The Froo-Froo bits:
This was an interesting day. I had about 4.75 hours of sleep (not nearly enough), and was very tired all day. Still stuck to schedule, which is AWESOME. I didn't have an afternoon walk, and I'm still counting the day a win. I tried. I grabbed my iPod at 3:30 PM, and walked outside to begin my walking. I got around the corner and just . . .stopped. My legs didn't want to move anymore. So, I sat down in the sun dribbling through the clouds and watched a butterfly on the magnolia trees outside my building and listened to Enya. It was an awesomely relaxing way to spend my afternoon break, and it was just what I needed in that moment.
My blood sugar has been holding steady all week, even with the reduced basal rate, which is awesome. Overall, things are going well.
