Tuesday 4 /26/11

Wow what a day Fasting blood sugar was 116 not so bad not so bad.. I have cut the dosage of medicine in half.. Taking 500 mg twice a day instead of 1000. So I am not having to stop and eat before I can go do something. Piddled around the house scrubbed the bathroom vacumed the floor did a load and a half of laundry. Then I went to the post office and picked up the mail. Great letter from my brother ! made my day. Then off to Wal Mart and low and behold... what did I find. ??? The ever elusive Scooby Doo blanket my niece has wanted one for years. Well now we just have to mail it to her. Hope she still likes Scooby.. So got some salad fixins and some strawberries. Stuff like that another package of the whole grain pita breads. That makes it easier when we have a sandwich for supper... Then I have one too.Blood sugar when I got home was 98 that was 10:30 so I had a luna snack..A little protien bar snack size, had the peanut butter one.. 11 carbs only 1 gram of fiber though. So it could have more but it was tasty and designed for women with vitamins and folic acid.. Anyway it worked for me. Got my stuff unloaded and put away. Off to Lynns house to pick up the Chew.. Stopped at the Health food store and talked to Angie for a minute. Got a bottle of the African mango supplement .Now it is all natural like taking cranberry. No side effects and is touted highly for leveling off the blood sugar and also for wieght loss... She says it increases metabolism. So on out o Lynns and I took 2 of them. We talked for a while.  She tested my blood sugar at 12:30 and it was 93 so I had to eat a yogurt before I could get out of there. Had to eat something she said.. Ha ha ha So I got the doggie home and tucked into the back yard. Worked in the kitchen all afternoon made a green salad some chicken salad prepared a pineapple and cleaned some grapes and strawberries. Mother had cleaned the green beans that was awesome. Then I dusted.. If you dont know I HATE TO DUST but sometimes it gets the better of me. Had to do something the bunnies were taking over.. Then I went out in the yard and hauled some manure around filled a couple of pots dug up some garlic chives for Lynn then tied up the tomatoes YES ! putted around out there. Lynn came by had to take a break. Had another nice visit 2 times in one day I was lucky ! She had to go a little after 4 and I got supper started. We had pork chops smothered down in mushroom soup. So there was a nice gravy. Cooked some rice, fresh green beans butter peas, and a green salad. I had cauliflower reheated instead of the rice and we had to have a pan of corn bread... Because we are out of dog cookies... Yeah cornbread is a great substitute for milk bones ! Blood sugar before supper was 94 that was about 5 p.m.  Then I went out and mowed the yard well just the back yard. But it looks better. Now I am tired hope I can sleep tonight. Am signing off...
Tune in again tomorrow for more of my ramblings ha ha ha
