Diabetes-update

Blood sugar testing out 138-108mg which is alot better and my weight is 263lbs. So I are getting there. Last night my brother and sister-in-law and their new kid came over and had lasagna. Since I cannot have pasta until I get to my target weight, I decided to create a lasagna with out noddles. I took about 5 eggs and thined them with some half and half and cooked a thin flat egg and then cut it in the shape of long flat noodles it was pretty good, but it was not the same. I need to find out how to make pasta so I can make some pasta maybe out of soy or flax or even splet. Well, anyway back to work. Peace.

Diabetes-not as fun as you think?

So as I have said before I am a type 2 non insulin dependent Diabetic. Good news I am starting to get it under control again. So far I have lost 5lbs of 90lbs I need to loose and my blood sugar is now between 165-190 mg rather than 230 - 300 mg that I was experiencing a week before. My first goal is to get down under 250 lbs in the next 2 months about 7 lbs a month I know this is ambitious but it is necessary to get weight down to manage the disease better. So I am at least on the right track and I have my 6 month check up on July first.
I will try to give a weekly update on this and hopefully in the next few weeks I will try to get some art work up here in the next few days.

This was funny kinda sophomoric :

Firefly - Serenity (not about the movie)

This morning I watched a little TV show called Firefly I think just about everyone who reads this blog already knows about this amazing series. I watched Ojects in space the final episode of the series before it was cancelled so sadly by Fox. I really want people to see this show. It was the first time space had no sound and the first other than in Japanese anime that I have actual experianced a Scifi show that had no aliens. It is completely incredible. If I had the money I would buy this series for everyone, and the cool thing is I know that everyone would like it. I know this because everyone I have shown this to has fallin in love with the 14 episodes and no one can figure out why it was cancelled. The good news is that this series in some amazing twist of fate and fan desire has become a movie called Serenity. So, if you are reading this blog for the first time and you want to know more go to the link. Have a beautiful day.

Peace

Oops I did it again

Here I am again. I just figured this out. I am actually not bad at time management Just at implementation. I think it is because I set up ambitious schedules for myself and then spread myself far to thin to get everything done I want to get done. So the end result is a brain numbing lull that I fill with TV and movies. Not that those things are bad, but I think it is time to re-evaluate them and the importance to my life. This segues me to think more about other things not just TV, but my beliefs as well. Not my faith so to speak, but my beliefs. Such as what have I ingrained in my head as truth that is merely conjecture, for example if something good happens that something bad must be right behind it; I am overweight so I can not get healthy; or the only to get smart or learn is to go to school. So, I think it is time to start tearing down the mythos of my self beliefs. I am still trying to figure that out how to do it, but I think it will take some introspection and a lot of prayer and a little implementation.

Maybe this will be daily...some new websites...Sorry I cannot help myself

What is truly sad is that I am addicted to stumbling on these websites. If you don't have mozilla I don't know what to tell you Stumble is this cool plugin.

Peace

Negativity - The heart of my depression

So, having diabetes is a drag especially when you don't take care of yourself. What can I say? I have a desease and when I do not monitor myslf it gets out of control. Well, what is bugging me right now is my lack of control of it. I am pretty good at sticking to avoiding sugar, unless it is candy sweet/sour candies mmmm...makesmymouthwaterjustthinkingaboutthem. But there is my point. No self control. So what does this have to do with negitivity? Well, I am finding that the more sugary things I eat the more negative I get. So this Blog today is brought to you by the randomness that is the drop of my blood sugar may it fall from the heights to to the depths to level off at normal. I am barely thinking straight anyway. I think who and therfore I am an owl.

Peace>>>>

So as to not fail to update my blog this week

New Edge Networks Sold To MCI.....


This was the big rumor when I came in this morning. WOW talk about the crazy world of Telecom the only reason I new it was not true was that MCI was just purchased by Verizon. Anyway the only other weirdness in my life is trying to figure out why I keep having dreams about selling my house. Don't get me wrong I love the house we live in and it was such a blessing that God provided for us. But I keep running into is it better to sell or get a second on the equity. Such a boring blog today....
