Good morning everyone!

Glad to report my husband made it home safely last night. Now we are in the big push to prepare to leave for Africa on Saturday. Nerve-wracking!

As a result of the stress, my eating and sleeping have suffered and I've put on about 4 pounds

I know I will lose this with all of the activity in Africa, so I'm not really worried.

Just nervous!

Hope all is well with you! Take care!

Dyan

Well . . . yesterday's shopping trip was a fun-filled blast . . . unfortunately so was the lunch that came first -- let's just say it contained carrot cake and too many delicious garlic bread sticks. So my BGL never did get down to those nice evening numbers yesterday. This morning -- still too high, but no higher than it usually is in the morning.

Today . . . the sun is finally shining, but it is definitely no going to be too warm out there. The afternoon may include a little more shopping but definitely no carrot cake.

So glad your DH made it home safely DYAN.

See you later, gang . . .

Cool

Hi, all. Overcast day. May rain tomorrow. Yay! Took a day off work yesterday. Gastrointestinal problems. Busy at work. Wish i could retire. Been sort of remiss in taking my bgl. Right after lunch today it was 97, which must have meant it must have been lower before I ate. Didn't feel it though.
Dyan - Have a great trip.
Rosey - here's hoping that the pains are signs your legs are coming back to life.
Jeanne - Where are you? I hope everything is alright.
Have a good weekend.

Hi everybody . . .

Another gloriously sunny day for northeastern Nova Scotia -- -- and I must get myself out there to play. I'm sure it won't be long before you have to put up with hearing me complain about the "S".

Had a good 'clean-eating' day yesterday and got a nice bedtime BGL of 5.9 / 106 to show for it -- of course, as usual, it's back up again this morning.

Hope everyone has a terrific weekend . . . see you soon . . .

Another great looking day -- sunny but fairly cool -- nothing big in my plans for the day.

Oh ROSEY . . . I do not want to think about snowballs yet . . . we are having another beautiful Autumn day and things actually seem to be warming up a little, too.

For some strange reason, this is one of those days when time seems to be moving at at least twice the normal rate of speed. I don't seem to have done much today, but it's already past 2 pm.

Finally made the appointment for my A1C and couldn't get in to see the doctor until Monday the 27th . . . BGL is still running horribly high first thing in the morning and then dropping significantly by evening. Consequently, I fear I'm getting into some bad eating habits -- skipping breakfast, for example -- and will almost be glad to get back on the insulin regimen because it will definitely make me eat on a more logical schedule.

Other than that, SSDD . . . hope you all have a great one . . .

Another day of sleeping in . . . and therefore running late . . . got to break this habit. Guess I'll set the alarm for a few mornings to rewind my internal clock.

See you later . . .

Please, please . . . do not send that snow in this direction, ROSEY.

Actually, now that it is actually daylight, it looks like the forecast for today might be coming true -- supposed to be mostly sunny and with temperatures of 12/13 (mid 50's).

Yep, I set the alarm last night and then, naturally, got up half an hour before it went off. Still did not give me a good early morning BGL (9.7/175) after a 5.9/106 last thing last night.

Anyway . . . must go and clean the kitty litter and then haul the garbage to the road . . . have a good one, everybody . . .

Rosey, keep that darned white crud up there! I am so not ready for winter.

I need to be nagged! I keep forgetting to test my blood. This morning I felt weird although I didn't do anything stupid but then had breakfast and recovered. I need to test it first thing - maybe move the stuff to where I keep the coffee mugs? I go for HA1C later this month and would like to have a handle on my FBGL.

Sometimes it's hard to take care of yourself! I promise to do it tomorrow and check in here.

Tested first thing - 5.8 (104.4) - which is OK. Still feeling draggy but found out yesterday that my hemoglobin is low. I'm back on iron supplements and am going to make an extra effort to eat better with more fruits and veggies.

Oh wow . . . not much went right yesterday for some strange reason . . . actually about the only thing that was okay was my eating. Go figure that out if you can.

Think things started off too early for my old body to cope with or something. Who knows. Hopefully today will be better for everything and the eating will still stay on track. So far the BGL is a bit lower this morning than yesterday morning, but still not good at over 9 / 162.

Keep moving and shaking things today, see you later . . .
