Yesterday I didn't feel good starting in the early afternoon. Was trying to figure out how to describe how I was feeling in case it continued and I wanted to see my doctor. I got on Google and looked up "light headed". No, that wasn't it. I didn't feel dizzy or like I was going to faint or off balance. Looked up "woozy". My mom used to say she felt woozy. That wasn't it. Then I thought maybe low sugar, or high sugar or maybe because my Vitamin D level was so low. Thought about my thyroid. But my vitamin D levels have been low for years. I'm always tired, but yesterday was different. This morning I woke up and felt better. Felt alert. Then checked "not alert" on Google. It gave me all kinds of information on lethargy, something I didn't look up. I think that was it. I think it may be dehydration or my constant insomnia, so lack of good sleep. I have to remember to drink water, and just forget alot. I've been drinking Crystal Lite raspberry ice tea because it's easy for me to drink alot of it. But it has artificial sweetner in it so don't want it all the time.

I'm feeling better today, but started getting tired around 11am. I've been up since 5. I haven't gotten in many steps today. The last 2 weeks my goal has been to get to 11,000 steps by 1pm and then not worry about it. Then I usually add another 2000-3000 steps by the end of the day. Today it's after 3 and I am about 7500 steps. Just like drinking water it's something I have to focus on.

I had a hard boiled egg for breakfast. I read there aren't many food sources for Vitamin D, but there is some in egg yolks. I also read that to get it from the sun to spend at least 20 minutes a day out in the sun, best around noon. No wonder so many people have the deficiency, we've learned from an early age to use sunscreen and avoid sun exposure. I manage about 7 or 8 minutes in the sun on the deck but my skin is so dry anyway I don't really need to add to that problem. But I am remembering to take the supplements every morning.

Didn't manage to lose a pound during the week, which is my goal. But I was afraid of about a 2 pound gain. My lesson is I need to stick to plan 100% which is difficult. This week will be tough - I am going to meet a friend at Red Robin for lunch on Thursday. First time there since Covid. It's one of my favorite places to eat. Planning on just one meal for the day and will TRY to skip the Coke

Didn't check my weight this morning. I checked it a day or two ago and it showed I was up 2 pounds. I had coffee this morning and forget to weigh myself. I have been walking at least 13,000 steps a day and I still probably gained since last Sunday! I think it was the can of cashews that it took me 3 days to finish, although not a huge can. I don't log everything I eat when I know I am over my calories for the day. I log mostly to make sure I am getting enough protein. I did have one day when I had 3 pieces of bread, one at a time, when I felt starving in the late afternoon. With peanut butter on it. I have to try to just never go off my WOE, but I can only eat just so much fruit and vegetables.

I double checked my lab results. It shows a major Vitamin D deficiency. I am not used to seeing lab results for Vitamin D and there appear to be 3 different tests.
1 Vitamin D, 25-OH, Total.
Reference range >29.9 ng/ml Mine is low at 18.4

2 Vitamin D, 25-OH D3 mine is 17.2 with no reference range

3 Vitamin D, 25-OH D2 mine is 1.2 with no reference range. I googled it and found a reference range of 20-40

All the numbers are low. My doctor said to take Vitamin D3 supplements. The D2 levels seem really, really low. I think D2 is from food, and D3 is from sunlight. I do spend sometime outside but like most of us, try to protect the skin from the sun with sunscreen or long sleeves. Need to google if Vitamin D can be obsorbed through the scalp.

I always have to be worried about something. I forget to take pills sometimes because there is nothing I have to take daily. I counted the Vitamin D tablets I have left and it looks like I've taken over 30 of them which isn't bad since my doctor's appointment was about a month ago. I've put them in a pill box which has slots for each day of the week and a.m. and p.m

I may call my doctor's office to ask about the really low D2 number and to see when I can get it re-tested.

