Well, I must have got the carbohydrate balance in my diet right… I eat whenever I get hungry, and I use sandwich thins and the occasional bowl of frozen yoghurt for my sugar, and I have some of John’s sugar-free stuff if I want another treat… my weight is creeping downwards this week, so I must be doing something right. Yesterday morning I got up and walked around the block the way the doctor told me to… walking without the cane sucks. Unfortunately just that little bit of a walk (only 1/3 of a mile) wiped me out for the rest of the day. I can’t go for a walk today because I have to clean the house - with John home all week I haven’t really done anything about cleaning and now it’s a pigsty, and it’s nearly rent day. I know the landlord really couldn’t care less but I always try to have the place clean when he comes to the door to collect the rent.
John’s feeling better… he took the rest of the week off work and he was muttering about going back early, but he changed his mind because he feels like crap in the afternoons. I wish he’d get moving on finding a dentist but he says he has to take the antibiotic for two whole weeks before anything can be done. I made chilli dogs yesterday and he insisted on eating them in the ‘normal’ manner (I was going to cut the dogs up and mix them in with the chilli so they were easier to eat), only of course then his mouth hurt him a lot afterwards. The pork is in the crockpot and hopefully it’ll be ready to pull soon. Not sure what we’ll have with it, maybe I’ll boil him some green beans instead of microwaving them, so they get softer…
