If that sounds like a horror movie title, well it’s appropriate. Because yesterday I felt like I was in the worst horror movie ever created.

I won’t bore (or disgust) you with the gory details of my troubled digestive system but long story short: I had a gall bladder attack.

It was hands-down the most excruciating pain I’ve ever experienced in my entire life. I couldn’t walk. I couldn’t talk. I could barely move. The pangs were so sharp it literally took my breath away. I have had friends who’ve experienced this and who are also mothers tell me that the gall bladder pain is actually worse than childbirth! So that should give you an idea! LOL!

Anyway I have an appointment for an ultrasound in a few weeks so I guess that will determine if I have stones or not, and from there it’s a matter of whether surgery is necessary or not. So we’ll see what happens . . . I’m supposed to be on a liquid diet for 24 hours to give my gall bladder a break but that went out the window, oh, about 30 minutes after I got home from the doctor! I have reactive hypoglycemia so not eating is really not an option for me. I’m trying really hard not to eat the protein rich foods I normally do (like eggs, nuts, cheese, meats) since they are what cause attacks but eating carbs all day has sent my blood sugar on a roller coaster and I have been in a complete brain fog all day. Really useful mindframe to be in when you are trying to write product descriptions for your grand opening in TWO DAYS or trying to write a cover letter for a job application you have to hand in TOMORROW!

Don’t you just love how life throws these things at you at the WORST possible time!? Like I don’t have enough on my plate right now!?

Ugh . . .sorry for the rant but I just had to get that out of my system. Low blood sugar leaves me in an irate, restless, moody state and I’m all alone in the apartment so I have no one else to take it out on LOL!

Here’s hoping I’ll be back in a few days in a much better mood! Cuz there’s a party going on Wednesday I do NOT intend to miss out on! I hope you’ll join me at ScrapbookGraphics for my debut! There’s a little something in it for you if you do

In fact, the celebration has already begun! Fashion Week has been launched! Head on over to the Studio Matters blog to read all about the fun activities we’ll be having all week! The two highlights are the product debuts on Wednesday, and a chat on Friday night where Berna and I will both be giving away free stuff! I hope to see you there! I promise to check my cranky pants at the door
