Gulp!

Today is the day that I have the Glucola test test to find out if I possibly have pregnancy-related diabetes. Of course this test won’t tell me if I’ve got diabetes, but it will ‘evaluate the risk’ for diabetes.

I’m banking on a ‘normal’ test, but I’ve got to spend the day avoiding foods with sugar, fruit juices or dried fruits, which should be easy. Drinking the orange drink should be an adventure….it sure doesn’t look like chocolate milk and I’m going to guess that it doesn’t taste like it either.

Yuck.

I’m on Fire

A few weeks ago Barry and I caught the end of the Kennedy Center Honors and Bruce Springsteen was getting honored.

Ben Harper and Jennifer Nettles sang “I’m on Fire” and I can not get enough of this version. It is so beautiful. I have found myself just listening to the audio over and over again each morning while I putter around my classroom.

Give it a listen.

Losing My Marbles

Three meetings in one month.

Three meetings!

I have missed three different meetings in one month.

I am not a flake, I am a flake, I am not a flake.

This has never happened. Ever.

Where are my marbles?

Calendar(s!) apparently aren’t enough to remind me where to be.

Sticky notes do nothing.

Verbal reminders – HA!

Three meetings?

Will you physically come escort me for the the meeting you have scheduled with me?

Otherwise it just might be four.
