Finally a day of relaxation, I haven't been exercising too much these last few days but I figure I'm busy enough and on the go enough to make up for that somewhat, I finally lost almost all the weight I wanted to lose, another 8 lbs to go and I will be very happy!

The other day I had a bit of a mishap..., I was out shopping and alone, and suddenly while standing in line my hands seems to go all wrong (this is my first sign of low sugar, my hands stop working right).  I keep a stash of glucose tablets everywhere, in my purse, in the car, in the house, so I was already paying and decided to finish up and head out to the car, knowing I was unable to drive but at least unload my stuff and get a glucose tablet, the one I had with me was in a plasic cylinder thing and as luck would have it, one had turned sideways and it was jammed, by now my hands have pretty much stopped doing what my brain is telling them to do and I somehow had to get this tablet out.  I banged it on the seat on the console everywhere and still no luck.

As I keep attempting, my fogged brain is beginning to panic, I am alone, I have the car which I can not drive, I forgot my cell and the tablets are right here and yet I can not get one into my mouth. 

Finally the tablet begins to give way and with fumbling hands I am able to find some relief in the fact that it is coming out, by now this tablet is like gold to me, eventually it works free and I am able to take it, now I don't know about anyone else, but even as my sugar rises, I still tend to feel quit sick for a long time after, but the dexterity slowly began returning to my hands, my brain soon started to unfog and the passing out feeling is beginning to subside, now all I have to do is wait before I can start driving again...

I was totally feeling panicked during this episode and realized how despite all my planning and being prepared, things can still go terribly wrong.

I have now bought the ones that are in foil, no more plastic cylinders for me!
