November, already?

The past couple of months have just flown by me.  Needless to say, most of my time has been wrapped up with working day and night and stressing me out.  I tried to take a week off for vacation, but that was a lost cause.  Now, my worries are that my blood sugar levels are nowhere where I wanted them to be.

A week off from work was not going to help my high blood sugar.  My problem was that I succumb to constantly eating out, rather than fixing my own meals.  I did it, yet, again.  Why?  Because it was easier to get something as I did not have time to cook for myself.  Of course, I picked out the wrong things to eat.  I bought veggies and worked to eat the right things.  However, it gets more and more difficult when you are placed on such a tight timeline due to other people's planning.

I have always given in to doing whatever with the hope that I would get noticed for the extra effort.  I am finding that my extra effort is not really worth it.  I need to just keep to my guns and say "No."  I need to protect myself.

I need to get some groceries.  I have barely anything in the refrigerator because I was on-call this past week.  I was unable to make it to the grocery store to get anything.  I would go today, but with my stomach problems today, I think it is best I stay close to home.  However, it might be better for me to go out and pick up a few things, like milk, bread, toilet paper, and such.  I may do that after 5 PM.  Technically, I took today off because I was not feeling well, but I do need to pick up some necessities.
