Just Thinking

Jenna Fischer’s stuffed pepper recipe was a success. Jenna said to put them in a crock pot, but I just cooked them in the oven for an hour and it worked great. You can find the recipe by googling it – it is on Self Magazine’s website.

I’m not sure why, but last week and this week I keep having dizzy episodes. sometimes the dizzyness makes me feel nausceous, which I hate. (No, I’m not pregnant, FYI). Tonight, it was really bad. I was waiting for dinner to finish – it was almost 8, so it had been 7 and 1/2 hours since I’d eaten (didn’t really feel hungry at all this afternoon). I got up from reading a book on the couch and my head just felt like I’d been swimming. If I’d had to take a straight line test like drunk people do, I doubt I would have passed it. That scared me and I’m going to see if I can get a doctors appointment to talk out these symptoms.

I’m afraid that it may be something like pre-diabetes or something like that. How else do I explain losing so much weight? I’m still losing weight. Every time I get on the Wii Fit, it tells me I’ve lost at least another pound. I never thought that would horrify me, but it does. I also typically fall asleep pretty early. It just seems like it’s happening more often now. So, my main symptoms that I’d like to bring up are the weight loss and dizzyness.

When my mom was first exhibiting her diabetes symptoms, she was tired all the time and she would get nauceous if she hadn’t eaten.

I hope that you guys enjoyed my Jim pictures below. His dad discovered a bunch of pictures that we’d never seen before and we only looked at a few stacks, (there’s still a whole box left). These were just a few of the jewels that I found. I love his smiling face. His dad said he was a really smiley, really hungry kid. The first photo with his belly coming out over his pants exhibits this well, (along with his happy grin). I also love the picture where he’s sticking his fingers in another girls mouth. And the one where he is scrunching his face while being a ring bearer. I love them all.

He touches my heart in so many ways.
