Hi there . . .
Oh ROSETTA . . . wish I could tell you it didn't but all insulin (and most of the oral diabetes drugs, too) are kind of a double-edged sword. We need them to control the disease but they make gaining weight sooo easy and losing it sooo difficult.
I've had two days in a row at 6.2 (112) . . . would like to see it a bit lower, but at least it seems to say that eating two meals at restaurants yesterday didn't blow the BGL control; but I really have no idea about the calorie count.
To top it off, today turned into an instant replay in the eating department too -- so another day with no food tracking -- as well as the normal mall-crawl, had to take two cats to the vet. Nothing serious and everybody seems to be fine tonight (well the felines anyway).
I've got a terrible back ache (been around for a couple of weeks now) and tonight I've also got a nasty kink in my neck. Of course, this is not being helped by the article I was reading while waiting at the periodontist's office yesterday. It seems that chronic aches and pains (especially in the lwoer back) for those of us who have 'reached a certain age' may be signs of osteoporosis -- guess I'll have to discuss with my doctor. Hopefully it's just the weather and my regular osteoarthritis kicking up.
However, having said that -- we had a beautiful day today -- very late spring-like with lots of glorious sun; no wind; and a high of 21 (70) -- hard to believe it's November.
See you tomorrow, gang . . .
..hoping u all are having a great day ((
))) rosey 
it remains to be seen if he will co-operate..my dd is working full time now and cant rely on her help..anyways with the hoildays approaching and me doing things slower now i need a head start..maybe if i bribe him with "beer"" ya think it will work lol..rosetta sry u have to walk up all those stairs ..ruth hope your tests are good numbers..meowee i never noticed an appetite change in myself when i was on insulin ,does it go away after u have been on insulin for awhile? hope so for you..jeanne glad u are back..well must get busy i have a "honey do list" we will see if honey will do..have a great weekend 
BGL was awful at 3:30 this morning (7.8/140) but had calmed down to a decent 6.2/112 by lunch time. Maybe because I got up too early???? Who knows, not me. 
he tried tho..i think ill try with my dd instead..sooooooo leaving that picture in your brain for the day have a good one 
May have to up the insulin a bit because the eating has been pretty good.
