Oh, it took "forever"! I just couldn't get going. Tired. But warmed, finally, mostly. Laundry, being turned to the dryer, was the last thing as it ended. Trash and recycling first. There was more to that than I thought. But, gathered, bagged, tied, moved out, then the bins moved to the street. Both. And both need going.
A shower? I don't think so. I did get medicine. Though I have to check about the other medset. If it's ready, I'll make sure it has the new stuff. Oh, and probably another prescription. They are short scripts, in case they don't work. I don't quite want to sign off on them. Just because I am able to keep taking them, and do bare minimums, doesn't mean it is working. I'm... seeing. This, also, is the bottom of winter, high winter as I call it. Difficult to tell. Still, another month or two, I'll make up my mind. Anyway, I think I have enough until more arrives.
And, I should begin testing bp again... now without that one portion of carvedilol. We are getting very close to the right numbers, and right medicine, to do the job. But... it... I have to be able to do more than just eat and sleep. No, managing pets and small livestock isn't enough else. Those things shouldn't be a problem. At least being able to get on top of the house as well, and maybe getting out once or twice a week. Swimming, hiking, snowshoeing, anything! Well, and shopping a bit more, for fresh veggies.
We will see. I want to see what bp is, now, too, on the lower dose of carvedilol. Getting there, just... maybe needs to be better. Is there more I can do? I'll... I'm... trying to see where, or how, I can fill in the gaps. If possible. High winter is a tough time to do it, but if it is possible, it would show up now. So, in this next month, depending on numbers, and what I can do...
A bit bodily cranky, slightly sore, just muscles. I'll take painkillers tonight, just because I have ignored these pains for some time. They are, generally, comparatively, mild. But, as I have worked, and tried, and done, I have stretched my body a bit. All good. Tonight, though, some relief.
Blood sugar is 113. So... all good. I have been abusing it, lately. But it is being generous in spite of that. Eating right, even if a bit too much? Right, that helps. Even at my worst it is better than often before. Tomorrow? Spaghetti! But with near-noodles, or such. I'll try the zero carb ones... some sort of Japanese root or such. That, burger, boiled if I have a pot to do so in, then with tomato, tomato paste, anchovy paste, and an actually short list of herbs and spices. Well, and of course some cheese. With a salad on the side.
Actually, I am looking forward to it. Might have to hit dishes right after chores, and after a shower also after chores. Still have to be careful about serving size. Just not AS concerned. Though, if I have salad first, it should be a breeze. I may weigh the portions out, so I know what that looks like the first few times. Ought to even do that with the salad, just... to actually know what "three cups" of salad actually looks like! I really don't know, I've been... guesstimating. Always something. But something, once fixed in a place, can often be left to it's own devices.
Not a bad day, not at all. Gifts, debts, work, chores, pets, and body. Amen.
