Weekends are especially difficult for me when it comes to my diabetes. I have alarms that go off on my phone at the designated times I check my blood. Well let me tell you, when my phone starts beeping at 5:45 on the weekends, the last thing I want to do is get up and check my blood, I'd rather chuck the phone at the wall or soak it in a bowl of water. I also find myself checking my sugar levels less than I schedule myself too. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, instead of breakfast, mid morning, lunch, mid afternoon, dinner, and before bed.
I also have a harder time making myself take my long acting insulin, Lantus. My ringer for that goes off at 8 AM, and again, I am not ready to crawl out of my nice comfortable bed with my warm blankets, to stick myself.
Off topic, I bought two cook books over the past few weeks, and Chris and I are really enjoying the variety in our dinners! Tonight, we ate Steak Picante and Mexican Rice! Super yummy, and the steaks were cooked perfectly! Tomorrow, I am cooking chicken penne with creamy vodka sauce and I will actually take a photo to post!
As for our foster babies, they are doing well. Our cats are itching to play with them and really try to interact, but the newbies are scared. They are gaining some weight, and Chris keeps asking when we are taking them to my dads to live their new life. I want to keep them, even though I know we can't. If we had a house, maybe, but four cats in an apartment is just too much!
I started thinking about teaching riding lessons again. I miss working with kids, and teaching people to ride. Maybe I just miss riding period. So, my search for a horse is beginning. I want something that is broke broke broke, and isn't psycho like Bella. Zoey won't be rideable until at least September 2012 and even then, I am sending her out for 60 days of starter training. Yes. I will have someone else doing the dirty work of starting a young horse. I just don't have the time. Anyways, once Zoey comes back from training, the new horse would be Christophers and I would love if we could go to trails and ride together.
I wrote a goals list today. I have my department and the call support department at work writing down their five year personal and business goals and we will be discussing them tomorrow. I started my position as manager of call support last week, and I am really excited about working with them all.
Our apartment is clean too! Chris worked all weekend so I spent mine cleaning up! I redid our bathroom too!
Well, I suppose I've rambled enough. Happy Monday Eve.
