I am disappointed in myself for over doing it last night at the gym. My blood sugar was very low today. I felt very sluggish. I spoke with my Endocrinologist, and she suggested I take the night off and focus on getting my sugar under control. We spoke about diet restrictions and meal plans. I am confident I will feel better tomorrow. She definitely wants me back at the gym tomorrow and ready to power on.
Work was not as frustrating today. I think it's because my coworker Melanie was back in the office from her vacation and thus able to help deal with the day to day issues that arise.
Today I sat with my friend Abby, who recently lost her life friend. Her friend who was her everything, aside from her husband. There is a shock about the death. Almost unbelievable. There are no words to comfort someone in their time of pain. I know I didn't give much consolation. I just sat with her as she shed some tears and expressed her love for her friend. I knew she was experiencing a heavy exhaustion that comes with grief. Abbey is one of my forever friends. It pains me to see the hurt in her eyes when she talks about her loved one. Their bond was special. Soul mates. We are definitely given one soul mate in a lifetime, but Abby was blessed with a second. Please keep Abbey in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
My heart is heavy as I think about the past year and all that has been gained and mostly lost. Loved ones come and go, but the void is real. I just hope I loved and gave them all I could while possible. I pray I gave them all they needed and more. I want everyone to have open hearts and minds about the future. I include myself in this challenge, because I am slow to forgive and forget. Let us cling to the good, the blessings and the love. Love builds the soul and can strengthen. I am tired and emotional today, but optimistic for tomorrow and all that comes with day. I will be back and ready to Teltschik like it is. Goodnight.
Miles came into the room when he heard me crying and plopped down until I was ready to end the blog. Dogs are so damn intuitive. They just know when to intervene and be there for us humans.
Even clouds can't keep me from a beautiful orange sunset on my evening commute.
