Well ok. George is showing signs of impending do0m. I’ve had very minor cramping today and yesterday. Food cravings, especially for sugar, have been out of control.

I swear, I never thought I’d say this, but thank gods for Sucralose, although it has such a NASTY aftertaste and leaves me chugging water, it does the trick for a sugar fix. I’m sure one day soon, we’ll realise it’s as carcinogenic as Aspartame is purported to be.

Yesterday and today I have been all kinds of ragey, too. Like, seriously wanting to trash-the-house-and-scream-like-a-cave-woman type rage.

My mid and lower back has been really sore the past two days as well. I have to take time repeatedly to stretch, otherwise the pain is unbearable. But I haven’t taken any medication yet.

There’s also the hormonal core temperature wackiness going on, too. Yesterday, I went to bed in full on winter pajamas and was shivering. Today, I woke up freezing, then within an hour I had to turn on all the fans in the house. Then at the bank, while standing in line, I had a bonified hot flash, which left my face blotchy and stinging for over an hour.

But even with all that, I still haven’t had the pre-george pain I usually have by now. Let’s hope this month is easier on me.
