Today's Stats:
Lunch No-stats
Again, she became hungry earlier than would be normal lunch time, and I honored her hunger with a 3.5 oz bag of microwave popcorn and V-8 juice with 1/4 tsp cinnamon. This time, I didn't bother with stats at all, not even before her nap, as I did yesterday. She laid down late this afternoon, exhausted, probably from the workout and the incredible surge of well-being she felt, and the energy she used on behalf of both.
Dinner
Although all she said, when I was finally able to awaken her (I tried twice, the first time, a half hour before I was able to get through to her, she was so deep in sleep that she did not even respond to my touch, and that always gets some sort of response, even if it's only a twitch), that she felt "a little stiff", she was moving like a hardwood board and, once she sat down, she didn't move again until she had to go to the bathroom, once, then decided to go to bed.
Obviously, I gave her no lisinopril tonight. I'm not worried about the blood glucose. I gave her the standard meds and I figure that her blood glucose will be well within her "new" range in the morning.
