I did well with my grocery shopping yesterday. We took a trip to Yarra Natural Foods where we stocked up on fresh fruit and vegies, some Asian condiments, apple cider vineger and biodynamic meat.  I also grabbed a nut mix which I plan on keeping in the office for when my blood sugar levels drop.

They dropped at around 5.00pm yesterday and boy, did the girls cop it.  As my blood sugars dropped, my mood went from calm to raging Mum on the warpath.  By the time I had finished yelling, not a single item was out of place in their rooms. It may have had something to do with DM having a quiet word in their ear as he got home from work and walked straight into the maelstrom.  He suggested that we got out for tea, to a Chinese restaurant.  I suggested homemade Chinese was a better option.  So we threw together a chicken and vegetable stir-fry that turned into a delicious spicy soup.  The girls were happy, I was happy and guilt free and most importantly, DM was full.  And to top off the healthy meal, I had not a single drop of alcohol,nor any sweets.  I felt good.

Unfortunately, my ears are completely blocked at the moment and I can only hear when someone is talking directly at me, and not when I’m chewing.  I have a doctors’ appointment, but not until Monday.  Hopefully, they will clear by themselves before then, as the cotton wool feeling and constant ringing is starting to drive me a little nuts.

Also, the rash flared up on the left side of my groin, and the itching nearly drove me insane.  I think that is because I had 2 beers on Tuesday.  I am yet to cut out all yeast products to see if that helps.  I think it needs to be sooner rather than later.
