Today started off weird again. I had a sugar low around 3:30 this morning. 76. Not as horrible as it has been, and I woke up knowing what was happening this time. Definitely not as strange as yesterday morning. I wish I could figure out what - or why - these are happening, and end them. I didn't even take one of my pills when I went to bed last night because of the happenings of the night before. This is getting worrisome.
After I got back to sleep - after 12 jelly beans and reading a bit - I slept until 11:30. I got up, played on the computer, and then went uptown to get some running done today, rather than wait until tomorrow. After all, I won't have my car tomorrow. My car is going to "Amishville" - Holmes County and thereabouts in mid-Ohio - without me this weekend (my son and daughter-in-law took it for their anniversary get-away). I had not eaten any lunch, as I was just plain ol' not hungry, although I did make myself eat a banana on the way uptown, just because it had been 10 hours since I had had a sugar low and didn't want one to happen while I was uptown. But I was just not hungry at all. Just. not. hungry. I went to the library after all my running was done and played on the computer up there for a bit - for some reason, my computer at home won't load one of the games I need to play to get one of my badges this week on Pogo. After leaving the library, I had a hankering for an ice cream cone, so I went to the Dairy Isle and got me a peanut butter dipped cone - a small one, thank you. Ron and I usually get mediums, so this was a concession for me - a minor victory, if you will. So, I guess technically, my lunch was a banana and an ice cream cone. Oh, yeah, I'm doing good today! <<yes, tongue firmly in cheek>>
After Ron got home and showered, and Josh and Michelle came and took my car, we, along with my sister Jean and Corgan, went down to the floating restaurant on the river for our supper. We hadn't been there in a while, and we won't have too many more nice days to be able to go. Once we got there, it ended up being a bit chillier than we expected, there on the river, but it wasn't terrible. I was extremely glad I keep a sweater in all our vehicles! My legs still got cold because I had on capris, but I survived. I had a BLT sandwich and ordered potato skins for my side, as opposed to fries. I guess I finally got hungry. LOL
Jean went on home to enjoy her time home alone (whee! doesn't happen often for her!) and Ron, Corgan and I came back here and I got back on the computer and they watched TV. That's when I ate my second banana of the day, not long after we returned. I am going to check my blood (sugar) and then go to bed. I think I will take my meter and a nut bar in to bed with me, just in case. This getting up in the middle of the night, tromping out to the living room, checking blood, blah, blah, blah crap is getting old. Maybe if I'm prepared, nothing will happen. Wouldn't that be a kick?
Today gets three stars for food, and one (I did do a lot of in-and-out of the car and through parking lots and stuff like that) for exercise.
