181012 Pain Complain
Yesterday was a high pain day, and it was tempting to give up. I did get to the store to buy more coffee. My older daughter's supply disappeared with breakfast. Maybe today I will convince myself that coffee is enough. This pain is getting worse. Why can't I just fast? The monster in my gut cries out for glucose, and aches when I don't give in.

180923 Morning Scare
Several times last night, I woke feeling a little nauseous, so wondered if I added the wrong spice or had too much activity yesterday or made too much change in my meds. Just now, I took my BG, and at first glance, it read 56 mg/dl ( Read more... ) -
180920 Survey
How big is your current place of residence?I live in 180 square feet, and I love it. There is so little to clean, that I can do it in a few minutes. I utilize the outdoors whenever possible, but the recent weeks of rain have turned my concrete slab into a mud pit. It averaged about an inch. Today, I borrowed a shovel to move the mud from the slab ( Read more... ) -

180913 Still Raining
NOAA says it will keep raining, and raining here. It is raining now. There is a tropical disturbance in the gulf, but I don't think it is really doing much this far north. This has to be a separate system ( Read more... ) -
180912 Rain
It has been raining for two weeks, and NOAA expects rain to continue through the 18th, which is as far as the weather grid posts its predictions. I live in a mud pit, and I am going to commit Texan sacrilege:
I wish it would STOP raining! -
180830 Sometimes...
Some days, I just freakin' hurt! Today, I cycled to the office for doughnut day, but I did not feel like buying any doughnuts for the group. Instead, I brought some leftover sugar-free candies, and I ate none of them. It is not unusual to hurt more after exercising, but today the pain has gone on and on. For you women, it is like the worst of ( Read more... ) -
180816 Chris Beat Cancer
I am taking a video course by a man who refused traditional cancer treatments more than ten years ago. His mission has become teaching others how to do it, too. So far, he makes good sense. My only quibble is the one-sided diet advise. He fell into the trap of following limited studies that bypass entire populations and that ignore the effect ( Read more... ) -
180813 Still Raining
It's still raining off and on. There is mud everywhere! Most of my plants are loving this, but the cacti may explode. NWS says that the rain will stop today.
