Cough Squee Cough Blow Nose

Here I sit on a Sunday...

I still feel like I've been hit by a mack truck or two... but I'm better now then I was earlier I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital... not only was my heart racing but my blood sugar shot way up... (way up for me that is)... I was dizzy, I felt nauseous, every time I laid down to sleep my whole body started vibrating... last time I felt like that was in '09 and that time I did end up in the hospital for a few hours...

When I was feeling out of it I decided to check my blood sugar level...and it was 8.8 which is actually the higher part of the normal zone... however... my normal levels have been between 3.7 to 5.7... so at least I knew part of the issue though I didn't know what had caused it to shoot up like that because I'd only had some toast... so after trying a last desperate measure (which worked...if you really want to know what worked I might just tell ya)  I sat for a few minutes and took a few deep breaths and when The Man came in and asked if I still wanted to go to the hospital and I explained that I think I felt alright and that I wanted to get up and have a short shower and have a little bit to eat...

I got up and checked my blood sugar level again and this time it was at 5.4... it dropped from the 8.8 in about an hour...I checked again after (2 hrs) having some spaghetti (without any sauce) and it was back up to 7.7 again... I went through a period of a couple of hours where I felt really tired...

It's been a crazy day... it makes me happy that the Man and the Boys haven't left for up north yet... they were supposed to leave on Saturday... and then again they were supposed to leave today... if The Man's mother calls again in the morning to say she's not coming I'm just going to take the Manchild back to his dads...and they all just won't be going up this year...

On the flip side to the craziness of today was the sadness from last night... I mentioned in a previous post that Moe (our ferret) had been really sick... last night the strong little guy passed away... he tried so hard as did we... I realized that he was going to pass away when we could no longer to eat drink or take any sort of meds on Friday... I held him up to the last few moments when he started to seize non-stop... I'm really going to miss the little guy he was fun and so very lovable...
I strongly suspect that though we were told he was in good health that he wasn't...

so again... really kind of glad that the Man and boys didn't leave yet...

I'm really tired of wiping and blowing my nose...

5 days until Red Spiral...Squee!*coughcough*
13 days Reno... Squee! *blowingofnose and cough*

I will feel better by Wednesday!!
