Three Days Good

It has been a few days since I posted the very first post here. Saturday morning, after my first post, when I checked in with Gladys, my levels were higher than I wanted. But, never one to give in, I ate breakfast and went on about my day which included an opening ceremony for a protest walk with Idle No More. I could not do the walk, but I went to the opening to show my support. That experience is in another blog.

Sunday morning, yesterday, and this morning, my levels are closer to normal! What a relief! Looks like the medication and diet are starting to get things under control. Today, I go for my recheck.

My intention is set that the levels are so good that there will be no discussion of insulin.

I will say there that I really miss certain foods and drinks. I miss wine, or at least, the capability of drinking wine. I miss going out to breakfast and having that decadent breakfast. Celebrating Father’s Day with the family for brunch made me miss those Swiss crepes with fresh strawberries.

My anniversary was this weekend as well, and even though we went to a great restaurant, I missed ordering what I normally would have ordered. There was one highlight, though. The restaurant had sugar-free cheesecake! Yep, and it was so good I almost orgasmed! I thought I was in heaven because it sure did not taste sugar-free.

So, there are things that I am missing, and yes, I know I will grow accustomed to it. And yes, I know it will get better. And yes, I know it could be worse. But this is my here and now and to trivialize what I feel and experience with this is to trivialize myself.

I will let you all know what happens.
