Good evening. I started this blog in 2006, and just reviewed some of the postings from the beginning. Some years I posted a lot, other years, i.e., 2013, I posted only 3 times. This year may be similar, we'll see.
It's hard to describe how I'm feeling, what I'm thinking, what's going on. Started on a new drug
for diabetes but I have to confess that I'm so tired of poking myself 4 times daily to check blood sugar and 4 times daily to inject insulin except for Mondays when I inject medicine 5 times - on Monday I take a 3rd kind of med to help with the out of control blood sugars I'm experiencing. Thankfully it's only once a week.
I'm tired of watching every single thing I eat, and thinking about how many carbs it has. I'm tired of always thinking about weight issues, food issues, sugar issues, medicine issues, exercise issues, insulin issues. It could be worse, I know. But there are days, I confess, I don't want to deal with it any more.
Well - before I really get to going off on a tangent, I'm heading to bed. I will turn my heart to thankfulness - thankful for home, safety, warmth, family - thankful for God's grace and mercy, and I'm thankful for the ability to work, to volunteer and to enjoy friendships. Thank you God.
