I guess the 100th post should be one that contains good news so here you go. I made it home fine and earlier than I normally do since my back haul appointment times were changed from 10pm Tuesday pick up to 7am Tuesday pickup. I walked in the door at home on Tuesday night at 745. Good Time.
Isaac is doing much better and thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and concerns. His sugar dropped again to 46 on Tuesday but Sheila had gone into the school and made sure that they understood what was going on and what should be done. She put a plan in place in other words. They called her and she was on her way to a counseling session with Preston so she went and picked him up and took Isaac with her the rest of the day so that she could keep an eye on him. He takes two different types of insulin. One is long-lasting that he takes at night and in the morning, and the other is fast acting that he takes before each meal. Come to find out that he had not taken his long acting before he went to bed Sunday night and so his sugar was 465 when he woke up Monday morning. He then takes more fast acting insulin to try to bring it down and it just crashed down to 37.
So we now have another plan in place. He is not allowed to take insulin without someone else watching him, just to make sure that he takes it. He is only 11 and we can't expect him to do it all the time like he should. I don't take all my pills like I should and I'm... a bit more than 11.
They're still watching our hours at work and I'm already at 44 or so, so I'm off the rest of today and all of tomorrow. Maybe I can get a nap in while Sheila gardens and finishes up the laundry. The dishes are piling up too.
She's getting pretty far behind.
Sheesh!

Thanks for the uplifting reminders about what's TRULY important.
congrats on #100. I like the sign too. Time off is good enjoy the break.
Congrats and yay for us on your
100th post!
Good that things are better sorted out with the 11 year old. I have to say it is nice when there are two parents to make sure things are taken care of.
And sheesh! is right,buddy! Better watch out!
Is that sign at your house? How do the neighbors like it? Whose puppies are you giving away?
Thanks all.
The sign is not at my house but it probably should be. Actually it was on Ben's computer and I was using his to post that day. He finds the coolest pics. And they're not all porn either.
Thanks for the comment, I do try to dig out an offbeat word every now and then just for fun. Should have heard the confused driver when I said debris on the dotted line instead of trash or gator. Up to that point I never realized that debris was an unusual word.
Love the sign too. A beauty salon here in town has the same sign up, makes me smile every time I see it.
