Last Wednesday featured a bad fail for my lifting. I guess it wasn’t too bad when I got 7-6-4 on my reps for the power cleans of 120 lbs and I wasn’t too surprised that the overhead presses came up short with 6-3-2, but it was the front squats that said more than anything it [...]
Got my results for the blood drawn for HbA1c last week, 5.8%. I had thought the couple of tough weeks before the draw might skew me up towards 6%. So the doctor was happy with that result.

I was up in Montreal over the weekend. It was dark and gloomy on Saturday, but I had a [...]
I’ve been getting flummoxed on my control the past 2 weeks or so. I actually saw an 7-day average on my glucose meter above 140 mg/dL. This morning I got blood drawn for an A1c, I’m expecting I may very well see something like 6.1 or 6.2.
It took me some days to decide that [...]
to see one of the greatest wins in Phillies history. It may have been even better than last year’s game 4 in LA when Matt Stairs hit that shot off of Broxton in the 8th inning. That game was tied then, last night the game went into the 9th and the Phils were behind. So [...]
So I started to do some more regimented and planned out lifting again back on the 29th of September. The big problem I’ve had with lifting, especially if deadlifting, is that it tends to take so much out of me and the legs that running gets tough. Too tough. But here I’ve been squatting 2x [...]
I think I managed to get some productive workouts in last week.
Sunday morning, I got up and drove to the park just as the sun was rising up over the horizon. It was chilly, my first loop there took it nice and easy to warm me up. I ran 5 loops for a total of [...]
I had to drop the car off at a garage for state inspection this morning. I then walked the distance to work, but there aren’t sidewalks the whole way so I had to walk over the wet morning grass in places. The socks got wet.
The last meal I had was dinner on Saturday night. Yesterday [...]
It just keeps playing over and over in my head. There’s no fade to it, it’s sharp and jagged, it doesn’t relent. I can’t even bear the thought of turning left out the driveway.
She flies in tonight. I still get as excited as ever to see her, to see this beautiful woman, this intelligent and kind woman who wants to be with me. I have never felt a love so deep and intense before and I can’t wait, just can’t wait for that moment when she comes into [...]
I’ve had way too many 300+ blood sugar readings. Way too many in the 200s as well. Lots of stupid mistakes on my part, with my latest one being I forgot to take the Lantus shot last night. I’m amazed I was only 282 when I woke up today at 6 AM, but I was [...]
