Today I am just not feeling well. I am not sure what it is, but I have a low level headache, am a bit shakey and my stomache feels a bit sour.
I drank about half a gallon of pure water today and about half of that in sun tea. I wonder if I drank too much? I stayed inside until evening so I didn't get over-heated.
I hope I am just tired!

Alee, I hope you feel better! I haven't been feeling very well today either. I'm also feeling a sour stomach and have had a headache off and on for a week. I need to get my blood pressure checked out...I'm sure it's still high. I just don't want to take medicine...ugh...but I guess I have no choice!
Hope tomorrow is a better day for you! Goodnight!

| Alee - I wondered where you were today - sorry to hear you're not feeling well. I'll bet it's heat related. |

| Just read Rachel's post I had a low grade headache every morning until I got onto blood pressure medication. I still get them occassionally - you're pretty young for high blood pressure Alee, but if it keeps up, wouldn't hurt to get it checked. |

Hi ladies!
I am feeling better. I think I had too much tea or something. I am still tired, but I think that is a side effect of having had the headache all day.
Thanks for being concerned about my blood pressure- Actually I have low blood pressure. Even through my pregnancy I had perfect blood pressure. A few years ago the doctors put me on a medicine to help me mellow out when I was working 2 jobs plus going to school full time- I was having problems with my hands shaking so bad that I couldn't write. Anyway- this medicine also lowers your blood pressure so they told me to eat a high sodium diet and eat a lot of chips or something if I started feeling faint!!

I am glad you are feeling better tonight! TAke care of yourself!!!!! I used to drink alot of ice tea years ago when I waitressed in hot weather and I would feel like that so I bet that IS what caused that feeling. I was told one time on one of those days that I couldn't give blood (at a blood drive I went to ) since the iron was too low and they said that drinking alot of ice tea all day could cause THAT too,so if I knew I was going to give blood to eat high iron things like broccoli. Maybe your iron was low? I don't drink it any more...just lots of water...be careful!

Oh, Alee. Do you need a few days to be sure you are okay? You really don't want to over do in this heat. We could get berries in a few days when it cools off if you like. I want you to take the best care of yourself for dear Nora.
We make a difference. |

How are you doing this morning, Alee? Feeling better? This heat can do a number on your well being, so be careful! I came down with a summer cold on Wed. Felt pretty crummy for a couple of days, but am now on the mend. It's so hot & humid here though that I can't do much outside yet because I feel like there's a brick on my chest. I just need a couple more days to be back to myself!
Take care!!

| Yep, I bet it was the tea. Too much caffine and all that sloshing around in your tummy can do that you know! Take care, cindy |

I am feeling much better ladies- thank you! I think I am going to go back to just drinking water, no more lemonade or iced tea unless just as a special treat. I was trying to go the "flavored" route so I would drink more- but I think I drank more when it was just regular plain water anyway.
It was good to get out and walk around today. I don't know if this sounds silly- but I think I felt bad yesterday because my body was trying flush some toxins out and the tea wasn't helping.
Maybe my iron was low! I had red meat for dinner and after dinner is when I started feeling better.
I am glad it was just a passing thing and didn't stay.
