Oops, it's Wednesday!!

And once again I *forgot* about Ten Thoughts Tuesday!!! Oy!! Then again, I didn't have a working computer until last night ... yup, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!

1) Had the scare of my life last night. I'm diabetic and did my nightly blood gluclose reading only to have "520" displayed on my monitor! Yipes!! No way ... I'd be in a coma with *that* reading. After the initial panic subsided I redid the reading, to have it be a more *normal* 190. Okay, I know 190 is high, but after that initial reading of 520 I was relieved it wasn't higher. (110 - 120 is a normal blood sugar count).

2) Of course, I did my blood pressure reading right after that. It was through the roof!! Scared the hell out of me with that blood sugar reading, it did!!

3) The only reason I can figure that I came up with a false reading was because I may have used the first blood. Diabetics know what I mean ... when you poke for a reading you wipe away that first "bleed". It contains too many impurities - like skin fragments. I don't think I got all of the first blood removed ... or that's what I'm hoping. Everything is fine today, readings still on the high side, but not like that scary one last night.

4) Married Son is home for a few days. We're planning on going out to dinner tonight. Yum. Nothing fancy. His wife works at Arby's ... he's got some Arby's coupons ... and my favorite Arby's sandwich is on sale on top of it. Gotta love those Rueben sandwiches!! LOL. Sooooo, while his wifey is working, Married Son, Grandson, Alien and I will be dining. Yeah, I'm a cheap date what can I say!!

5) Single Son finally got my computer working again. The old hard drive was dying. He swapped it for the hard drive from my old computer (the one that had the fire). Had a few problems with the cable that goes to the hard drive, but fixed it with a paperclip of all things! Yeah, it was "wobbly", the paperclip wedged in the port keeps it from wobbling. Probably not the best fix, but it'll work until I am able to get to the store for a new cable.

6) So how's everyone enjoying all this snow?? I know I'm sick of it! 14 degrees outside ... I hear we're in for a *heatwave* later this week ... temps in the mid 40s this weekend. Oh lordy. All that snow melting is gonna mean a lot of flooding!! Where's SPRING??

7) I've been on a search for a bumper sticker for a while now. I don't put bumper stickers on my vehicles, but I just *have* to have this one!!!! It says "I'm not drunk officer, I'm dodging potholes"

8) Why is it that well intending friends hear you're single again and just have to fix you up with some eligible bachelor (or divorcee) that they know? I appreciate the thought, but geesh ... do I really want to jump from the frying pan right back into the fire? I don't think so!!

9) I've been trying to research a place called Williamsburg, Kentucky. Found a lot of information on it, except for apartments and houses available for rent. Married Son has decided that he wants to set up the trucking business in Williamsburg. He's been through there many times and absolutely loves the area. Seems to think I'd love it too. So ... looks like I'll be moving to Williamsburg, KY. Probably won't move until next year now as there's a lot of things we need to do before we can open for business.

10) Alright, I just had the crap scared out of me!!! Married Son comes *banging* on my door. Just about jumped out of my skin. "Come on Mom, let's go ... dinner awaits". Early dinner it looks like. So, gonna peel myself off the ceiling, get the shoes and winter coat on and head out.
