Life is so interesting. I haven't written for a very long time.
I messed up my original blog site and lost everything on it. I couldn't figure out how to start again and then I got busy. But today is a new day.
Most importantly, Tom is doing a better job of managing his diabetes. He still goes low almost every day when he gets home and before dinner. But the good side is that he is drinking more juice when it occurs. Sometimes when he notices and even when I suggest it. He is so much more better at dealing with it. Not that we don't have occasions when its bad -- but we are handling it so much better than before.
I have had a tough few years. In 2013, 4 people in my family died -- including my dad. I had 4 surgeries in 6 months, and it took almost all of 2014 to recover. I was still trying to make my consulting business work -- but I lost interest and closed it.
In January 2015, I officially retired. At first I was unsure but then I really got into it and I am SO HAPPY! I am very busy doing mundane things like grocery shopping and cooking, spending a day with my mom each week, and getting some exercise on a routine basis (finally!).
Currently, Tom is being sued for a traffic accident that occurred in 2012. He didn't see a car in his blind spot, changed lanes and hit a car. Insurance is covering everything but it is still upsetting.
Also, his job has become so stressful that he is burying himself in his work (12-hour days) and getting by one day at a time. He loves the actual work, but the politics are getting to him. Sound familiar?
OK, I think that's enough history for one blog. On to the rest of my day...
