Daily Update, October 4, 2025

On Saturday after breakfast, I looked up high blood sugar and its treatment, because I'm suspicious that some of my recent tiredness is linked to that. It said the main treatment was to take your diabetes medication and drink more fluids, especially water, because dehydration makes it worse. I'm not supposed to increase my insulin or my Ozempic, and I have been taking them, so I tried to drink more tea and water and stay away from sugary stuff including the sore throat drops, though not entirely with them. I completely stayed away from a vanilla tea that I recently realized has dried honey in it. Too bad; it tastes pretty good. I hope my blood sugar is calming down now. {Smile}

Then a while after lunch my main nurse took me down to the ice cream parlor for a popsicle. They had chocolate fudge, but I remembered my current blood sugar and picked guava cream instead. I hope I'll be able to ease up after a while, but it is a nice flavor, too. I ate it as my main nurse took me to Prince Kuhio Plaza. There, we walked all the way around it, including through two non-anchor stores as well as both Macys, for somewhere around 40 minutes. Enjoy Comics is still cleaning up, though it's definitely emptier. My main nurse wondered if they only work on weekends or something. After the walk, my main nurse took me back home. {Smile}

Around researching high blood sugar, I caught up on some web comics. I also read some articles and watched some videos on the web and played Cross Stitch World. Then I began writing up Friday's daily update. I switched back to Cross Stitch World and articles and videos on the web during lunch. Then I finished Friday's daily update. Next, I checked on a busy conversation between Kitten and Dennis on Discord. It seemed our favorite "shard," the part of Homecoming where we all play City of Heroes: Homecoming, had been down, along with the smallest of the shards. However, an announcement from Homecoming made it look like they had been fixed shortly before we left for our outing. When I got back, I went to City of Heroes: Homecoming pretty quickly. No, our shard and the smallest shard hadn't been fixed, though other four were all up. I looked for my one mid-level character among the characters I'd barely begun on other shards. I found the mid-level character on the most popular shard. Then Dennis said hi. He was on a much less used shard. We debated him joining me or me joining him. I wanted to move the character, but he insisted I make a new character. I did and ran the tutorial as he said. I was just starting to hunt for a badge easiest to get inside the tutorial when I got called to dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back to that new character on the less used shard. I didn't find Dennis, so I left a note for him on Discord. I went back to the character and began to hunt for that badge again. Then Pierogies said hi. We chatted, and I was so happy to learn he's having a good day! I haven't seen him much recently, and think many days are less than good. He wanted to get together on the most popular shard where that mid-level character is. I happily switched, and we teamed up. He was only a bit higher than me. He invited me to his supergroup, and we ran a mission or two. Then we started to work on a badge that we were both missing that improves stats. That's when Dennis said hi. He joined us, and we all worked on that badge until the shard we all usually use came back up. I asked about switching, but both Pierogies and Dennis left for bed instead, since it was late in their time zone (or zones; I'm not quite sure if they're int eh same or neighboring time zones). Just after they left, Dr. Faustus said hi from our usual shard. So, I joined him on the character I've been teaming with him so much on. We did team up and finished the story arc we were working on. Then we started another story arc, stopping when Dr. Faustus had to leave. Next, I did a little storage. After that, I began notes in this with a break for Cross Stitch World, and a couple of breaks for auction house and storage on that mid-level character on the most popular shard and crafting on a couple of characters on my usual shard. Then I finished up notes in this and ended with the Lord's Prayer and Forward Day by Day. {Smile}
