Yeah, there is that.

I'm a bad boy.  While finally getting to managing diabetes I forgot about the rest.  Just kept on doing what I wasn't doing.  I wasn't taking medicine.  I got held up with potassium, then finding vitamins, then... it all just timed out of memory.  It's probably a good thing I am not a fragile dead man walking.  Still, back to the grindstone.  I've got several days of potassium and all left.  I'll use that, look for vitamins and replace the potassium as side not main quests.  Quests?  Whatever gets the dogs barking, innit.

Lots of sleep, or so it seemed.  Gathering what feeble wits are mine to muster, then using those to account downtime, it was between six and seven hours.  Short, but I didn't wake for anything.  Most nights, say 99.9-100% for the last five years, since the water pill, going at night has become customary.  Usually four to six times, if lately often down to two or three... massages, pedicures, and working, all help open channels so I drain better in the day.  Huh?  You seemed to be dozing.  :p  Or was that me?

Today?  I've already started!  Soaking dishes were given some rubba-dub, then their soak redone.  A fresh load of laundry was set, the load in the dryer given a refresh.  Actually a few other bits and parts were kicked out, if... I am not awake enough to quite recall.  Heck yeah, I'm on things.  I just have to make sure trash and recycling are put out, 4:00 is about as far into the morning as I dare.  Beside thinking of other things to go, and moving slow, it... better before that time.

Resting blood sugar is 196.  Not great, but it is resting.  I was hoping for better.  Pretty small improvement after a day without food.  Then again, something jaggered it a lot higher a few days ago.  I am in recovery mode just from that.  On the good side, from experience thus far, there is a 90% probability the rest of the readings will be lower.  What amazes me about fasting?  The way the hands will try to sneak food around the will.  Ever had a pet steal food?  How stealthy, how smooth, even right before your eyes, looking directly at you, into your eyes, and yet you don't see, believe, until your sandwich or whatnot is gone?  Right.  I really have to watch.  Sneaky bastage.

Well, tea, reading, music.  Then back to it when I am awakerish(tm).
