baby, writing, meh

So i failed my first gestational diabetes challenge and get to do another one tomorrow. This one over three hours and four pokes after a 12 hour fast. I'll be touch crabby and likely ready to vomit by then. Joy. $20 says a full, nasty diabetes diet for the rest of my pregnancy. *sighs*

I'm feeling a tad quiet and out of sorts today and have been for a few days. I really need to get back to my routine, I guess.

Have been writing muchly and am up to 20 pages on this chapter. I expect it'll be 50ish pages. I hate it when that happens but I knew it was going to. there's simply no way for me to split it and maintain the flow.  I'm even trying to be spare with my writing since I don't really need to leave any clues in this chapter. I wanted to get it done by the end of the night, but it looks like it won't be happening. I'm just too scattered. Trying though!

I'm sorry to hear about the possible diabetes - but it won't be for all that long, will it?

Good news on the writing, though. Productivity is lovely.

No, it should all be done after baby is born, but getting into good habits isn't a bad thing, especially during nursing.

The writing feels good. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed it, silly as that sounds.

Eeks. What part of the diabetes diet gives you the most trouble? Is it white sugar?

Years of crappy habits have made my body not quite as able to deal with the 50g of sugar they poured in me to see if I could handle the first glucose test. We'll see how the full challenge goes tomorrow.

You've met me, June *grins* this kind of body doesn't manage pregnancy very well.
