I woke up in the middle of the night because of low blood sugar. This happens to me occasionally and I know how to quickly deal with it after so many years. The news wasn’t all bad though because while I was awake I found that one of my
My CPAP and the adjustable bed are making it easier for me to sleep at night. I am finally getting almost 8 hours of sleep each night, and that hasn’t happened in years. I hope that this continues. The weather today will be rainy and miserable around here. I

Yet again, there was another mass shooting at an American university. I am numb to these preventable deaths, but I’m despondent because I know that absolutely nothing will change. We are the prisoners of our own choosing, but while there is a way out of this, our so-called
