It's been awhile since I have blogged. I'm a horrible blogger b/c I tend to get in these ruts of things. I go in spurts. Sorry!
Yesterday I went to bed at 630 PM. I was so tired, I had body aches and I just didn't feel that great. So I left my husband to put up food, and do dishes and put the kid to bed. I had him wake me up to tuck her in and I went back to bed. I just didn't feel well. I slept 13 hours last night. I feel much better today, yet I'm still tired.
My Blood sugars have been in the high 300's for a few weeks now. STRESS I'm sure. But also I stopped eating low carb b/c well the convenience of it wasn't that easy. Especially with Ally in the hospital.
Anyways. I'm just not feeling up to PAR these last several days. I'm not exactly sure whats going on. But I just don't feel the greatest.
I'll blog more later.

busy life...
Sorry I've been gone for awhile. My daughter ended up getting admitted to the hospital for pneumonia. We were only there one night and got to leave the next day, but it's still rough. She has officially been sick for a week today. This mama is wore out.
she's slowly getting better. We have a ton of homework to do. While we were in the hospital the "Toy cart" came around and gave her a great toy! She got 8 new princess barbies! She was ecstatic and that was the first smile we had seen since being there! I had no idea that they even did that, it was a great way to make her feel special! I'll have to donate to them.
So My blood sugars as you can imagine have been off the charts all over the place, from 60-400! I'm a worrier as it is, and when it comes to my kid I'm even worse at being worried about her all the time! especially when sick, and then sick enough to be in the hospital, made it a thousands times worse.
Let me just tell you the hospital is no fun. Her oxygen alarm went off like every 10-20 min ( no exaggeration!) so I maybe got a hour of sleep, she only slept maybe 3-4 hours herself. But she felt amazingly better after the IV's! so we got to go home and now we are just trying to get her feeling better. We do a little bit of homework everyday so it's kind of like a taste of homeschooling. ( I've been thinking about homeschooling)
But we are on the road to recovery!! This weekend she goes to her dad's. My husband and I had planned a trip to Miranda Lambert's new B&B for this weekend, I'm hoping Ally is well enough I can go without worrying the whole time. But it should be fun! I'm looking forward to some relaxation!
Til next time y'all!

STRESS = HIGH BLOOD SUGAR
Stress = High blood sugars............
Yesterday my daughter ( she's 6 ) came home from school laid on the floor and says " Mama, I feel like I've been ran over" I said "What?" She says "Yea, my whole body hurts, my head hurts, my chest hurts and my throat" I check her temp and it's 101.5, so I'm like great! I can hear her wheezing, So we decide to take her to the pediatric urgent care, Boy am I glad we didn't wait!!! She has pneumonia! She got two shots in her booty and if she's not better today then more shots and then if still not better they will admit her for IV antibiotics.... This mama is scared! I am a worrier, especially about my baby. Now I'm super worried.
I didn't sleep last night, I woke up like every hour, I just kept checking on her. The fact that her room is on the opposite side of the house didn't help matters. I really just wanted to sleep on her floor, b/c then if she woke up in respiratory distress I could hear it. I didn't, I slept in my bed with my husband, but I woke up every hour.
In the midst of all that my blood sugars have sky rocketed to the 300's again. I woke up at 2 am it was 300, took a shot( it usually works faster than pump bolus) then when i woke up at 6 I was 355! Higher than I was at 2 am! which is nuts since I took a shot and had my pump on. I checked it about 45 min ago it was 245 so it's better but it always goes up when I'm stressed!! ugh!!
So Ally woke up this morning, no fever which is good! But not feeling well at all, just laying around and still felt like she had been ran over. I gave her cough meds, ibuprofen and zofran for her nausea. About an hour later she perked up, and she's slowly going down hill again and now has a 100.1 on ibuprofen, so it looks as though we will be going to get more shots later today..... =(
So if you're the praying type, please pray for her. I really hope she gets better so she doesn't have to go in to the hospital.
Thanks!
