Good morning and how are we all? Did we have a good weekend?
I fought with my blood sugar all weekend. I stayed very very thirsty all Saturday and Sunday – I must have drank several gallons of ice water. Normally, this is a sign my blood sugar is dangerously high, but when I checked it on my home meter, all it would say was ‘hi’.
Really? I don’t want it friendly, I want it to tell me what my blood sugar is.
Both former school nurse and current school nurse said older meters (which the home meter is) won’t register over 500. It will just say ‘hi’. As in ‘high’.
Joy.
Either way, it’s down to 247 or 243 this morning, which I’ll take. I have a salad with me as well as a LOT of water. This is pissing me off.
Actually, right now, a LOT of things are pissing me off, but I’m going to not say anything until I’ve worked through them and then use the proper channels (not public) to deal with the issues at hand. I suspect this is messing havoc with my blood sugar this weekend. Spawn wants to start working out again at the gym. I’m good with that.
I had hoped to do some writing this, but that didn’t happen.
I DID get the boxes unpacked and cleared out in the living room and the furniture placed where it’s supposed to be. I broke my lit magnifying lamp – it’s 30 years old, so while I got a lot of use out of it, you can’t find them anymore, so I’ll be back with the neck worn magnifying glass and the lamp between my feet. 😦 The curtains are hung up, so we’re moving along.
I need to hang pictures and then it will look ‘done’ – I found my hammer, but still looking for my nails!
I have an end table as well. The room is going to be a hodgepodge of unmatched color – oh well.
All said and done, it’s time for ManCandy. Come get your mancandy on!
Have a great Monday!

I would say you accomplished a lot with the living room and if it has a hodgepodge of different colors so what, eventually, you will get it as you prefer, somethings just take time. Please keep after that sugar level and handle whatever is making you angry inside one way or another. I am sure with that and the sugar is not a good combo. Thank you for the pics of Lucas 🙂 I love his runner thighs and long legs plus the one of him sitting on Malcolms desk licking chocolate of his thumb from the donuts. Ah yes, one of my favorite characters for him. And of course you included some pics of the stern but beautiful Thorin. Talk about opposites, Tall and gorgeous and short and gorgeous.. lol… have a good one!
I couldn’t let Majesstic Monday go by.
Originally, I had a living room – in blue and yellow – and then a reading corner with dusty rose and pink. But this is a bit shorter and narrower, so it’s a crunch. Oh well. I like it and that’s all that matters!
That is exactly what matters, we please ourselves with what we do.
My home will never look like it came out of Homes and Gardens – but it will be comfortable!
The house is coming along great!
You even put Judd Nelson in there!!
I concur w Irish on Lucas and his finger licking donut eating !! Yummy!!
Please take your meds and whatever stress is going on it’s not worth risking your health over!
My blood sugar is way up again. I had a long, difficult afternoon. THis has to stop.
Difficult like physically not feeling well?
Yeah. Not feeling well at all. 4 classes of movies today. I hate that.
I have a lot more to do to the house. The living room won’t be done until the pictures are up, the books are on the shelf and my piano is tricked out. I MIGHT consider a rug. I might not.
Again you just moved so you don’t need it all done in one fell swoop. Take your time and it will all fall into place
It took a year for the last house to get put in order. It will probably take that long for this one.
Look mine house is 8 years in and still needs a lot of work and redecorating but life and finances dictate as for many of us so you do it at your own pace. Just getting the boxes unpacked and out of the way are two great accomplishments 😘❤️
I love that long legged stride of Lucas’s. You always save the best for last!
Take care of yourself x
It was 448 yesterday afternoon. Today, it dropped 70 points between breakfast and almost the end of school. I have a feeling that stress has a lot to do with this. I got the copy of my lease this morning and everything my former landlady is trying to charge me for… she can’t.
