So Freaking Frustrated
I don't see the doc until Thursday, so I'm gonna gripe here. My endocrine system has a mind of its own, and it's making me crazy. My numbers are all over the map, with no rhyme or reason. My fasting this morning was 127, which is as low as it has been in a while. This is good. Low enough to not need any Humulin. Eat breakfast, 42 carbs, and a ( Read more... ) -
More Insulin
Went to the doctor yesterday - I get to go once a week for a while. She upped my Lantus (slow acting insulin) to 15 units a day. I take it all at once, as it is 24 hour insulin. The one thing she doesn't seem to understand is that my schedule is not "normal" with a 9-5 workday and getting up early, or going to bed early. I've been taking the ( Read more... ) -
Excitement in C'ville
We have had excitement here tonight in town, and a first. A forest fire in January. About 1/4 mile from the house. Not burning our direction, and will be out in another few hours. Fortunately no residences down where it burned/is burning ( Read more... ) -
B-day Stuff
Yesterday was my birthday. Got some neat stuff from Dean - new slippers, ear muffs (the kind without the strap, just little pockets for your ears, and just in the nick of time), couple of books, and an Angel Chime like this: http://www.etsy. ( Read more... ) -

If you are a praying sort
Please pray for Dean and I. I'm taking him to the ER right now. He's had a hernia for years, and it got a whole lot worse last night. I'm hoping that they'll actually fix it when I take him in today. -
I Want Autumn
I'm not sure why, but I really, really, really want it to be autumn already. I'm craving a fire in the woodstove, colored leaves, pumpkin-based foods, warm sweaters (but as it's over 90 right now, this definitely won't work), crisp apples off the tree, the works ( Read more... ) -
New Kitchen Toys
Or new to us, anyway. We were at a flea market/craft fair/fundraiser thingie on Saturday. We had a booth, but I took several walks to look at stuff. The non-profit running it had tables and tables and tables of stuff, and by 10:00AM (it started at 8) they were selling stuff for $1 per bag. I ended up spending about $10 total (not including the ( Read more... ) -
New PJs
I don't normally wear pajamas, winter or summer. However, we're going on vacation in about 10 days, and we'll be staying with family members, so I decided I needed to get some PJs ( Read more... ) -
