Well , I have been a little busy over the last few months. The last two weeks are super busy but much less stressful generally. I am slowly getting things organized and making things work better. I am developing habits that I desperately need.
I have been going to mental Health group twice a week, a therapist once a week til this month, and a whole slew of new doctors. My shrink is new to me. I do like him though and we are working on finding meds that help me maintain a stable mood adjustment. I am adjusting still to some new meds and the higher dosages of basal insulin that 'm now taking. I may have to start taking a slightly higher dosage there because my blood glucose level numbers are not quite where I need them to be. I am very happy with how hard I've been working on my wardrobe and getting a few projects done that have needed doing for a little while now.
I finally got rid of the microwave I have held onto for a few months since I got the new one. I didn't want to just throw it away so I held onto it. Now I'm looking to get rid of my loveseat/minicouch. Sadly I have to have someone come and take it away. its too heavy for me to even look at sideways.
I am also making some masks for my fellow mental health folks who I go to group with, I might have to make as many as 25 to 30 to satisfy demands if they really like what i do.
Anyhow here is a preliminary picture of my new cigarette box I just painted and stenciled. I am going to do some ore painting then I need to seal it. I don't think I want to leave it an unrelieved black on the bottom, and yet the top might look overdone if I do.

Seeing quite a few doctors lately. and more as the days go by.
Recently had blood work done. I am very unhappy with the results.
A1C is 8.3
both my blood pressure and my cholesterol are high,
I might have diabetic kidney disease.
All my other things are about the same. I am getting better about remembering to take my meds, and check my blood sugar levels though.
I actually did a plank for 20 seconds today. It was much harder than i thought it might be.
I am working on a few things including my diet and hopefully excersize soon.
Doing good with food, excersize not so much as yet. I hope to start changing that soon. trying meditation tonight in hopes that it will help me rest later.
I am also stopping drinking soda and reducing my smoking as much as possible.
We will see if that actually works or not LOL
Hugs and ttyl!

So today i had to drive around 60 miles to get to my new Endocrinologist. after filly out the paperwork yesterday and sewing two masks to use, I finally got there and went through all the tests and I am doing really well. My dosage of insulin has gone up 4 units to try and get me down to 6.5 A1C. in February it was 7.5 They should let me know what the new numbers are within the week. I go back in a few weeks to see how my tests came out and to do an education course which will be a great help, Plus I will be seeing a dietitian and she should be better able to help me figure out some things, she might also be helping me with fitness. Anyhow this should turn out good, even if my numbers are bad. .

Well today i go to a new endocrinologist. Its been 6 months or so since my last set of bloodwork and foot inspection.Since i am type 2 diabetic, this is vitally important. I am not looking forward to the drive, but I need to get this done.I have also been working really hard since yesterday to get all the paperwork done and making two masks to make sure that hopefully no one else might get anything from me I have not been tested.
I might stop by the fabric store to see about getting some elastic if they have any for the ear wraps. I also might need to buy some interfacing to help keep the masks shape. I hope i can find some before the 26th, I have a hair appointment and one of the requirements is a mask. I currently am using ribbons I bought because they look pretty and otherwise have no use for.
I am hoping that my A1C is better, but i fear that it is worse. I have been doing very well on taking my meds, both the oral and the shots. remembering my meds has always been an issue, partly due to my resentment over needing to take it everyday, plus as a reminder that i can't ever NOT take them. My ADHD does not help matters at all. I
I am attempting to work on my various issues but sometimes i just don't have the energy or the will to continue. But i am working on it. I just sometimes have to take breaks so that I don't get burnt out.
