I wish I lived near you so you could train me! You make workouts seem like so much fun and not a chore, which is something working out should never be. Congratulations Gina!!!

I know you don't want to prolong it too much. That's so exciting that you're going to be the fitness instructor! If there is anyone I think would be great at that job, it's definitely you, Gina! ;) I saw you “tweet” this morning about not having to get your blood drawn because of eating breakfast, sorry!

I had to get a complete blood count as part of a bunch of migraine screenings. Maybe sure and tell them up front that you're nervous about needles. If you prefer they use one arm or the other, say so. You can also ask to lie down, which is a really good idea if you are likely to faint. I cried like a little baby chicken during the CBC. My boyfriend held my hand the whole time, which helped. I had to get an IV shortly after for my CT, and I fainted. It was terrible. I avoid needles at all costs, but sometimes you just have to do it.

And don't be affraid of the needle--i have to do blood tests every single month [courtesy of BC side-effects]--there is nothing to it. I hold on to the table with my free hand and look away when they poke me, while taking a DEEP cleansing breath. The rest is easy. :) Oh, one more thing… congrats on your teaching position–it is super awesome, one of the things on my TO DO list for this coming year.
