NOT TOO HUNGRY....YET

I took my blood sugars tonite and its way down to 9.  I have spent a good deal of time today reading about juicing/atkins/dukan/weight watchers/ etc...and diabetes.  Its pretty conflicting advice I must say.  There are a lot of carbs in the vegetable juices, and as Jan pointed out to me, no fibre.  From what I am reading though, the suggestion is to eat a small amount of protein with the juice to slow the sugar spiking.  So, I don't know.  "sigh"  All I know for sure is I can't just eat "healthy".  Don't have enough self discipline.  It has to be pretty black and white for it to work for me.  So I shall continue to juice and research!

We went over to the pool today.  We started our half hour of walking.  Bill and I got talking about our books we are reading and before we were finished our conversation, the half hour was up.  I mentioned this to Bill and he said lets walk another ten minutes!!!  This is the guy who was constantly asking how much longer!!!  I was pretty proud of him!  He came back to the condo and I stayed over there until it started raining.

Later we ran a few errands, banking, propane and farmer's market.  We then headed out to Makenna Landing and once again another turtle was sunning itself.  I also found a plethora of angry birds also known as red birds.  And a very interesting staircase.  Not a stellar day by any means but a pleasurable one.

I spent about two hours on the phone with my Arnie tonite.  I love talking to my kids on the phone.  Talking to her tonight reminded me of when I spent two months in the hospital having Monte, and the primary care of 2 year old April fell on poor Aryn.  And I must say she totally stepped up to the plate, not easy for a 16 yr old.  But we would talk on the phone.  We never really had the opportunity before. This was new for us and it was awesome.  What a fantastic way to communicate with your teen!  Tonight just brought all that back to me and I LOVED it!!  Later Monte phoned me and played me his latest song he has written and it was stellar as usual.  And earlier April sent me a picture of the painting she is executing...and its unbelievable.  And...last night I had a long awesome talk with Kevin about Survivor.  Oh the joy!!!  Someone else watches it and is willing to spend endless time dissecting the latest episode...GOLD!!!!

So all in all a good day.  Now I am going to go out and see if I can see falling stars.  Apparently they are up there tonight!  TTYL
