the hell is going on!"

I replied..."How the hell do I know?" (Actually I said 'how the f**k do I know'...big surprise)

So we began to analyze the sit-che-a-shun. After a few minutes of serious thinking...'we' determined it was most likely the biscuit. Everything else was within the limits and bounds so I'm thinking it was the flour in the Grands. I looked it up on line for carb count and it's right up there. Possibly the combination of the peas (carbs) and biscuit??? I'm thinking yes. The yogurt is almost no sugar...But it was strange. An hour later it was coming down...but I have decided no white flour stuff at all for a while (even cheating!) and if I eat something like that...if...I will eat it during the day when I'll work it off. BFFMS concurs with the diagnosis. But I think she wants me to eat cake. I don't want to disappoint her. I'm that kind of a friend!!

Speaking of working it off...we moved the HUGE commercial dryer around today to duct it and I thought I was going to die. Honestly. I was seeing yellow flashing lights that I had never seen before. Possibly a bit too strenuous. I used to be so strong...mega strong...and now I am a wimp. A weak wimp. A weak starving pathetically tired wimp. I hate it. So I ate a banana and felt a little better. I won't be doing that again for a while.

That's also why I ate the orange. Remember? I can have 2 pieces of fruit a day now! And that orange revitalized me. I needed the citrus in my body.

I hope to finish up a few hats tonight. I have a ton of them to do...that craft show is creeping up on me. If I had known this was going to happen to me...and I mean the seeing thing...I would have been busier! Well...maybe. Well...no...probably not. I have stuff. It will be fine...

Husband is planning Thanksgiving dinner. You are all invited. Seriously.

I want a pie right now.

Do you realize that a year ago Husband and I were in Las Vegas? It seems like yesterday. I can't believe a whole year has passed.

I think I'll go and work on some hats while the light is still good. Might be back later.
