Yesterday was combined with some good blood sugars and some not so good ones, but in the overall game of diabetes, I was happy with them, not satisfied, but happy. In the middle of the night I could just tell that my blood sugar was high so I blind bolused and guestimated that my blood sugar was about 350-400, I took the recommended amount of insulin from the pump. When I woke up in the morning, my blood sugar was about 125, so I guessed right and my morning blood sugar was awesome. For breakfast I had 3 mini pancakes and a few sausage patties. When I tested before lunch, I had gone up to about 225. I was having one of those Healthy Choice lunches that were about 250 calories and 35 grams of carbs. I don’t know why, but my blood sugar dropped after lunch and I tested out with a 65. Time for the Skittles! But, they are Skittles, so who can seriously only eat enough Skittles or candy to fix their low. With that being said, I was about 230 the next time that I tested.
Neither Amanda or myself felt like cooking last night, so we decided it would be a good idea to go to Chili’s. I always seem to over eat there, even though I tell myself not to. But when that chips and queso comes to the table, it’s just unstoppable, you can’t stop until the whole thing is gone. I did bring some of both of our meals home though, normally I finish mine and then attempt to finish hers. Chili’s usually messes with my blood sugar, so I made sure to test every hour until I went to bed to look for any reasons to think that it may go up really high in the middle of the night. It went pretty well.
I am typing this bright and early in the morning as I prepare for my day. Today is the day that I take my car to the auto shop to see what kind of damages were done in the accident. I’m assuming that they are not going to fix the car today because they are going to need to order parts or something. I am getting a rental car, hopefully, so I should be able to make it to work. I sure hope so, because there’s too much work to be done to take off today, especially for the fact that my parents are coming down next week for a few days to visit, so I am taking off for those days. Not to mention, I will have to miss some time from work to get my blood work done. AHHHH, all these things to do, it is never ending!
Well, I just finished my first cup of coffee, so if I don’t get another one soon, then I am really going to get angry.
Have a great day, ya’ll.
