June 2020

My first family MD told me to test my blood sugar twice a day on two different days. I took his advise of testing first thing in the morning on Tuesday and Thursday. My VA Doc changed the second "testing time" to two hours after I finished eating dinner. My three family MDs since 2004 and various VA Docs have agreed with this testing plan.

Kathie is now type 2 as well and is testing on Monday and Thursday. So, I am now testing those days as well.

^VI had a beer with dinner and two gin-n-tonic. About the time I was finishing the 2nd gin-n-tonic , I realized I was not going to keep any of it down. So, I quietly went to the back bathroom, bend over and lost my dinner and both gin-n-tonics. 

I had tried to remove the grease from the hamburger but I suspect I did not get enough of it.

¹¹  I felt so hungry I could not sleep so about 4:30 am I ate some dark chocolate chips. I remember thinking "I'm heading for the 40s." So, a sore of 57 was no real surprise.

¹⁸ I forgot to take my pills this morning and if I had, my evening score would have probably been lower.
