Next time - STUDY!!!

So I took a test last week - FAILED MISERABLY! It was my glucose test. I actually told the doctor to skip that test & jump to the 3 hour test...I knew I was going to fail (pessimist!) - but NOOOOOO - he wouldn't hear of it - instead he said "eat a piece of toast before, it'll absorb all that sugar and you'll be fine. LIES - all them!

So my number was 178. Not boarderline - but DEEEP into the jungle of sugar coma...I go in for a re-test tomorrow.

I'm going to study. or I'm going to have a 16 pound baby. Place your bets now! Any ideas as to what I can do for 3 hours while I'm sitting in the doctor's office? Should I read? Or knit booties? or bring a pilla & catch some Z's?

sudoku...i know not exciting but it can become obsessive... kills time until you go crosseyed from all the numbers AND THEN you can see everything in double vision. THAT could be entertaining !
(all the other prego chiks will have 2 bellies HA!!!)

When I had to do the 3-hour test, I took my iPod and a good book. The other folks in the waiting room wouldn't let me listen or read, but it was a good idea in theory. Gab, gab, gab. Oh, and forget the snoozing; you will be so hopped up on sugar you'll be bouncing off the walls. And since you have to do it fasting, you'll be ready to hurl from hunger. You could spend the 3 hours trying to peel the thick syrupy coating from the drink off the roof of your mouth.

I'm not helping, am I?
