Ahhhh, another long, but productive day. Found out that one of my tenants will be moving out, so a big chunk of my day was spent doing paper and computer work. I’ll probably be dedicating a few hours a day to computer work, because I’ve been putting this project off for a while. But my house is still clean! And my roomba vacuumed for me this evening, so I’m still feeling all kinds of accomplished and riding that high.
My diet however is about to take a tough hit. Although I should’ve been eating better this entire pregnancy, I’m going to need to try to eat even better for the next few months because I’ll be testing my blood daily to manage my gestational diabetes. When I was pregnant with Eleanor, it was pretty easy to manage my diabetes with diet, but they said that this pregnancy my numbers were really high, so I might be required to take insulin. Hopefully not, but we’ll see. I’ll be picking up my monitor tomorrow, and doing my virtual GD class on Wednesday. Overall, I’m worried, but not too worried.
Today we went to visit the sheep, but it was raining. Eleanor had an umbrella and I was wearing a raincoat…. which ended up terrifying the sheep and they weren’t interested in visiting with us. So we just took a walk to the shop to visit Daddy and then went home. We had done a safety check on our truck this afternoon, so someone didn’t think she needed a nap today. Which means that she fell asleep right after dinner without hesitation. Haha.
Gosh it’s so late, but I am so glad that I’ve checked all the boxes I wanted to today. Hopefully tomorrow goes smoothly, I probably should’ve tried to sleep sooner, but oh well. I did the best I could tonight.
February 8, 2021 – Today I’m thankful for my control journal or planner. I think that I finally have found my planner peace within my crazy franken-planner bullet journal mess that is going on. It also helps that I’ve become very consistent with my before bed routine. So I’m thankful that I’ve been doing my routines daily.
