Better

 I’m feeling a bit better, even before I am to start on insulin,
I’m pleased by this.
I suspect my diabetic diet , is responsible for this as the peaks and troughs of my blood sugar have been ironed out a little.
And I have been strict .
Yesterday I spent the whole day cleaning out the kitchen cupboards without an afternoon nap .
Last night I read most of a book without falling asleep
Warmed by the fire , I was still awake at nine , as the twins swaggered down the stairs to take their place near the hearth .
Only then did I go to bed.
Today I’ve made bacon soup ( from the diabetic menu) and had a hot shower with Roger ( which he loves)
I listened to The Archers Omnibus on IPlayer, spoke to a friend and listened to music as the Welsh sat on my chest and the twins hovered nearby.
I listened with interest to the eloquent speech from Justin Trudeau waging economic war on Trump
Animal Helper Pat stopped for a chat and moments later Mrs Trellis dropped off dog treats wrapped in serviettes 
Sundays are a little long as they always say to me couple time 

Hey ho

  1. From the first sentence, should we deduce that you have been diagnosed as a Type I diabetic? I thought you had just entered the Type II category.

    1. I wondered the same, YP. I don't know much about diabetes, but did think insulin was only prescribed for T1. Anyway, glad you're feeling better, John. Onwards and upwards! xx

    Good to hear you are feeling better. Thank you John for mentioning Justin Trudeau’’s speech. I am pleased that you listened to it, and I hope others do also. It made Canadians proud to be Canadian, and I think captures our country’s dismay at Trump’s combative tone. We are figuratively cleaning out our kitchen cupboards. Lists are appearing on line, we are stocking up with only Canadian products from the grocery store. Jean in Winnipeg
