1. Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on my shoulders from heck. I can't see how tapering the dress from hips to shoulder would make the sleeves fit, and I while I DO plan to make my armpit gussets smaller in future (6", not 8") I can't imagine that a woman in period would have taken apart all of that handsewing at this point, so I'm going to put two pin tucks in each shoulder, coming down about four inches each on back and front; this will give room for my nursing bustline, get my shoulder seam back up where it should be, AND not take tons more sewing to make work. If that isn't a period sounding solution, I don't know what is...
2. Started on 10 units of insulin last night; my fasting sugar was 98 this AM. My post prandials today have been 106, 108, and 105. They plan to put me on morning insulin as of Monday, when I can give them a few days worth of postprandials. Hugh's prediction that fake sugars would make me feel like crap keeps coming true - now my afternoon sanity break of 1 carb worth of sugar free Edy's ice cream is making me feel wierd, but I had it today without other protein balancing. At least I've had it this week to get me over the psychological hump, but I WILL need a new 'treat' of some variety to keep me from climbing the walls - I guess I am just going to have to go for really small portions of real chocolatey stuff instead (which would be just fine by me if I could then wash it down with MILK, darn it!)
3. The ceiling won't be done until Wednesday, as the rain has kept the mud from drying. I want to get moved in there next weekend, so we can get working on the kitchen, and get settled already! Especially since now O is making noises about wanting to try and get the bedroom carpet redone before Lumpy arrives too. Yeah, right.
