I was called the old guard yesterday by my bosses boss. I wouldn't mind so much but she is older than me. I am not going to let her forget this ageist comment.
I will make references to getting my slippers at future meetings and maybe needing a stick.
Its my wife's name day today - bit of an excuse to get more presents. I got her and inspired "shiatsu massager". Needless to say she is looking forward to trying it out this evening, probably while lying naked on a sheepskin rug.
Happy days.

Blood pressure
Bought a blood pressure meter today. Wanted to do another of the tests diabetics tend to do on themselves. As its new I did it 4 times. First was a bit high 153/91 back from the shops. Second an hour later was 145/84. Went for a 5k run in the gym and measured about half an hour after 132/81. Once I cooled down even further I got 124/78.
Quite pleased really. The secret to diabetes control is low carbs and excercise.

No hangover today
I exercised last night and put a bit of effort in. I go to a men's keep fit class and I am gaining more confidence. (I am best of all at rope kicks).
When I exercise I feel good. I used to do a lot more then about three years ago I developed a bad back. That put pay to any exercise as my right leg used to collapse (quite embarrassing in front of a class). Seem to be better now though.
I exercise to help with diabetes. Do you know that moderate exercise is better than heavy exercise in controlling blood sugars? I can take BG levels down 2 points or more with half an hour on a cross trainer at a max heart rate of 130. If I exercise higher it goes maybe 2 points higher.
In 3 weeks we go to Spain on holiday - looking forward to that.
Its the week end and looking forward to some r and r with my wife.

Drinking too much again
Got a sore head today. For the past 2 and a half weeks my alcohol consumption is increasing. It started with a weekend at the in laws and has kept going.getting a bit fed up at work because no one listens to me now. I disagree with some changes (other people agree with me) but nobody will put their head above the parapet.
Its time to move on really. I am 53, just given a quarter of my pension to my ex, and have to support my children (even though I have not seen them for almost 7 years) for another 5 years at least.
What should I do. My wife wants to go self employed so I need to stay in paid employment while she sets herself up.
Anyone else been there?

Ever been hypnotised
I don't feel motivated at the moment so I am trying hypnosis. Last night I went back 40 years and it was amazing what I discovered. Everything happens for a reason, even if it seems terrible at the time. Recommend it, so relaxing...

Had hypnosis today
Trying to find out why I am not motivated at the moment. Got hypnotised today and went back 40 years. Very interesting. I am going to sleep on it and let you know. Positive vibes though...
