Vacay was great! So tricky to manage BG with restaurant food – did a lot of FPU boluses and larger meal boluses too. Was good to get in the pool a couple times, even though that afternoon one I almost had a crash – down to 5.8. I could feel it so I just went to the change room and had a granola bar then came back to the pool.

Tired this morning. Didn’t get home from vacation until 7 pm and then had to work at 7:15 am the next day. Haven’t felt like I have had time to recover. Tomorrow and the next day I’m working. Fuzzy brained this morning. So much on my mind – working at the store, am I quitting the other job for reals? Am I going back to massage? I can’t make any of those decisions today…

15.7 at 7:40am. No wonder I slept like a brick.
OK. Gonna work hard on this today.

10pm and 7.4. Yay!!
Salads with minimal carbs at lunch and a burger and salad at supper. FPU corrections for both meals and a swim after supper. Plus an extra 1/2 unit of Lantus. I just ate a cookie (15g) now ‘cuz now I’m nervous it’s going too low. HAHA!
~~
Half an hour later and its down to 6.4. HaHa. oops. Shit. Whole granola bar (28g) now. I’m tired and I want to go to bed but I’m a little afraid. Water now and then I’ll have to get up in the middle of the night and can check.

In the middle of the night I don’t always bother with the ‘toast’ part of ‘peanut butter and toast’. Like last night I was dealing with highs from the day and bolused too much for bedtime correction (which I barely ever do). I was at 6.8 at 1am (had set alarm to check). Too nervous of it falling more with another 5-6 hrs of sleep so I ate. So this morning 11.9. Sigh. Great way to start the vacation. (Three days of driving, hot springs and restaurants. The meal part I got info from the dietitian to help with so I hope I can manage ok).

Fighting highs. Two meals at restaurants but did pretty good at lunch. Did a FPU bolus of 1.5units 2 hrs after and got it down from 20 to 12 at supper. 11.2 at 7:30pm after supper of veggies and chicken (look at me and my healthy restaurant choices!!) and my Lantus dose just now.
~~
Went up to 13.9??? Tired. Don’t know why. Too hard to think right now.
~~
Half an hour later and it’s up to 15. Sleepy. Can’t think why. Didn’t count enough for protein? Beer with supper (even though that was 3 hrs ago)?? I’ve had lots of water since dinner too… Not active enough? Fuck it. I dunno. I’m gonna sleep it off.
