Weekend Recap – Few Too Many High BG’s

Good morning and happy Monday to everybody.  I hope you all had a good weekend.  I know I sure did.  I did that thing called relaxing.  Friday night Amanda and I went to Outback for dinner because I had a free blooming onion coupon, so seriously, who can pass that up?  Over the last 6 months Outback has become my favorite restaurant because of two meals that I get every other time I go, and they are amazing.  Ok, not too much about them, but I do love them.  Unfortunately, my blood sugar did not like them very much because my bg went as high as 435.  I took out my site and could tell that there was something wrong, it was very irritated.  After I put in a new site, my bg went down to a manageable 205 before I went to bed.

Saturday when I woke up, which wasn’t until 1:00 pm, I went and laid on the couch.  I have not slept in that late since I was in high school.  It felt so good to sleep that late and then wake up and do nothing.  If I ever sleep past 9 a.m. I freak out and feel like I already wasted half of my day.  I even took the time to sit on my couch and catch up on some reading.  I decided that I wanted to read some fiction and get my mind off of business and reading about what I do everyday.  I am a huge fan of the James Patterson books about detective Alex Cross.  I am reading the one called Cross, which I strongly believe I have read before, but about 3 years ago so I’m not sure how it ends, ha.  My bg’s all day were pretty good.  Even with eating Arby’s and having a few Heineken Lite’s for the UFC fight.

On Sunday I felt like I was a father even though I’m not.  I laid on my couch, drank a beer and watched golf.  Life can’t get much better than that for me.  The highest my bg went yesterday was about 225, which isn’t bad for the way my bg’s have been going.  The only other thing that I did, which I do every Sunday night is begin to plan out all my work for the week.  Well, not really plan it, but just brainstorm and write down every little thing that comes into my head, and then I try to make sense of it Monday morning.
