Feeling the stress a bit

I was doing well this morning.  Slept in till about 8 and then got up and got ready to go to the grocery store.  I always filled overwhelmed there but today it was early only about 10 and it was already getting crowded in the store.  I hate it because people stop anywhere and just stand there and block the way. Usually why I go shopping early.  The Packer’s play tonight and so alot of people are out shopping for that.  It will only be broadcast on satalite t.v.  Not sure I will watch it since it’s raining right now and supposed to freeze.  We will see how it goes tonight.  Anyway back to shopping…I was walking thru the store and ran into my mom.  Not literally but by the looks of her it looked like it.  Her whole face was bruised.  I asked her what happened and she said she fell flat on her face on the sidewalk.  This has me troubled because she has said this before.  I have known of black eyes and cuts before.  Her brother who is about 10 years older than her was just diagnoised with Alzheimers Stage 2.  It worries me because it’s usually a sign when they fall alot.  Hers has not been alot but a couple of times in the last couple of years. 

So now I am stressed out about that.  It’s hard to see someone you know look like that.  Let alone she went out in public.  No makeup… nothing.  I surely would have worn dark glasses or something to cover my face.  I would never have gone out in public.  Her face still looked a little swollen and this happened five days ago.  I am sure she didn’t go to the Dr. either.  Not sure what that is all about and I talked to my brother yesterday and he didn’t mention anything.  So he must not know either.  Well they all will find out on Saturday because we are having X-mas that day at my sister’s house. 

Anyway so I am feeling a bit blue and dizzy.  Seems to be the pattern lately.  Not sure what the deal is, if it’s Christmas stress or what.  Gonna have to go get checked out at the Dr. or something.  Sugar really seems to make me sick and I even asked the Dr. last time I was there about my blood sugar.  I can feel it crashing at times and need to eat right then.  She said we did do a blood sugar on you last time and it was good.  I think it depends on what I eat that makes it crash.  I am not a big sweets person so it doesn’t happen alot.  But when I do want something sweet sometimes I pay.

Anyway, still no snow in Wisconsin.  Today it’s raining out really hard and is supposed to freeze and turn into snow tonight.  Wonderful!  I have a few errands to run tomorrow.  Hopefully we can get out.  I just want to pick up a couple of stocking stuffers for the boys.  I have to work all day Saturday and as soon as I get home we will go.  So hoping things go smoothly the next few days.  I wish they would close a little early on Saturday.  Of course if our weather gets nasty today they may close early so that would make tomorrow and Saturday busy. I am hoping it’s busy so the time goes by fast.  I will get as much done as possible and I open on the 26th.  So if I don’t get it done SAturday it will have to wait until Tuesday. 

Well gotta run fold clothes and make some strawberry slush and peanutbutter balls.  Happy Holidays.
