**************************************

I SKYPED’d with Janice for 1-3/4 hours Wednesday morning (3/16) while Michael was out running errands (liquor, LOWE’s, Food Lion, CVS, Panera (free bagel!) I had time after that to take a quick shower before heading out to meet with a diabetes specialist.

I have now signed up for a program for the next 6 – 8 months. They will work with me on diet, exercise, and temporary supplements to try to normalize my blood sugar and get me off of the diabetes drugs which are horrible! They have already had success with several SCCL residents...hopefully soon I will be one of them :~). From previous bood work I had done in preparation for this visit, they have already discovered I am severely deficient in vitamin “D”…I’m going to have to check the results of previous bood work from my regular Primary Care…I can’t believe he hasn’t checked that now and again. I’m not surprised as I basically told them I am like a vampire and once it gets warm, I do not like to go outside…and I hide out in the basement! I got home with minutes to spare for my honey to head over to his routine doctor’s appointment.

I SKYPE’d with BG for an hour around 4 PM then finally headed to the basement to begin to weave in bobbin ends and rip out basting on Sandy’s quilt. I worked until 6:30 when I felt like I couldn’t keep my eyes open any longer! I headed upstairs and Michael and I split a Chicken Cesar Salad for dinner and then I just vegged on the couch until another early bedtime.

*** I danced like no one was watching…but someone was watching and they thought that I was having a seizure and called an ambulance. ***
