Huh.

Posted on by

If you had held a gun to my head and asked me if I took my hat and gloves with me when I left the office, I would have said yes.  And you would have shot me for lying.

When I got in this morning, there they were, on my desk.  Huh.

In other interesting news, I received an email today from the assistant to the PA of a CEO.  Since I am the PA to a CEO I asked if I could have an assistant.  I was told no.  Mean bosses.

In other other interesting news, the hypos are getting very old.  But do give me an excuse to eat a bit more than usual!

Saw Endo Today

Insulin being increased, cuz my morning numbers are a bit high.  That was about it.

Had my first hypo at work today.  That was fun.  I keep juice in the fridge there, so I was fine in a few minutes.

And I lost my favorite hat and my gloves today!  No idea when or where.  I am so bummed!  And its frickin’ freezing!

First Day Back To Work

and it was okay.  I was nauseaous pretty much all day, which was less than fun, but I made it through without hurling, which is fab!

Totally exhausted and probably heading to bed around 9!

I think I can make it through the next two weeks and then I’m on holiday for the following two weeks!

Gotta love the end of the year!

In other news PSA.

So I Now Wear

on my right wrist one of these.  It has my name, that I have diabetes and that I take insulin.  It says all that so that if I am in an accident, or found unconscious somewhere, the EMTs will know to check my blood sugar and such.

I fought against getting one for ages.  But considering I am going low at least a few times a week, and that I am heading back to work tomorrow, I decided it was better to be safe than sorry.

Its not horribly unattractive, although hardly fashion jewlery.  And it may save my life one day.

This Morning Has Been Less Than Pleasant

Woke up too early.  Felt fine.  Ate breakfast.  Thought I was going to hurl.  Went back to bed.  Slept 2 more hours.  Had snack.  Felt like I was going to hurl.  Went back to bed.  Slept for another hour.

I feel okay now, but I am wondering how I will feel after lunch.

And I think we will need to name this child Olive Pickle, after the two things I am totally craving!!

I’m Feeling Much Better

Posted on by

Definitely going to work on Monday.

Not much going on really.  Just getting a bit bigger every day.  Went through a lot of my work clothes this week and retired them to the spare room closet for the duration.  I told them I hoped to see them again in about a year or so.  Maybe 2 years.

Looking forward to Christmas.  I am off work from the 22nd until the 5th.  Nice long break.  We’ll be in Derry for the actual Christmas holiday and then back home for New Years Eve.  Which we will spend in our usual exciting style of watching a movie.  I might even have a sip of champers.  They are now saying a glass a week is fine after the first trimester.  They will probably change their minds next week.

Pregnancy Dreams

Posted on by

I have had two now where the baby was a boy.

The one last night started out normal enough, with boy baby.  Then there was this nurse who thought there was something odd going on at the hospital so she went to speak to the head of the hospital about it, but before she could the building he was in blew up.  My brother turned out to be the guy investigating the explosion.  Which is very strange because my brother works in marketing.  Not law enforcement.  I do actually have a brother who used to work in law enforcement, but it wasn’t that brother in the dream.

My psyche is odd.

On and I’m 11 weeks today.

If There Are Any Pregnant UK Mums Who Read This…

Get thee to New Look.  Tons of maternity clothes at very reasonable prices.  I bought 3 pairs of trousers, 2 shirts, 1 dress and one pair of leggings for about £100.  Apparently there is lots of stuff on their website as well.

I also went to Top Shop, but only found 1 pair of trousers and 1 shirt there.

Now I am exhausted.  Its very tiring walking around with an extra person inside of you.

Another Day

Posted on by

Another low.  I really need to make sure I eat extra carbs if I am going to be walking a lot after breakfast.  I went to St George’s Farmers Market this morning and then to Marks & Spencer and by the time I was done in Marks I was definitely feeling woozy.  Had a whole wheat roll and half a candy bar and felt well enough to get home.

I do hate lows on the one hand.  On the other hand, I get to eat sugar when I have one!  Its sort of a double edged sword!

I’m still exhausted and a bit depressed.  Glad I have another week off work.  By the end of next week I’m almost done with the 1st trimester, so hopefully will feel better.

Have a nice weekend, everyone!
