The wall....or how I hit it and couldn't get back up...
I worked on documentation last night and laundry...I got a good ways done on the documentation...laundry not so much. I was so tired that I went to bed at 10pm or so. I left Ivan and Shanda and steffan chatting away.
I slept like the dead and slept well until the alarm went off. Got up, got family breakfast at joe's and then we packed up for war practice. I was a bit worried about the arm but I made it out and it worked great. We did some open fields and then moved into drills which were fun. Oslaf and I rocked it out as a good shield team. Then we did a gate battle and we pushed through...I got tangled up on the side of things and then pushed to a boundary and killed by a few stout shots. I sat for a bit while the battle raged on and then realized that tears were falling down my face and my body was rebelling against me. I'd had this happen before (at pennsic) and I knew my blood sugar was crashing and I'd need to quick eat something to recover. I got off the field, and
desert_moloch got me my tangerine and a pbj sammie. I slowly ate them and a big cup of cold water and waited for the world to stop being weird in my vision and to stop feeling woozy. It didn't. I drank more water and I really didn't feel better. I guess my color wasn't good either and after getting to my feet and stumbling onto the field for a field court I was sure that I was done. I had to slump against ivan to make sure the world wasn't spinning.
I got out of armor and hit the bathrooms and then took a nap...hit the bathroom again and took another nap. Got a snack and then things were finishing up. I got another pbj sammie and felt better but not great. We got things torn down and then I was woozy again. Sighs. We all got home and then it was time to head to a quiet small dinner at Sweet Tomatoes. Had a nice meal there...their bean soup is good. We're home now and I'm falling asleep. Shower will be soon and then bed.
I'm pretty sure I'm in the stage of changing how my body does things and its really not sure what it wants to do...I had enough carbs (I thought I did) but I think that I didn't have enough carbs last night or in the morning to carry me through...course maybe I should have had a sammi before...I don't know but what ever I did it didn't work. I just don't have the energy right now and I'm sure that in another week things will be fine and I won't have to worry about it but its that transition period where the body is having to do things differently. But now I'm very, very worn out and the arm is stiff but working..we'll see how I am tomorrow.
