karlht: Mu the giggling dragon, as drawn by Max Toth in 1992-ish (Default)

Last week was a bit disorganized, on a bunch of levels. There is a small but significant list of things left undone: the lab visit, the re-scheduling of my behavioral psych appointment, the mid-week post I had talked about last week ... and my weekly summary post. Hmm, I'm detecting a pattern here. My phone even got into the act: my step-counting software updated itself during the week, and the handy summary info I had been using for these posts was suddenly nowhere to be found. Short summary: basically 8k steps/day for 6 days this week, for a rough total of 48k steps, or about 34km, significantly down from my average week.

Also conspicuous by its absence was any sign of motivation to do anything but play with laptops in my pyjamas on Saturday. I didn't pick up my phone once, so I had a record-breaking 0 steps recorded. There was a sort of perverse purity in that step count, showing both the limitations of the measuring device and my utter lack of get-up-and-go. I did make step-count on Sunday, getting back in the saddle with some enthusiasm. And so far today, I am halfway to step-count with good numbers. So I think we can regard Saturday as a temporary aberration/respite, with no lasting effects.

Blood sugar was surprisingly stable, given all the other chaos. I'm actually motivated to get into the lab and get that A1c done -- I'm curious to see the results. Maybe I'll do that this afternoon in the gap between meetings. Better drink a litre of water now, then.

Social life was good last week, and is going to get positively busy this week; I have a friend coming in from out of town, and plans for at least three out of five nights this week. Quite a change from the fairly quiet summer.

All right, time to get this out before it gets any later. Thanks for reading; I hope everyone is doing ok out there.
