 Another boring day.  It's enough to make a person take up drink.  But no, I will limit myself to 3 or 4 ounces of wine that I usually have.  Now that my blindness is getting close it is taking some effort not to get depressed.  Which reminds me that since Kay has been taking the anti-depressant she has not had a headache.  

The other day the diabetes doctor suggested I make a change in my insulin consumption which seems to have worked enough that I dont need to check my blood sugar as frequently.  This means I also do not have to exercise as much.  But in the 3 or 4 days I have not been exercising I noticed a big reduction in my muscle tone.  I seem to be much weaker when I try to walk.  I wanted to take Kay for a walk in the wheel chair but I seemed to be too weak so I did not.  Instead I did my exercising on the 2 wheel scooter.  It may not seem like much exercise but it really seems to work.  So back to exercising.  Either scooter of modified push ups.  I did not know lack of exercise would be so evident so fast.  A way to get over depression is to get the mind working.
