Oops, it's Monday, dinnertime, and I haven't started a new Staying the Course week yet.
Well, I have an excuse: I have been trying to decide whether to have a dish of Jell-O or a big ol' popsicle (but not a red or purple one) for supper.
Yes, I am enrolled in Colonoscopy Prep and I am whining. Today is the final day before the procedure (which I am advised to have every 5 years) and so it is all-clear-liquids diet day. Now when you are type 2 and have to keep your blood sugar under control, this is quite a challenge -- doing it without substantive snacks. So far white grape juice seems to be the best recourse available, but I have to drink 4 liters of prep solution tonight and early tomorrow morning and so I don't know how that will go (except that I will go and go and go)...guess will just have to keep checking blood sugar and if drops too low, call the butt doctor and tell him hell with it I'm going to go get a bacon cheeseburger.
Okay, so I am in a weird and kinda surly mood....hope the week is starting better for you all. As I said in last week's thread, I am saddened to hear about the accident that took the life of one of honeybunny's beloved dogs. Sending my best thoughts.
Will write more after I get off sedation tomorrow and have a cheeseburger in hand. Or actually it might be more entertaining if I wrote while still under the influence.
I see Supergirl premier is tonight. Maybe ol' Superbob should check that out while sipping some nice clear broth.
Cheerio!
