I failed...

the OGTT that is...! I failed big time at my 1 hours OGTT (glucose test). And I was so surprise!

For those of you who doesn't know what OGTT is, it's basically a glucose test to determine whether or not you have gastational diabetes. The normal range of an hour test is b/w 60 - 130 ml/db. Mine was 153!!! That would be a big fat F in normal score!!!

Once you failed the 1 hour test, they usually put you through the 3 hours test. This test may varries from lab to lab, but in general you go in for 3 hours. You need to fast for 8-12 hours, though. The draw your blood first when you go in before you drink the glucola (it taste like a bad Gatorade). Then every hour after you drank the drink, they'll draw blood from you, 3 times more. So, in total you will have 4 blood drawing session! By the end of the day you won't have blood left and you can't feel your arms anymore!!!!

That's how I spend my Friday afternoon!!! Doesn't that sound like fun?!

Did you pass your OGTT test? Let us know your story!

Happy Thursday...or not...!

So, I woke up to find that my IPhone is not functioning properly! How FRUSTRATING is that! I use to be able to log on to my etsy account but ,today for some reason I can't! WTH!

So, I gotta make the trip to AT&T - but last time I went there, my freaking IPhone worked just fine when the tech was there! Is like going to the dr.!!!

Anyway, don't let me ruin your day! Mostly it's because of me hormones anyway! Lately I'm a HUGE witch with a B - poor hubby!

I have my glucose test today - ugh! FXd for me that I'll pass this dang test!

Here's to Thursday!

March is Knit-a-square-athon month

I’m making March 2010 a knit-a-square-athon month. Who wanna join me?

Here’s why I wanna do this:

There are 1.4 million AIDS and abandoned orphans in the sub-Saharan area who are cold, lonely, and hungry – not just for food but also for love and warmth. By donating 8” squares is to show that someone out there cares for them, and that they are not completely forgotten.

Does that inspire you to wanna help me to help these orphans? No? Not yet?

Well then imagine this:

Imagine a shaking child with a pair of sorrow eyes stared out to the world and wonders why he is here? Why he is alone? Why did his parents left him? What did he do that they have to leave him? What will become of him? Should he have a dream? Or is his entire future lost? He wonders if tomorrow he’ll have enough food – or any food – to eat so he can get through the day. He wonders if he’ll be lucky enough to receive a blanket to wrap around him and make the cold and loneliness go away – even for just a night. Or will he just have to wait a while longer until the have enough blankets for every child there.

Now can you please help and join me for a knit-a-square-athon month? The kids need you!

You can help either by knit or crochet an 8” square and mail them to me or directly to the charity, if you don’t mind the postage. And/or you can pledge to donate money for every square you collected or made. If you choose this option, I advise to set a cut-off amount as it could get too expensive. Lastly, you can pledge to donate $1 for every square I made or collect, and the cut-off is $20 for every person. I’ll keep you updated on my regularly on how many square I’ve made and you can donate your pledged directly to knit-a-square charity, just mentioned that “The Frog and Sheep knit-athon team and your name” when you make your donation. And don’t forget to leave comment on my blog so we now how much we have collected. If you are interested and want to contribute, please leave comment on my blog http://www.thefrogandsheep.blogspot.com/ or email me at thefrogandsheep@gmail.com

Note: I’m not a representative or have any function or relationship with the knit-a-square charity. I just really felt for these orphans and want to help them, even more so as a mom-to-be. They are just the charity of my choice.

I’m counting on you all!

what a nerve wracking thing...

OK - tomorrow is the day - Big Launching Day - for me!!! And I'm totally nervous!!!

I start to doubt that I'll have a chance there at etsy...I mean, who am I kidding! There are tons of knitted babyware sellers at etsy! There is NO WAY I'll succeed!!! Or...do I? I mean I use all high quality yarn, and my stitches are great, since I've been knitting on and off since I was 10 - so about 20 years now.

Deep breath!!! Don't panic!!! And just do it!!! Someone told me to leave a negative karma before enter the etsy world...so I'll try to do just that...! :{

So, I'm calling out for all of you to help support me :) You don't have to buy my stuff to support me...just leave me an encouragement notes or a smack in my head note or whatever...so I can keep on going with this...!
