An up and down day

Today had its ups and downs, for sure!

I was in the middle of teaching my class and waxing rhapsodic about Tolkien and The Fellowship of the Ring, when I suddenly broke out in an all-over body sweat and my hands and knees started shaking like crazy. I know what that means: low blood sugar. Which, yay me, but uh-oh. Did I pack my little bottle of apple juice in my bag like I promised my kids?? Of course not! I haven't had an LBSI (low blood sugar incident) in SUCH a long time. I sat down and held myself together long enough to get through my class. Luckily, the super sweet parent volunteer in the office today had brought in a beautiful platter of strawberries and grapes this morning. I had 6 strawberries and I felt much, MUCH better. The school administrator said I could bring in some bottles of juice and they would keep them in the office for me. Yay!

Of course, the real downside of the whole thing is that you aren't supposed to work out for 24 hours after an incident like that so that you have a chance to stabilize your blood sugar. So, no Curves, no kettlebells, no boot camp dvd and no walk with the Buzz Boy. :o( I did have a lovely nap, though, after I got home and ate something substantial.

After my success at WalMart, I was all geared up to have a uber-healthy dinner. Sadly, Hubby wanted to enjoy the pizza that the girls were having and I just wasn't up to making dinner for just me. Weirdly, I ended up below my calorie goal for the day.

Hubby is taking Bean and two of her friends to King's Dominion tomorrow (and my ST: Enterprise, Season 4, Disc 1 arrived from Netflix with a crack in it), so I'll have loads of time to do all the workouts I was supposed to do today.
