I got up quite early this morning and walked all the way to the gym. I only went briefly on a couple of machines before starting back, but I did stop near the big kikar to do my stretches. It was also very nice out this morning even though the weather generally has been heating up (with more to come -- the latest prediction for the high on Friday is 45˚C = 113˚F!).
I taught only 6 units of Berlitz lessons today: 9:00-10:30, 11:00-12:30, and 4:15-5:45.
We had lunch at Greg café again today. I skipped the ice-café today, though, which I'm planning to do most of the time since I think it's been contributing to my unwanted weight gain.
David's blood sugars have been running high recently. The problem started about when he first got the cough around 3 weeks ago, but it got markedly worse when he started the course of antibiotics on Monday. Today, we began to get really aggressive with giving him insulin. Finally, we got it down, but, as is common in such situation, we overshot a bit, resulting in a dangerously low reading of 39 (a serious "insulin reaction"). However, a candy bar brought him up quite quickly, so all is well. Nevertheless, high blood sugars, rapidly declining levels, and lows, especially when they all happen in the same day, are all very tiring, so he is not so surprisingly quite tired tonight. (BTW, any of you out there into diagramming sentences might enjoy doing that last one! LOL)
After my last class (and after we had stabilized David's blood sugar) we went again to Ice Park Mall and had yummy frozen yogurts (and, no, it did NOT mess up his sugar levels much at all).
