Up.

.
.
Early, again.  I didn't make it past 8:30.  Crashed, not even to 8:30.  Fifteen before, and I went down like a rock.  Dropped.

The bed wasn't made, the fan was still on.  Had to mess with that.  Strangely, it was warmer up there than usual, if it definitely didn't feel like it.  But, once the bed was made and the electric blanket on, sleep was pretty good.

Thought I heard something, up there with me?  Startled, a bit.  Sometimes I doubt myself.  Because... I don't want to believe.  Something, for certain though. "Sassy?"  *meow*  I... must not have shut the door.  She was afraid, so snuck up.  Since I was almost asleep, she sort of got the drop on me.

Oh, but the dear girl.  I called her over, assuring her that she wasn't in trouble, and that she was welcome.  Not every night.  But... once on a rare occasion.  She did come over.  Afraid to walk on me, but that is because they used to... be mean about it.  Her and Sam, and started getting tossed.  But, just to cross me, while I am awake, is fine.  It tickles.  :p

She even slept with me for a while.  But, when I was trying to get on to sleep, she started poking me with a claw.  I sent her off.  As I was about to wake, she came back up.  But I just wasn't ready.  She did wake me early.  Which... is part of why I don't let her up.  Still, she did sleep with me for just a bit longer before I woke.  I enjoy the little furball.

Blood sugar is 116.  Not... perfect.  But better.  Much better.  The average is 121 now.  Which puts it, roughly, in the A1C range of ~6.8.  If I can get the month to that, or lower, then I'm on to something.  And... I may have to give up even alullose?  Or just have it rarely... strategically?

It's clear, and up to 38 out there?  Crazy, but I'll take it.  The mountains are white, cap to base, beautiful.  The sun is out, and warm.  Smiling on poor fools, or this one.  It's a good day.  Litter and water have been amended, Sassy fed.  Now to get me something in.  Eggs and corn beef hash.  Not perfect, just... food.

I had two potatos left.  I... was hungry.  They are so easy to make.  Instead, I threw them out.  I... am doing better.  We'll see with the corned beef hash.  Or... no.  I'll just check the burger.  If it's no good, and it might well not be, I'll pull fresh out.  Go hungry today?  Eggs and bacon?  If the bacon is still good.  Ugh.  I won't do the corned beef hash.   Perhaps try it later?  No.  I... have to stop all that stuff.

Difficult with a larger full of food.  May have to give it over to the place which feeds folk.  There is a place...  Hmm, I think I know the brother of the man who runs the place?  Yes, or I do and his brother used to run it.  Have to check on that.  Veggies, to this and that.  I can keep the sardines, kippers, and cod liver.  Not sure they would be desired anyway.  Though, who knows.  Maybe they can make fish patties of a sort, with those?  Those food places can get quite creative, living always on the edge with only what might be given.

We'll see.  Thinking about it.  If I can only get going!  Ugh.  Stuck.  If I... can keep to just meat.  I messed up on Thanksgiving, which... is doable.  And Christmas is coming up.  Ugh.  But, other than that, I am... well, the experiments.  Gotta stop, and just... eat meat.  Yeah.

Well... on to waking.  Good day.
