Bad Morning

Everyone's first thought it probably morning sickness, but I think I would have rather had that (hmm... well, maybe).

I got up in the morning and went through my normal morning routine... sometimes in the shower, I don't feel well (I think it's a combination of the heat & needing something to eat), and this morning was one of them. But it was worse. I decided not to squeege the shower (shhhh... don't tell Adam, I always yell at him for not doing it!), but to go lay down on the bed. So I grabbed my towel, and started heading for the door. Once I got to the doorway, my vision was going, I was grabbing the wall, looking for the light switch (which I realized was on the other side of the doorway), and my knees were starting to give-way. I knew I was going down, and I remembered in our first class, Carrie told us that if we were going to faint, to lower ourselves to the ground so that we didn't take a hard fall. So, with the help of the wall (and gravity), my arms braced my ways down to the floor.

I never "passed out" where I wasn't aware, but I laid on that floor with my eyes closed for quite some time. I eventually felt I was well enough to crawl into the bathroom, to try to get ready for work. Realizing that it's really hard to get at a lot of what I need to get ready in the morning from a baby's view (good to know what our baby could and couldn't potentially get into!), I crawled back into our room and laid on our bed.

Eventually I felt well enough to finish getting ready for the day, and got up and did just that. I sent Adam a text, telling him that I wished he would take his phone to work, so I could get a hold of him in cases like this. I was hoping he would see it when he got home from work, and realize that he really did need to start bringing it (as I've been telling him for a while).

To my suprise, he took my advice a while ago, and had been bringing it to work. He called to see if everything was alright. He wanted to make sure that I hadn't fallen hard, and I was well enough to drive to school and teach without passing out, especially while driving!

The rest of the day I took it as easy as I could, with the help of my Airliner, I taught from my desk chair, and avoided going down and back up to my 3rd floor classroom as much as possible. And, I have felt fine since.
