this & that

a few interesting things...
i am going to get acrylic coats put back on. all my nails have already broken off, and my manicure is gone. i'll accept it; my nails looks better "fake," and i would rather pay to make them pretty all the time. :)

i had fun up north all weekend bird hunting with dad. it was very warm (upper 60's) so not the best for hunting, but great in general. we also went canoeing, and i did lots of studying and bonding.

yesterday i left to get back here to do some lawn work. i didn't eat much yesterday; i just wasnt hungry. anyway, i was out doing a number on the ivy on the side of the house (seek & destroy) for about an hour and a half. then the neighbor next door, nikki, came to her fence & we were chatting. all of a sudden i felt bad; i could feel my blood sugar was too low. so i was quickly trying to wrap up our convo to get inside quickly to eat some sugar, but it was too late. before i realized it, i was opening my eyes flat on the ground, and a very worried neighbor couched over me (and her 7 year old daughter, very nervous). I quickly tried to explain I was hypoglycemic, and needed sugar, pronto. so she helped/dragged me into the house where i almost passed out again, and got me candy and orange drink. after about 5 minutes i was able to sit/stand, and was much better. during that time ryan was calling me and she answered my phone & told him what was going on (he was at cadillac, on the way home from his cabin). i was fine, but just had a little episode. pretty much not the best way to get to know your neighbors, but good to know they can help revive you if need be. so, i'm fine. i haven't had a fainting spell from it in a year, but nonetheless, scared the crap of ryan and my dad, who ryan also called about it. good news: i'm fine, and made good friends with the nice neighbors. today i took over a rosebush plant i bought for them as a thank you. :)

i am so happy for fellow friends who are going through the home buying process. kayte & brody just closed on their cali home, which will be great for them, and for us next time we are our that way! also katie & louie are in the process of closing on a home in lbg, which is very exciting too. i'm glad that we are all hitting these great milestones already, and can share it with each other.
