that I feel like crap. My neuro's nurse thought it a bit nuts when I added that I couldn't do much about it until after the holiday weekend. Sales for our yard "extravaganza" are usually well over 3K and we depend on that.
Yesterday I was unable to do anything due to severe GI symptoms. I was so dehydrated that when I moved my heart pounded and of course I would have to rush to the restroom. I am so tired of being "sick." And after only have liquids, most of which were sugar-free yesterday, my AM fasting blood sugar was 153. I cannot reel that in.
Getting through this week will be a blessing. Leo doesn't know how we are going to pull it off without me killing myself and wishes he had not taken vacation. Our regular customers would be disappointed without our sale. I would be disappointed not to catch up with some of them. Many are from Illinois and through the years we have bonded. Not too mention that I have stocked up on some antiques that I would normally not sell online, but I know my yard sale folks will want.
Yard sale customers are all about country or steampunk or shabby chic. No fine Victorian items for them. I got little done yesterday, so today I will be marking like a fool. If its not marked, its $1. I'll have to post photos of the sale.
Sorry for the whining. I cannot seem to control that lately. Need to email my GP back as the new diabetes med was not at the pharmacy when I checked Saturday. Lots to do. Little time. And I did slow down. I did not go to church or voter's meeting yesterday. I didn't do anything yesterday except watch Gray play with his water table for a bit. Hugs to all.

Debbie, Sorry you still aren\'t feeling well. You have had a rough go of it. You do so much and I still don\'t know how you do it. If I did all that you do I would probably be in the hospital. Your yard extravaganza sounds like it would be fun to go to. Is this at your home? Please rest as much as you can.

Sorry to hear you are feeling poorly. How I wish I were closer. I\'d love to lend you a hand. Yard sales are a passion of mine.
I hope you feel better soon.

luv and hugs
