I had a nice day today, but didn't get to the crafts show, maybe tomorrow.

I got my hair cut at 8:00 and then Gary and I went out to breakfast and we had a nice time. Then I went to Walmart and the grocery store. Afterwards I did a little shopping for me, but didn't buy anything. I even got to take a little nap this afternoon!

We went over to the kids for supper tonight and then my daughter and I took Emma and Abigail to Macy's for the lighting of the Christmas tree. We knew there were going to be a zillion people there (it's an outdoor shopping center) so we waited till about an hour after the lighting ceremony - but it was still mobbed. We got there in time to see the fireworks, and that was fun. Emma loved it.

Then we shopped in Macy's and my daughter found lots of things. She bought 3 dress shirts for her husband, 2 shirts for her and 2 for her 13 year old daughter for $100. That's pretty good at Macy's. Lots of things were 50-70% off and then there was a 15% coupon for tonight only.

I'm going to try to get to the craft show tomorrow!

Oh yes, Diana, you need to carry hard candy or M&M (that's what I carry for Gary) in your purse. Anytime you exercise more than usual, e.g., walk around shopping, your blood sugar is going to drop more quickly. In fact, when Gary is going to be shopping or doing any physical activity - he takes 1/2 less of his insulin - so you might think about taking 1/2 of your medicine when you are going to be doing lots of walking. Anyway, you will begin to recognize more quickly when your sugar is getting low and then just eat some candy and you can ward off the low sugar episodes.
