Woke up a little after 2AM and knew something was wrong as soon as my eyes opened. I grabbed my phone and my Continuous Glucose Monitor and headed for the bathroom. From that time until now at 3:30 I've been in the can. My body is trying to get rid of something I ate and my blood glucose level is through the roof. Sickness tends to cause serious insulin resistance in Type 1 diabetics. I've got my BG coming down and it'll be at a more normal level within an hour or so. I'm hydrating hard to flush any ketones out of my system along with whatever the pathogen is that I ate.
We put the finishing touches on our Chicago area project yesterday so luckily today's work will be easy. If the equipment train shows up on time we'll probably load our machines up and chain them down for the train to haul them out to Barstow, California for the next project. That project goes along I-15 from Yermo to Las Vegas and ends at the strip.
After Monday I'm not going to worry about it though. I saved all but 12 hours of my vacation so I'm covered for the rest of the year, and our first scheduled day of work is going to be January 8th. I'm looking forward to over a month of nothing but me, my kid, my family, and some time with a little fireball of a redheaded nurse I met a couple months ago...
