This posting is brought to you by the color Gray and the bloodsugar Low.

It is gray, gray, gray out. Pouring rain gray out, although the rain stopped long enough for me to take a very humid walk. A few years ago I was diagnosed with Seasonal Affective Disorder (not so affectionally referred to as Seasonal Defective Disorder), but really, I think I just have an allergy to Gray.

I wasn't motivated yesterday and I certainly am not motivated today. This does not make dissertation writing easy. Nor does the 13th low in 5 days. One day I was only above 100 once. Now, I like good, low-end blood sugars, but perpetual lows are zappers. And although I've cut insulin daily it hasn't done any good.

On a sunnier note, our anniversary get away was beautiful. The Bed and Breakfast was a huge, 150+ year-old farmhouse; the jacuzzi was fair-sized; the champagne was bubbly, and the Nic was happily talkative. I wish we could celebrate our anniversary more often!

Grey is sucky. Makes you just want to curl up somewhere and sleep the grey away.

All those lows would also make any of us lacking in the energy department - so I feel for you.

And I say you two should celebrate your anniversary AT LEAST once every three months.

I can completely empathize with an allergy to gray. And I can also empathize with lows these days. I'm currently entrenched in post-apartment moving hypoglycemic episodes at least once per day.

I'm really looking forward to a bloodsugar over 100 mg/dl, too. :)

Good luck!

There are days where I think the majority of my calories came from grape flavored glucose tabs. Hang in there, those clouds will pass and your blood sugar will rise (hopefully not *too* much).
