Hey y'all, :carrot:

Just a quick hello! Life has been busy in my little corner of the world...

today has been a normal monday :jig: at least as normal as it can be in an elementary school on report card day...and the week before spring break. :dizzy: In our kindergarten class today, we had 2 birthdays... :hb: thankfully, we didn't have cupcakes... we have 3 more birthdays this week!!

Diabetes, wise, my blood sugars are doing great.... today I've had some of the yucky indigestion I get with my Byetta sometimes...:p

I weighed in yesterday- down a pound this week... need to update my ticker...:dancer: :goodscale

It's been a pretty day here today- sun and in the upper 70's! :jig: :flow2: supposed to rain this evening and start cooling off some... :rain:

Well, let me run to get some exercise... walk or bike today?? :bike:


have a great day!:hug:

Hey gang =)

Well... I bought Tofu......
my dogs enjoyed it.........
/grin omg, yuck! Staying on the grilled turkey breast and thats that! SL's hovering around the 110's right now and today I am just plain hungry no matter what I do. Even water drinking isn't filling me up, just have to ignore it I guess.
Glad you are feeling perkier meowee! Getting into a funk I think is all just a part of this disease, I know I didn't used to have so many "bad" days back when I was "normal!" (as normal as I could ever be that is hehe)
WB from the road trip Josian, glad you are home safe and sound =)

Off for my nightly walk with the mutts! be good and talk to you all tomorrow!

-Dianne xx

Back in the saddle....

Dang weather-isnt is supposed to be Spring soon? I have about four inches of snow outside, I'm putting off going to work (I can pretty much set my own schedule) hoping it will clear up and the chain requirements drop. My company car doesn't have snow tires and I HATE chaining up! :)

I've been doing pretty good following my plan. I hate that hungry all the time feeling. I have a meeting tonight where they are serving pizza, so I'm going to bring dinner and nuke it. Better that than succomb to the evilness of pizza crust made with refined ingredients!

Time to get going! Hugs to you all!

Hi to everyone . . . so far our weather is not as bad as predicted . . . not much of anything except dull and windy.

Reba . . . congrats on the weight and the blood sugar :hug:

Dianne . . . glad to hear how much you loved the tofu :s: At least you've got hungry dogs . . . my cats won't touch it.

Josian . . . I'm not sure where spring is either . . . good luck avoiding the snow and the pizza ;)

Have a good day and keep on doing all the right stuff. :carrot:

Morning everyone..its beautiful out today and my grkids and oldest daughter are coming this afternoon :dance: i had a good nights sleep no pain:cp: and im feeling fine as frogs hair..ive been busy this am getting ready.. took awhile to put all those groceries away( the non-perishables had to wait till this am) and just have to run the dish washer and fold laundry and im good to go.. i learned its better to clean after they leave as 5 mint after they arrive it looks like bomb went off in my house..just normal kid clutter and i love every second of it..glad every one else is doing well congrats to the loosers and high fives for all our good food choices(except tofu yuck!!) ill check in later ((((((hugs)))))) rosey:wave:

:high: Feeling "fine as frog's hair" . . . I have never heard that one before, Rosey . . . but I plan to remember it. :lol3:

Hi, all. I'm doing a flyby at work so don't have time for individual responses. Thanks Rosey for that Alaskan cold front that's been coming our way this week. I love it! Yes, depression is a side effect of diabetes, but I've suffered from it all my life so I've gotten used to it. Tried antidepressants but they didn't work for me. Guess we all have to live with it to a certain degree. I envy you who have low morning blood sugar. Mine's always high. Been in the 180s lately. Partly because I'm not eating right and because I'm all upset that the landlord from **** has bought my apartment building. Almost too upset to eat.
Well, have a good day ladies and Glen.

:wave: i didn't know frogs had hair rosey. i hope you don't go overboard with your eating because you are mad roseetta. eat healthy :) glen

Fine as Frog Hair.. :yes: .. yep, I've heard that one...have even used it myself.... not sure if I learned it as a kid in Missouri, or here in LA ;) (Lower Alabama) :shrug:

Had a normal day here... cooler than yesterday's 80's.... it was in the 60's today with sun and wind....

water aerobics was cancelled tonight, but I did get in a walk...

Reba

hi all!

Today is gorgeous, compared to yesterday! I got in some strength training this morning before I head out to central Nevada for work. If I'm feeling particularly ambitious, I might get up early and do some cardio in the morning before leaving my hotel! BG was 104 this morning.

:grouphug:

Whoopie . . . I FINALLY got my ticker/slider moving again. :carrot:

I'm thrilled. But . . . and it's a big but . . . I have discovered a flaw in my excel program I use for tracking everything. When I changed it from just tracking net carbs and stuff for my diabetes to tracking calories as well, I neglected to add back the fibre carbs when calculating the calories. Soooo, to make a long story a little shorter . . . I've been underestimating my calories for the last 10 weeks by about 12.5%. I don't know whether to be :) or :( . On the one hand I now have to get used to eating about 200 calories less and on the other hand, maybe my rate of loss will speed up? Now the program-:devil: is holding up my rewrite. I can't seem to get the new calcs to balance. I'll overcome him eventually.

Rosetta . . . stress will do it (not to suggest that poor eating doesn't count). ;)

Glen . . . I'm not sure; but I think only Rosey and Reba have hairy frogs. Canadian frogs are definitely bald. :D I may have to import one . . . so I can feel as fine as they do. :p

Josian . . . Have a good and safe trip. and do as much of the good stuff as you can manage. :carrot:

Well I'd better get back to my uncooperative program or I won't be able to track anything today. Have a great rest of the day, gang. Here's a little dose of :dust: to help us through the night.

My program is fixed. I'm back in business. See you tomorrow.

Wake up sleepy heads. I'm talking to myself in here and passersby are beginning to give me funny looks.:s:

Another cold, but mostly sunny day. Other than that nothing very exciting going on. BS of 5.4 (97) this morning. A little higher than I'd like, but definitely acceptable. I prefer the mid 4's (80-85).

See you soon, I hope. :carrot:

Hello Everybody! :wave: I'm done with the Toys! And I'm still alive!:carrot:

It finally stopped raining here. I'm glad to see Everybody's keeping up with the frog population in their neck of the woods. Hello Dianne, I see you bought them dogs some tofu. Hey Rosie, ice cream with carmel sauce, OMG that sounds good. Sounds like you've got a big dinner to cook. Judy, watch those night time lows. Mabe you should get some of Rosie's ice cream and carmel sauce just in case. Hello Hefty, How's you BS going? Rosetta, sorry to hear about the landlord from ****. Try not to get too upset. You've got to take care of yourself. Don't need to get down sick on top of everything else. Reba, hope you had a happy report card day. Josian, are you on the road again? Hello Meowee, glad to hear you got your program fixed. Wheezy, you doing ok? Well, I've better get off here and get my chores started. Hope you all have a nice day. Bye.

Good morning!

I'm always on the road!!! :) I travel across the state every two weeks... I did get a call from Washoe country for a position I applied to, to take their test on tuesday. I would only have to communte 35 miles instead of hundreds every week!

Anyway off I go, just wanted to drop in!!

Hugs,
Me :)
