No Stat Day:

    See this post for particulars.

BM Full Stat Day:

A.M. Blood Glucose:     Time:  1331     Reading:  113

P.M. Blood Pressure:     Time:  1937     BP:  127/60     Pulse:  62

    Normal breakfast: No substitutions.
    Normal lunch, although it happened about 1700. Then, at around 1900 she was talking about dinner. I wasn't hungry. So, I fixed her a microwave Marie Callender's Turkey Pot Pie, which satisfied her.
    Her Bowel Movement occurred about 1530: Fair volume; good consistency; very easy elimination; slightly challenging clean-up.     She was up until 2330. Her light went out at 0005, 7/01/06.

Combined Partial & No Stat Days: 6/27 - 6/29/06

6/27/06: Half Stats

A.M. Blood Glucose:     Time:  1354     Reading:  137

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1405     BP:  117/61     Pulse:  65

    I think the reason I decided not to take stats tonight was because of the raspberry Danish Mom had for breakfast. I didn't want to know, and not taking one stat usually leads to not taking the other. Otherwise, her breakfast was normal.
    Lunch was her normal V-8 juice and peanuts.
    Dinner happened at around 2200: Very simple tuna fish (with minced Vidalia onion, 'dried' dill pickle relish, some spices and a little mayonnaise for glue) sandwiches on delicious organic bread I've found at Costco that's low in both sodium and refined carbs; and half a free sample sized bag of Maui Sweet Onion potato chips.
    She retired at 2315. Her light remains on as I time and date this. I'll report back on her light's out time. Lights out at 2340.

6/28/06: Non-stat, Strange Day, Strange Meals
    Breakfast was normal. No substitutions.
    No lunch, at least not that I noticed. She awoke around 1300. Dinner was served around 2030: Heavily peppered cottage cheese, salsa and tortilla chips. That was all we wanted. Probably the weather. The humidity combined with the heat kill the appetite.
    She was up until 0130 6/29/06. Light went out at 0200.

6/29/06: BM Non-stat
    Well, she was coming out of the bathroom, heading for the living room, when I was typing, previously, over at The Mom & Me Journals that I'd be awakening her at 1400 if she wasn't already up.
    She was up. Normal breakfast; substituted polish sausage for bacon.
    Late nap, no lunch. Dinner of tuna sandwich on organic, high fiber bread; V-8 juice; and Maui Sweet Onion chips. Her BG will probably be pretty high, tomorrow morning. Potato chips always seem to do that, unlike corn chips. I read someplace fairly recently, I think it was Medscape, that the carbohydrates in potatoes are much harder for human insulin to deal with than many other carbohydrates.
    Bowel Movement at 1530: Poor volume; excellent consistency; very easy elimination; very easy clean-up.
    She retired at 2345. Lights out at 0000, June 29, 2006, straight up.

Full Stat Day:

A.M. Blood Glucose:     Time:  1212     Reading:  147

A.M. Blood Pressure:     Time:  1207     BP:  143/79     Pulse:  66

P.M. Blood Glucose:     Time:  1906     Reading:  123

P.M. Blood Pressure:     Time:  1903     BP:  130/66     Pulse:  70

    Normal breakfast except that polish sausage was substituted for bacon.
    We had a walkering session, today...slooow, hard and aborted after one long lap.
    Normal lunch: V-8 juice and peanuts.
    Dinner: Turkey pot pie (Marie Callender's).     Retired at 2300. Light out at 2330.

BM Half Stat Day:

A.M. Blood Glucose:     Time:  1533     Reading:  110

A.M. Blood Pressure:     Time:  1530     BP:  127/62     Pulse:  61

    She was up, by agreement, at 1515; actually not the first time she arose, but the first time she stayed up. Thus, she had breakfast around 1600. I have no idea how her day will go, today, although it obviously will be short; no other reason than she wanted to sleep in; well, and our weather has been changing drastically. When we bathed her I was moved to comment on how good she looked, how straight she was standing, how well she was resisting the "weight" of being washed. She thanked me.
    She's caught up in the news, at the moment. I imagine we'll be short one iron capsule, again, today, but we should be able to get in everything else.
    Well, I was right about the two iron capsules. Got everything else in, again, except the extra garlic.
    In a sense, it could be considered a two meal day. She had V-8 juice and peanuts at about 1830. At 0930 she had ice cream.
    She went in for a nap but was unable to sleep, which didn't surprise me; so, I guess today could be considered a no-nap day, too.
    Her Bowel Movement occurred at 1815: Excellent volume; slightly smeary consistency; very easy elimination; slightly challenging clean-up.     She retired at 2343. Her light has not yet gone out. I'll report back when it does.
    Light out at 0005, 6/26/06.
