 On my birthday this year,

I was gifted this jigsaw puzzle.

I LOVE it and thought that it would be an easy, fun puzzle to have out and work on.

BUT NO!

This was so much more difficult 

than I imagined and 

I loved every second of working on it.

Thank you Debbi and Lew.

You are awesome neighbors 

and you know me so well.

Love you beyond the moon.

Journaling Again

Photo: The Journal

I have started journaling again.

Often I add things to my journal,

like notes and pictures.

I use a Lamy fountain pen 

to scribble with and

I never write anything in the journal,

that if something should happen to me,

(like death)

would hurt anyone's 

feelings upon reading.

Rule of thumb is:

Stick to the facts and keep it short.

You can always spill your guts 

and not hurt anyone's feelings.

Sometimes it is difficult because I have

so much to say!

Have a perfect day.

Love you beyond the moon.

 It was so hot yesterday.

I made chicken salad sandwiches 

and we took them to the park.

We just needed out of the house.

We listened to Schubert while eating.

Here is the link if you are interested.

Have a good day....

Tired Of Not Feeling Well

Photo: My guy cooking dinner

 Yesterday, was Sunday, Dinner and a Movie. 

I had planned a delicious  meal all week, 

but yesterday morning, I did not feel well and

 cancelled the entire thing. 

I don't think that has ever happened before.

I guess its time to share something.

After many years battling my pre-diabetic A1c,

 with agonizing uti's, and other random 

diabetic related illnesses,

four months ago, I was diagnosed

 with Type 2 Diabetes.

My A1c was 10....and to be honest, 

I was tired of not feeling well.

I have started meds and 

 wear a Dexcom G 15. 

(It is a sensor placed on my upper arm.

  I do not have to stab 

my finger numerous times a day!)

Larry and I have made a conscious decision 

to eat better.

For a Type 2, that means no carbs and no sugars

 with smaller portion sizes. 

Yesterday my diabetic meds 

made me feel awful...... 

and sweet Larry took over the meal.

We had rotisserie chicken, 

salad, and strawberries.

I had 2 glasses of wine 

and my glucose numbers 

did not spike. (YAY!)

Our movie was

 North BY Northwest

that is one of my favorite movies.

Larry did such a good job, 

but I will take care 

of the meal next week.

I hope that you had a wonderful Sunday.

I love you beyond the moon.
