I ONLY HAVE 8 DAYS LEFT IN CALIFORNIA!!! WHOOOOHOOOOOOO!! AND WE START PACKING TOMORROW!!!

Well, still no period for me. But I've gone back on all my cycles and September was a freak event, so I have no clue when I'm due for my period. And I think I'm coming down sick, oh fun; you know stuffy nose, coughing, etc. Last night we learned that my DH will be graduating from Coast Guard Electronics Engineering A-School next Thursday with honors!! I'm so proud of him :) So we went out to eat to kind of celebrate. I wasn't feeling great before we left for the restaurant; but when we got to the car it all hit me at once; the dizziness, lightheadedness, shaking; I almost lost it. But fortunately, I was able to keep myself under control until we got to the restaurant. I felt better after having a few sips of Sprite and some food; so I'm thinking that it was blood sugar related or something.

So there is my post to help get us to 80,000! :)

Thx, Ashley. Congrats to your dh! Good luck on the packing. I detest moving, but you probably are an expert by now. Please take care. If you have more of these episodes, have your blood sugar checked. As a diabetic, I have a hard time distinguishing between the beginning of a panic attack or a low blood sugar(hypoglycemic) episode. They are very much the same. (((hugs))) jan

thanx jan. I was hoping I wouldn't need to be tested for diabetes or anything of the sort for a long time. My father and grandfather developed diabetes, my dad in his 40's and my grandfather in his 70's. No women in the family have it, and I hope I'm not the exception. I can't stand having my sugar checked, my dad used to check mine after he'd check his, and my knees would buckle lol.