I made a long journal entry yesterday then later deleted it because after reading it I sounded like a raving lunatic. Just ranting about things. I had the new Covid vaccine scheduled for Tuesday and woke up to a message from CVS that they had cancelled it. I really want the vaccine before my trip to Oregon in a couple weeks. I had an appointment at the hospital, which is why I scheduled the vaccine for the same day. If I had to drive for a half hour to the next town I wanted to get as much done as possible. Scheduled a flu vaccine instead. Got to town early and looked at mattresses - I want to buy 2 new beds when I move to Oregon and wanted an idea of the cost. I haven't bought a bed in about 15 years. Getting rid of the beds where I am now. Thought about buying at least one bed here since I have to hire a moving company for the stuff I am taking. The sales person reminded me there's no sales tax in Oregon so if the prices for the mattresses are about the same maybe waiting is better. Then I went to one of the biggest thrift stores in the area to ask about donating some furniture. They said they wouldn't take my futon because it doesn't have a mattress and no one will buy it. Also didn't want my entertainment center because it is pretty much obsolete with a space for a 25 inch big old TV that no one has anymore. So that upset me - can't give away some pretty nice furniture. The entertainment center was over $800 more than 30 years ago and is in excellent condition. Since I was so early and still had 45 minutes to kill before my first appointment I went to Jimboy's and got 2 tacos and a coke. It was unplanned and threw my eating for the day totally off. But the tacos were good and I should have skipped the coke, but enjoyed it

Today was better. Someone had sent me a message from Nextdoor, very interested in the futon. We have exchanged 2 or 3 messages but nothing today. This has happened several times with furniture I've listed on that site. People express interest than never arrange to come see the item. If she doesn't follow up in a day or two I will probably call Junk King or G.I. Junk to haul it away. They both say they will try to find homes for things thrown out where there is a need. Got a message on my phone that my mammogram from the other day is normal so I don't have to worry about that. I have a history of breast cancer with my mom and one of my sisters having had it.

Got in over 15,000 steps both today and yesterday. Really short walks with Bobby, probably no more than 2000-3000 steps but I've been doing so much around the house and yard and the steps add up. I set a goal of 1000 steps each hour until I reach 11,000 for the day. That keeps me moving for hours around the house doing all kinds of things I am good about putting off. I'm doing a challenge for 30 miles in a week. I've read 10,000 steps is about 5 miles, but I'm using 11k for 5 miles since I probably have shorter strides because of shorter legs than most people.

Weather is getting cooler, little by little. It's dark now at 6am when I try to feed the dog and cat and give Marco his insulin shot. Try to wait until it gets light out to let Bobby out. This morning around 5:30 Bobby wanted out, I turned on all the deck lights and went to open the door and saw the little skunk was on the deck looking for bird food that had dropped from the feeders so told Bobby he had to wait.

Didn't do too bad with my eating. Finally made the stir fry I kept putting off all week - I'll eat everything in the house before I get to the vegetables. Used asparagus, brussels sprouts, mushroom, and onions. Also had a 2nd serving of the parmesan chicken that is pre made at the grocery store and I just bake it. The package I bought has enough for 3 meals so I'll finish it tomorrow. Had blackberries again. They are huge! Twice as big as normal and really sweet.

Now I'm ready to go to sleep. Was up at 3am yesterday and 5am today. I think I am still tired from yesterday.

I am feeling so bad and guilty. Yesterday I let Bobby outside and he's usually out just long enough.....maybe 1 minute. But I let him out and quickly went to do something else. Then I forgot about him! I was in the guest room watching the local news and never gave Bobby a 2nd thought. It was at least an hour, probably closer to an hour and a half when I went to see where he was. He usually lays on top of the chair or sofa in the family room or the futon in the living room. He wasn't in either spot so I went to the master bedroom and he was standing at the door, panting. There is a small fenced in area, fenced with wire, almost like deer fencing. There was a deer and at least one turkey on the other side of the fence. Usually he chases them off but they were watching him and me at the door. Maybe they were concerned for him. There is no water on the deck or in that area. Luckily yesterday was a mild day, didn't even reach 80 but still, that was way, way too long for him to be outside. He doesn't bark to let me know he wants to come inside. Every other dog in the neighborhood does (My neighbor's dog has barked for 30 minutes or longer, once at 2am) but not Bobby. Don't know how to teach him. After I got him in, he didn't want to drink water, thought that would be the first thing he would do. He did eventually. I felt so bad, i gave him his dinner early and then gave him his regular dinner later. I tickled him for hours and kept apologizing to him. I went out and made sure there is water on the deck. I don't know why he doesn't think to bark. I got him as a puppy and had been worried about house training him. But it was the easiest thing ever. Once I started taking him outside - usually 5 or 6 times a day, he never had an accident in the house. But, he never lets me know he has to go outside. He will hold it forever until I ask him "do you have to go outside? or go potty?". Then he will run around in circles and run to the door. I have to remember to ask him.
