Classes have started again at work. The first few days with students back after the summer are always a bit of an adjustment, but pretty much everyone who works in the bakery agrees, this particular batch of students is a bit rowdier than usual! Between that and the heat, I ended up super drained in the late afternoon; I may have had lunch around 1:00pm, and a delicious work-sponsored ice-cream-and-waffle treat around 2:20, but come 4:00 I was still in a low-sugar fog. It took a chef instructor from the lab next door delivering fresh french fries for me to figure out that low blood sugar was my problem, and a good handful or two got my brain working much better. Still, I was happy enough to get home and drain a Gatorade and have a sandwich, and am overall feeling much better.

That said, I've also got tomorrow off, and am looking forward to a nice, relatively quiet day before I go in to work on Thursday. I'm hoping to clear a little bit more out of my room, maybe even destash a bit more of my yarn, but even if I spend most of the day just lounging around and sleeping, I'll still count that as a win.

Low Blood Sugar

...is the devil's business. It breaks the part of us that recognizes what's wrong!

So much so!

I'm feeling so much more energetic and so much less brain foggy after adding some more quick carbs to my diet, I'm wondering if it hasn't been part of a bigger trend for longer than I thought. I'll have to keep an eye on things, see if I need to make sure my work beverages are extra sugary or not.
