Maybe we'll have to come up with a blind-diabetics challenge award of the

month/year. We'll call it the Ruth Award!

You're doing terrific, Mark! And as I've said before, you're an inspiration!

Went to Chili's for dinner to night. gave my self the shot in my belly at the

table. no big deal. ate 2 salads, 2 bowls of chicken soup and 12 chips with

sausa and my before dinner sugar was 115 and 2 hours after I ate it is 114. I

think I am on the right trail. now before any one starts thinking I will make a

habit of going out to eat, not going to do that. mostly we go once every 2 weeks

and it is never a fast food place. we like to sit down and be waited on. now dig

this extra bit of news. we are enjoying our dinner with a lady friend who drove

us there. the waiter walked up half way through our dinner and told us he liked

to always do something special for one of his tables that he worked each night

to show his appreciation, so he picked up our tab! can you believe that? so we

left him a ten dollar tip and he tried to give it back saying it was to much

money. I told him that would have been the tip even if we was paying our bill

which would have been close to $30 for the 3 of us. we all had the same thing

and it was grate! blood sugar reading are grate all day! dinner was on the

house! I'm more blessed then I most certainly deserve and this is a fact. hard

to believe I'm now to the point where I can count out how many chips I will eat

when I got a whole basket all to my self. that's what I said! this fellow gave

us each a basket each of chips and a bowl of dip each. a young man was he, but

very helpful to a blind man and a lady with a guide dog. well God is most

certainly treating the pig good so far after all the times I messed up in the

past. just goes to show you, we may turn our backs on him and not go to him when

we run in to trouble and need his murcy, but he never turns his back on us or

fails to for give us when we ask. I know I wouldn't make a good God because some

one hard headed like me I might have to ignore him for a while until he really

got on his knees and begged a lot. then I would still ignore him and act like I

wasn't listening. then I would remind him of all the times he ignored me and

didn't ask me to help him. then I would still kick his butt for a very long time

until I couldn't lift my foot off the ground any more. but then God is the only

god because he can take our hateful ways and still love us and catch us when we

fall! being able to count out so many chips and only eat those and take no more

is a huge mountain I have got over! compared to where I use to be? I would have

ate at least 3 baskets of chips. my God is large and in charge! just look at

what he has done with me? other then my 142 at breakfast, the other 3 numbers

are all under 120. in February my numbers were over 350 all the time and you

should recall what that caused to happen? no shakes to day though. thank god for

no shakes! I hate that ride. it is no kind of fun, but I will get through it and

then it will be behind me for good. I feel pretty good right now. so good, I

believe I will go to bed and dream of a dozen doughnuts with a pot of black

coffee. dreaming doesn't had fat or raise sugar, but it is one mighty fine dream

to have and I have always been able to smell and taste in my dreams! now you

know why I will look forward to my dream to night.

to be honest with every one including my self, I'm blowing my own self away

with my progree and success. from ten years of knowing I was a type 2, to not

caring and ignoring all the worning signs, to now doing everything the right way

for more then 2 week! plum blows my own pig mind. never in all the times before

when I have got started only to fall flat on my head and off the wagon to not

get back on for a long time? blows me away for it to finally be this easy and

not a struggle! makes me wonder if I am even still with the living and not

really dead? then I know I'm still in the world I have been born in, because it

isn't heaven yet. My god had to have wanted me to go through all those different

struggles and failures because I just wasn't ready to except the truth of it

all. I know now it was my smelly old attitude all along. some times I got to

knock on my head just to make sure it is all real. I know my head isn't wood

like it is suppose to be, but for sure it is made of stone to be so hard. I have

noticed though my head is getting a bit soft to the touch now. maybe as we learn

truths in our life we lose more hard and replace it with soft? maybe us hard

heads have to actually be able to all most smell death and all most reach out

and touch it to know how real it can be? I actually got not a clue why now and

not all the many taimes before when I tried and gave up. on April nine, when I

go see doc specialist to give blood and weigh we will know then how many pounds

I have got rid of in exactly one month. may have all my buds take a wild guess

and see who gets it right. I've done this before with all the other list I

belong to for football and snow and different junk like that for just the fun of

it and I give cash away to who gets it right or the closest. all in fun of

course, but I enjoy doing it and it is fun to do. it also makes me try harder.
