Home Sweet Home

Home IS my favorite place to be, but it has been a little lonely around here lately.  My kitty, Samuel, has spent a few days at the vet's office.  He was diagnosed as diabetic last month.  They tried treating it just with prescription food, but that didn't work.  He was looking pretty sick.  When I took him back to the vet, we were told the next step was insulin.  So he had to spend a few days there having his blood sugar tested and they administered insulin to find the right dosage and monitored him for a few days.

Tonight...he came home.

Aw, Samuel, we missed you.  Welcome home!  Might be up and down for a while, but then again, maybe not.  Some cats adjust right away, some don't.  I'm hoping he adjusts quickly and we start to see a little more of the real Samuel again. 

So, yeah, it's been a while since I posted, but things are okay.  I'm headed out tomorrow morning for WW meeting and weigh-in.  Looking forward to it, as usual...okay, maybe a little more than usual.  I'm heading to a NEW meeting, for a change of pace, see what's going on at other meetings.   Ours just hasn't been .... well, not leaving with the usual motivation and enthusiasm as I used to, so maybe it's time for a new perspective.

It's been a good week for me, pretty much tracking everything.  Yeah.  I said pretty much.  Hey, just being honest.  I did miss all tracking on Saturday and some on Monday, but tried my best to try the rest of the week. 

I also started my half-marathon training this week, and this Sunday will be my first long run on the schedule.  I've been running long runs, but they're going to get longer every week from here on out.  Hoping that the body holds up for me.  So far, feeling pretty good. 

I'm still trying to catch up on blog reading.  Seems like the more I read, the further behind I get though.  Sigh. 
Maybe I can curl up for a bit this weekend with my laptop and a cup of coffee and read up on what all my blogging buddies are up to. 

So for now, I'm out of here to get some much needed rest.  Goodnight!
