DD:12 The Quick & Dirty

Bridget Jones’s Update of Day 12: BMI: Did not get a chance to weigh myself this morning to calculate BMI properly. Important to weigh same time of day, so if I posted a number it’ll be a guesstimate and pretty much defeats the purpose to the entry. Activity Level: Day off. Meditation: None. Not happy about it. Brief Observations: Ok, these night chills are really getting annoying. I wish they’d go one way (sickness) or go away. Also now exhibiting monstrous snoring episodes while asleep. I get those if I’m super tired or pregnant. I’ll go with the former, as the latter means it’s the second Immaculate conception, and we all best go to church and get ready… Either way the Husband is getting no sleep. Poor kid.

I’m making this brief. To the point. Like Dirty Harry. Just Dirty Harriet-style.

I made it through the Daisy meeting just fine. What I did find out is this:

1. Your average 6 year old little girl is both older and younger than you think;

2. We don’t pay the teachers and caregivers of our children near enough.

With 10 little girls, 1 harbor master, 2 bottles of juice, 1 dozen Duncan Hines electric blue frosted and goldfish bejeweled cupcakes, kits for making your own candy necklaces and another, rather cool, Mom in attendance, I still felt like I was the Mom pretending to be one of those totally together Moms I went to Daisies (then it was called Mini-Scouts.) And I also believe some of the little Daisies that attended, were in fact, a 50 year-old social-commentators in little-girl drag. I have my suspicions. Will keep you posted.

So, these night chills are freaking me out. I think it has to do with Clean Detox, though 99% of what I’ve read says I should be having night sweats. It hasn’t turned into anything else, like a cold or flu. I’ve even consulted with online menopausal sites, with no success (which might be good thing.) I guess with any detox, from coffee to heroin to just plain living in a toxic world, can come in all shapes and forms. Some people have freaky Snakes-on-a-plane dreams, others may have headaches, night sweats or, like moi, just have the chills.
Whatever I hope it changes soon.

Just chillin’,
