    I actually awoke Mom at 1430. The journey there is recorded over at The Mom & Me Journals dot Net for this date. No biggie, though.
    Breakfast substituted a piece of spice cake for her usual toast; probably will tomorrow, too, since it didn't seem to affect her BG all that much, surprisingly. That's finish off the spice cake then I'll have to either make or buy more bread.
    Although she had a "short" day, she was terribly hungry after a short nap (less than an hour), but I didn't want to hit her with dinner, yet, so she chowed down on peanuts, two 1 oz packages. These didn't bother her BG much, either, which continues to surprise me. I'm also pleased about his, since peanuts are good for her.
    I did ger her out on the driveway after her breakfast and she did well, a one lap wonder. I'm going to try to incorporate more walkering into her schedule.
    Dinner was the usual Mac & Cheese, loaded with meat, extra cheese and veggies, including sun dried tomatoes.
    No medication additions, no medication misses.
    Her Bowel Movement occurred at 2320: Relievingly (forgive the pun) healthy, since I'd loaded her with a laxative and fiber, excellent volume; slightly soft consistency but not loose; very easy elimination, no straining and no blood; slightly challenging clean-up, but who cares, since I think she cleaned herself out.
    She retired at 2345 but her light didn't go out until 0055, 6/15/06. She's started a book purported to be the "autobiography" of Santa Claus. I guess it's pretty good; kept her up for awhile reading.
