2. That's understandable.
But I put the sugar in the fridge because I was being spacey. :P

You live in one of those spacey parts of the country.

I've done that during the hot summer months, but never this early in the season.

5. So you can actually do that, then?
But no, I didn't do it on purpose. :blush:

You've got a great thing going on Heidi, no wonder you love middle age.

12. You're referring to my cat,
aren't you? Yes, I agree. I'm lucky Ginger chose me, and he's always happy to remind me of how lucky I am. :rofl:

14. My coffee is great!

I haven't had it without sugar in a long long time. I guess I can pack just coffee beans & cocoa powder for my trip. :)

17. I add a bit of express when I seriously need a jolt.

But I just got a letter from my doctor in yesterday's mail. x( The blood work that was done on Wednesday showed an elevated sugar level so I might as well start cutting down now. He wants me in his office for two sets of test.:(

Honestly I just wanted to renew my prescriptions before flying south for 12 days. This is a surprise. I'm sure if I juggle my time we'll get all of the necessary test done. It shouldn't be a big problem :shrug: just a change in diet. I don't know how I'll live without chocolate but it looks like I'm going to be giving up a few things. The mixed drinks I enjoy are sweet ones and I am seriously addicted to drinking Coke. Oh well ~ I'm sure I'll lose a lot of weight when I start satisfying my munchies without sweets.

22. Can't you have just a little bit of chocolate on infrequent occasions?
I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't get a chocolate fix, EVER!

23. I think that I can.

The person I'm visiting in Florida has Type 2 Diabetes. He manages it without medication. On one of our phone calls earlier this year he mentioned thar he can eat a little chocolate. Eating only 1/2 a bar would drive me nuts!

BTW - He loves to cook. Maybe this is the reason I didn't wait until the Fall to see an old friend. :) Changing my eating habits will be more fun this way.

24. It was indeed.

I'm always the first one up. :D
I have a lifetime of being in morning stealth mode.
*note to self* You cannot unload the dishwasher while in stealth mode ~ dummy!
