I bet you are good at keeping things organized!
My problem is...even with my reading glasses, it takes me a long time to decipher the expiration dates. So, it takes me a long time. Then I do my best to clean out the glass bottles and recycle them. Sometimes though, depending on what is in the bottle/jar, I end up just throwing the bottle out if it is too hard to clean out. That's rare though.
I don't know how I would feel about cleaning out someone else's fridge. I give you high praise for doing so.
Yes, the glucose is very frustrating. It messes with my emotions. I do my best to roll with it, but sometimes it hits me: "This is some serious shit and I better get my act together". My a1C is pretty good though, and my practitioner says I'm doing good, so...I'll take it. The correct mindset for this is "This thing wants me dead, and I have to slow it down".
It's the lows that are really bad for you. Being high for a few hours won't kill you...but being low for a few hours can kill you pretty quickly.
Whew!
Thanks, Niagara.
