Stormy Times
This week the super storm "Sandy" that hit the US & today "Nilam" that hit Tamil Nadu in India were in the news for most days. I can't imagine how horrific it would be to be in midst of such storms. My prayers are with everyone affected by them.
This week I did travel a bit, after the adventures of Thursday I was tired for about a day or two. But still managed to go for outings with friends. Past couple of weeks, I was trying to lay low, since I often get very tired after going for such outings. But this last week, just couldn't avoid all those invitations. I drove a lot and really felt great after the drive. I also had to visit my native place last week, but I had to cancel out. Since I was not feeling super confident last week about travelling across states and doing all that flying around and road journeys. Most of my family was present for the occasion, guess will have to wait for it till next year. Have another dinner invitation on Saturday, trying my best to somehow dodge this invite, but probably will have to make this one last trip.
All the travelling and outings has taken a toll on me. My diet plans have flew out of the window. Since last 2 days was feeling very uneasy and it eventually led to that panic attack kind of feeling. Most times of the day I feel pretty ok to do everyday stuff. But when I get into that "panic attack" mode (don't have better words to describe it), I feel very weak and need to eat and drink a lot to get out of it. Maybe it is something to do with my eating habits or I don't know. Need to ask my doc about it. Mostly the doctors don't reply to such queries and just tell me that things will be fine after the change of dosage.
Been exercising pretty regularly, and do need to see that physio therapist asap now. There is no way to check muscle wasting, since my hands,legs are pretty thin since my DM diagnosis. But my weight reduced by about 4 kgs. Will need to keep a check on the weighing scale. I rarely ever check my weight, since its usually constant.
So last week saw couple of movies - Chakravyuh & Chittagong. Chakravyuh was pretty bad - very weak storyline and horrible acting by couple people. It was based on the naxalite movement in India which according to our PM is the no 1 threat to the country. Expected a sensitive movie, but turned out to be more of a action flick with a weak plot & horrible songs. Chittagong was a sincere effort and I liked it, the story is pretty much true to life. So next movie to watch out is of course Skyfall as James Bond returns to duty !
Ciao n Peace.
