A Pondering Mind

Today was a good day. I was up and out of bed earlier than usual, actually about a half hour before sunrise. The outside temperature was 33 degrees, at around 6:00 am. It got up to 64 degrees, late in the afternoon, which made a nice day. Got the one errand done early, then took a walk. Did some more in the early afternoon, and again this evening. I find taking walks is very beneficial. It helps keep my head clear, keeps the weight in check, and I feel real good about myself. It also helps immensely with my glucose levels, as I don’t use insulin. I have been off the insulin for the past 2 1/2 years. When I was injecting it nightly, just before I went to bed, I would wake up the next morning, feeling week and in a stupor. Some mornings the fasting glucose reading would be in the 50s, 60s and/or 70s. Those are dangerous readings. I finally convinced my diabetic doctor to take me off the stuff, so he slowly weaned me off, and since then I knew I would make it work, and I stuck to it.

By the way, I was browsing Amazon, and ended up buying two more books, trade paper backs, as I don’t really care for hard cover books. Along with that, also bought a bag of Panera coffee, as is was on sale. Now, I think its time, to sit back and relax.

Namaste.
