I had to get up EARLY to get to the hunt test. Google maps indicated it would take 2 1\/2 hours — but I may have calculated wrong, because I made it in 1 1\/2. However, if I had gone during rush hour, it would have taken the full 2 1\/2.<\/p>\n
My postpranial after breakfast was 180, but I decided not to correct as it looked like I was going to be on my feet and walking for a while. I think that was a good choice. I also had some lovely sausage and cheese bread at the hunt test site, and bolused for a regular piece of bread — I think that worked out well, when I got done with Marcie’s turn, I was at 120. And it was about two hours after the bread.<\/p>\n
I had some problems with the knee today, which I was expected. The PT kicked butt last night, it was all strength and stretching, and I was sore when I got up. Sitting in the truck for an 1 1\/2 hours didn’t help it.<\/p>\n
I got smart. I took Marcie and my chair out during the second dog’s turn, and then ditched the chair during dog 3’s turn, so we’d be ready. One of the other handlers took it back to the sidelines for me.<\/p>\n
Marcie and I walked steadily in very rough terrain for our full turn — 30 minutes. Like I said, my blood sugar after was good.<\/p>\n
I ate lunch with the club and then came home. I got sleepy driving and I’m very proud of how I handled it. Instead of getting candy — something my dad taught me, but is dumb because the sugar makes me sleepier, I stopped at a Subway and got nice big salad. That got me home.<\/p>\n
I crashed when I got home, and then woke up at 5:00 pm with a blood sugar of 140. Not a bad diabetes day.<\/p>\n
The knee is still bothering me. I’m fine when I sit, but the longer I sit, the stiffer I am when I get up.<\/p>\n
It was really nice that my health issues didn’t get in the way of a planned day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
