Lady Sheherazahde's Journal

The New Job is going well. I am taking the bus to work (with my neighbor Sarah - the best neighbor ever!). So I'm walking more. Wednesday I had trouble controlling my blood sugar on my first day at work, it started out high and stayed there. So I called Bu (my diabetes counselor) and he suggested I try to lower my carbs more. So today was very low carb day and my blood sugar tested below 100 all day.

I did collapse as soon as I got home yesterday and today, but that is normal for me when I'm starting a new job. And I have been getting more exercise so I hope my increased energy levels at the beginning of the week were not just a fluke.

I wanted to write that I feel like my life is really making a change for the better. But I realized that I have said that in the past. It is spring and every spring I try to improve my life, get in shape, clean the house, just pull myself together. And every spring it works for a little while then falls apart.

I hope these new medications will break the cycle, but only time will tell.

Sarah and I are going to Barb's for Procrastinator's Beltain. We are leaving here on Saturday morning and coming back Monday. There is so much I have to do to get ready.
