Just got back from the endocrinologists Dr. Woo.....Dr Big Woo. He has put me on another fast acting, rapid reaction insulin to be taken 5 - 10 minutes before or immediately after dinner. It seems that my glucose goes up late at night, I can't see why...could be the cookies...mmmmooohahahaha! Anyhow, Catherine and I left early this morning in order to drop off Mom's groceries (the little store that was in the basement of her complex is gone....pppfffttt gone) so we had quite an armloadfull (?). Then Catherine dropped me off at Dr Big Woo's place and took off in the car to a lunch with friends....retired friends. I had to take the bus home! Horror of horrors...$1.80 not bad really, but I had to ride with...get this....OTHER PEOPLE. EGADS.....then I had to walk all the way from St. Mary's to our house.....a mile....orso. Its about 10 deg BELOW zero (about 10 deg f). The walk was hmmm....envigorating.
Tonight we have a meeting of the executive for the Humanist Assoc. We will have to get there early because the hotel has invited us to a wine and cheese thing at 5:00pm. *****must remember to tape 'Survivor'!!
I hope that Gary's tooth is OK. What the h-e-double hockey sticks is going on with capped teeth? I have had absysses in two of them and now Gary has had one. Not very good root canals...eh wot?
Mom just called to say that the post office just delivered two boxes from Gary....."Should I open them now?", says she....."NO", says I "Wait until Solstice!",....which happens to fall on Dec 25th, which was arbitrarily called the day of the birth of Christ ...or Christmas day. As if Solstice wasn't enough! Yule logs, singing , dancing, jokes, exchanging gifts, decorated spruce trees, yes Virginia, even eggnog!.......yar harharhar......
Well time for my nap.....keep blogging
