Well, the only problem "inside" seems to be cysts. Have an appt. today to discuss battle plan for the excessive flow. Ugh.

Been keeping a food diary as requested, which, of course, has caused me to be ultra aware of what I'm putting into my mouth. Even so, yesterday, I ate 500 more calories than I might have been "allowed", 45 more carbs (that's about a meal's worth) and my sodium intake is through the roof!!!! Waaaaaay to many from processed foods. I'm a bit encouraged that I wasn't MORE off the mark than that, even though I was eating less since I knew I had to record it. In other words, when I pay attention, I'm closer to the "mark" than I thought I was, but I still need to make some adjustments. My fasting BS was still 316 this morning. I have a separate appt. with the diabetic nutritionist on Tuesday.

And exercise is going to be the key, I think.

It's snowing hard this morning. We probably have accumulation of about 12 inches, and it's expected to continue to snow all this coming week. I love it!

In other news (:-), my son, Steven, has been selected to apply for a 4 yr scholarship to the school of his choice. It's an outside chance, but we're still pretty excited about it. Steven is SO talented with his arts - painting, especially, but singing and acting and writing as well. I'm VERY proud of his achievements!

Also, my daughter, Jennell, will have her associates this year when she graduates from high school! That's quite an accomplishment, and cuts two years off her college time toward her bachelor's degree. She is pretty amazing!!!

Good news all around. It's lovely!
