The Old Folks Home

Big sale at Glen Allen Saturday. Hoping to sell all goats and chickens and a bunch of pottery. We had company yesterday, so of course, I had to clean up for that. Ugh.
Lots to do, but I don't feel like doing anything. Guess I need some caffeine.

Good luck on another step to being able to take vacations.

It's much more noticeable when it's processed sugar crap. Candy, desserts, that kind of thing. I don't have this kind of issue with fruit. Fiber and pectin are good buffers.

With those things we get a lot of high fructose junk that's supposed to be far worse than plan cane sugar or honey.

Yup I have a mouth full of sweet teeth. I have to control myself with sweets and some days I'm not very good with the control I need. At least my muscadine jam I start the day with is made with Splenda so there is not a sugar high from breakfast PB&J. The rest of the day I try to hold my sweets to cinnamon graham crackers with either pudding or ice cream to take meds with at night before bed. I still need to what all things white. It's that ugly word Triglycerides.

I put two tablespoons of flax powder into a glass of water and drink it before bed.

I does lower my triglycerides level.

Full close out on all the animals?

Huge shift!

Pros and cons! More time for pottery, and being able to go on vacations will be nice.

I had been using flax seed oil at bedtime but have gone back to fish oil.

Goodnight Old Folks

Honey doesn't affect me the way regular sugar or HFCS does. But when I eat something with honey, it usually isn't as sweet, so it doesn't have as much as the candy/sugar stuff. So maybe it works that way too.

Good Morning Old Folks.

I've never detected any of the sweeteners bothering me. I don't like things like aspartame. We use either Stevia or Sucralose in our tea or other cold drinks we make. Those two things have always been A OK for us without any problems. My only concern is watching sugar for that ever A1C and the pre diabetic signals it can send or the raise in triglycerides.

Good morning, OF.
