An unexplained 6.6. Sigh
Went to the gym for a 45 min bike ride and a few abs…I was pooped. I did a lot of shovelling yesterday body is telling me to take a rest. It’s foggy and just above zero….what I would call gloomy.
Story time. At the gym today a friend asked me if I had heard about another friends hubby….no, do tell….well it seems he hasn’t been feeling the best lately and was rushed to the hospital. Turns out he had a blood sugar reading of 70! OMG….how is he still alive? He has no history of diabetes and is 68 years old, loves his sweets. Details to come later.
