Oy vey...

So I had a baby appointment today... News not so good :(

My blood pressure is higher than it should be and I'm not getting enough rest. Not really surprising considering I work retail and I have a huge Head Office visit next week. We are going to test again in 2 weeks but if things don't change I may be going on sick leave before the Mat leave.
 
Reality is that I need to start taking better care of myself. My move to KP was not easier for me...in fact it makes my life harder. A longer commute everyday, I don't sit down as much, I do more physical work, I train more and I help more customers because its a higher volume store... I don't get it, how is that easier? Im supposed to be taking it easier there.. WTF?!

We also don't know the results of my Glucose tolerance test today. I hope it's ok. That drink tasted like Mc Donalds orange drink and I could feel the sugar pumping through my veins... It was crazy. Im pretty sure I crashed on the sugar a bit later, I needed a 3 hr nap :S

Tonight went better. I had dinner at Stellas with my wonderful cousins Jen, Jason, Jaclyn, baby Rilee and of course the Hubby. They always make me feel better after a bad day, oh and the Jets won :)  That's good too! We laughed all night and that's happy medicine for me.

  1. Hum. I just checked my blood pressure after reading this. It's normal, though.
    I can't believe how much you still work. I just quit everything because some days I am literally an invalid. I can't hardly move from the couch to the kitchen!!! I don't know how you do it. You need to take care of yourself, girl!
