So, the rest of the day. We had a good ride to the BBQ place and a good meal. I had a chopped beef sandwich, a few biscuits, and a piece of pecan pie. Ron had pork ribs, beans, and potato salad.
My chopped beef was good, but a little fatty. I was mildly disappointed. The biscuits were good (I ate him!), especially with the honey butter spread I found in the condiment bar. Ron really enjoyed his food, so, lesson learned, it is just impossible to get a perfect chopped beef, it is better to get sliced. I will do that next time.
Ron called to find the status of our ride and they said he was outside. I got Ron aboard and off we went. First we went to dialysis to pick someone up. Then we dropped her off. That took quite a while. Then he took us home. He was a nice driver and I would like to see him again.
I checked my blood sugar, since it had been 2 hours since I ate. Not bad considering I ate two biscuits with honey butter and a piece of pecan pie. And the bun for the chopped beef. I'm surprised it wasn't 300!
I called my Dad when I had said I would, it went to voicemail. Later on, I tried my stepmother and she sent me a message she would talk tomorrow. I find it funny they complain if I "miss" a week but are often "busy" when I do call. I am only calling once a week, as requested. I won't say anything to them but it is a complex relationship.
Ron gave me some money for tomorrow, so I don't need to worry about that. I am concerned about my bus pass. I got my first one some years ago, it is a disabled bus pass, with my face on it. A few months before it expired they sent me a new one without me asking. The "new" one has an expiration date of Feb 2019. So I don't know if it even still works. I will bring my $1.25 full fare each way with me just in case. I am hoping they send me a new pass but if they are they are cutting it close. We will see.
He did give me some spending money, what I asked for (not much). I get paid at the end of the week so I'm not worried.
I will take my stun gun in case there are problems but I haven't seen that dog again, when we ride through the neighborhood. I think it is gone.
Anyway, that's it for now. I am going to go make a cup of bitter melon tea and see if that helps my blood sugar reading tomorrow morning. I know they have prescriptions for that stuff, but I would rather try something natural, with minimal side effects.
After all, I take enough pills.
