Fainting

On the way home from Nauvoo Ethan and I tried to gather up a list of all the times that I have fainted and I think we have a pretty complete one.

1) When mom took out my earring in 5th grade- Winter 1998
2) Falling down the stairs at the Jackson's house- Spring 2001
3) Flipping over my handle bars on the Hiawatha bike trail- Summer 2002
4) Crashing into Ryan Adkins head at Tori Divis's house- Summer 2005
5) Crashing the snowmobile with Ethan- Winter 2009
6) Taking the wrong medicine at the Wing's house- Winter 2010
7) Drawing blood when I was pregnant with Kelsey- Fall 2011
8) Seeing Kelsey puffy lip at Nauvoo- Summer 2014

Apparently I have a problem. These are the times that I can remember. There are several times that I have been able to catch myself before it happens too. I always know when its coming. My ears ring, people sound as though they are in the distance, I get stars in my eyes, and then I go. I never know I have passed out once I go. When I wake up though, I'm always really confused because I have mini dreams and wonder why people are disturbing my sleep. I also wonder why people are huddled around me.  Its super bizarre but nothing to worry about. I get light headed super easily and I guess sometimes I just can't get it under control. Those who know me best have no sympathy for my habit :) It just gets old after a while.
