Things I'm happy about today

My last A1C was 5.8.

Do you take insulin?

yes - they upped it to 40 units - another problem or bad habit I need to stop is eating right before bedtime

Found out you had Asian genes in your family tree?

How many types do you take? I have 3 different kinds. I have a mealtime insulin, a daily insulin, and a weekly insulin.

Does your sugar run high a lot? I'm kind of assuming it does since your A1C is high.

goes up and down - I only take 1 insullin (slow acting before bed ) along with metformin and glimpiride -- Are you type 1 or 2 ?

Type 2. I started off on metformin. Between my cirrhosis and transplant, it made it far worse. So now I take Tresiba once a day, Ozempic once a week, and Humalog with every meal.

I probably should be on Humalog instead of Lantus see what happens in 3 months with the changes I make

He says he used to be one of us, but I'm not sure who he was.

@Orangeslice13 , do you know who Fun coupon Vol used to be?

Never figured that one out

With the lame "your mom" comment it's obviously someone not worth the effort.

All this talk about taboo food reminded me to go rescue leftover tater logs I got at a gas station in Oxford yesterday from the fridge.

Was it the Chevron? Best food in Oxford back in the day.

What’s a tater log? It sounds kind of wonderful.

In SW Arky they call them tater wedges. A wedge cut length wise from a tater, battered, seasoned and deep fried. When we lived in Shreveport, HBPW and I would visit my grandma once a month in Murfreesboro, Arky. There was a gas station in Nashville, Arky we'd stop at every trip. Theirs were absolutely good!

ETA: HBPW makes them now. She bakes or air fries them, tho.

Broke in the new FP insert last week. Burning the first really hot fire this am to further "season" the insert. Already set off the smoke detectors three times. Lol

I am attempting to replace a toilet fill valve. Prayers for my Halloween themed nails.

There was a Greek restaurant that the missus and I patronized (alas, no longer in business). They served grilled wedges cut lengthwise from monster potatoes. We adore these. Similar to “logs.”

He is out of town for work until tomorrow night and we leave for the beach Friday. He told me which part to pick up and that he would get to it when he got back. I just went ahead and did it myself.
