It is now 0358 and I have already taken all my medications. I have been awake for at least an hour now. Caleb is awake. He woke up soon after I finished getting my medications ready. The dogs are lively this morning and playing. I woke up in sweat. Caleb was too warm too. I do not have the heat on. I have the air conditioner and fans on. I don't understand it. You would think it would be freezing in here since the temperature has dropped outside.
Yesterday I did not get much done. I tried to go back to sleep after writing my blog yesterday and woke Caleb up to plug in my CPAP. He wanted to stay awake, but I was so tired from being for hours. He did not let me sleep in like I needed to do. I got out of bed in time for lunch still tired from having been woken up too frequently when trying to rest. Caleb had his therapy and psychiatrist appointments yesterday afternoon. We made it to them, and stopped at Lowe's Foods on the way back home. I wanted blueberries, and some other groceries on sale this week.
I ate my hard boiled eggs for breakfast. I had the remainder of the grilled vegetables from the night before and a leafy green lettuce and spinach only salad for lunch. I ate Vienna sausages for snack. I also had blueberries in excess. I made a ribeye steak and more grilled tri-color peppers , vidalia onion, and portabella mushrooms for dinner. My glucose was good, but my ketones dropped from eating too many blueberries for the day. My ketones were at 0.4. I need at least ketones at 0.5 to be in nutritional ketosis.
I wanted to work on my paper for most of the day yesterday but I forgot about Caleb's appointments. When you take in his appointments, the travel to and from, and the side trip, that took us most of the afternoon! I surrendered my attempts to sit with my work and get it done.
I received half of my Swanson order yesterday. They shipped the supplements first. I am waiting on the keto meal replacement shakes now. I also received some of my amazon orders. I had to restock Psyllium Husk supplements and multi-vitamins, along with replace my C-type charging cable.
I tried to reach my dad all day yesterday. Apparently his phone isn't ringing. It was Dona Sharon's birthday yesterday. I text messaged her because no one was answering the phones.
We have no appointments today so I hope to get pretty far in writing my first draft of my paper. Time is running out. It will be the weekend before you know it!
I need to get the dogs nails trimmed. I have cancelled their appointments twice already. Ugh. I have to take Bubba to get weighed in too.
I have lost track of my lists I created to stay on track. I need to refresh my memory.
I have been resting from listening to the meditation audios. I haven't been staying awake as long in the mornings either.
Caleb clogged the bathroom sink from shaving his beard. I found out as I was going to brush my teeth before going out yesterday. I need to find a plumbing snake. They did not have one at Lowe's Foods. Bubba chewed the snake we had and we had to throw it away. I went ahead and bought some Draino though.
I can't believe it's October already. It seems like the Summer lasts forever here because the heat just drags on. I'm so comfy in my leggings and cardigans.
Nobody commented on the post I created for quitting the Unleash Your Life group. Not one person. Nobody cares. That's what I gather.
I am just sitting here listening to Caleb talk to himself as he plays his video game on his computer.
I bought two new brands of sugar free barbeque sauce that I am going to try when I cook the boneless pork ribs I bought. I might cook them today so I don't have to worry about it. I cook them in the crockpot for 4 hours and they are done without me having to stand over the stove or grill.
I wanted to use the rest of the lettuce and spinach in the fridge to make 2 more salads. One for today and one for tomorrow.
I am procrastinating. I should be working on my homework. I just feel like I had more to say, but I am coming up blank. It is only 0436. I can't think with Caleb's audio on. I can't stop focusing on it.
North Korea launched a missile over Japan 2 days ago. Craig is stationed at Camp Casey right now in South Korea. It's crazy.
I would have more to say about the news if I watched it. I had to refrain from watching it because it was affecting my mental health negatively. I know Trump and his family are being investigated for removing classified documents and other illegal activities. I know there is a war on women's rights to their own reproductive systems by banning abortions. I know that people are trying to narrow the spectrum of children's books made available to them. I know the war in the Ukraine is still going on. Elections are coming up in November, and I'm going to vote!
I guess I'm done here for today. I can't think with Caleb talking to me, the audio in the background, and Caleb talking to himself. I am ready for breakfast too.
Have a blessed day!
