Sunday April 18 Day 47

I sure wish my old body with stabilize itself. This morning I set a new low for my blood sugars. Last evening the cook was preparing the evening meal and the smell made me nauseous. That is the first time that has happened since the first week here. I asked him to fix me another bowl of oatmeal instead of the normal rice, dahl and veggies. I must have needed the regular stuff to keep my blood sugars at the correct levels. Though I had very low blood sugars I feel great this morning. Looks like a periodic day of rest is definitely in order because my mind and body generally feel good.

I plan to tape the “eyebrow” trail this afternoon. This narrow trail has had a lot of safty features added taken out some of the sport of traversing it. What is interesting are the rock cliffs at the far end of the trail. The forest is missing and is replaced by rock formations. It is unusual for this area to have open ground. Most of the ground is covered by rather dense forests. You cannot see very far unless there happens to be an opening in the trees. My taping of the eyebrow was cancelled because of clouds. This day is going to last for ever.

I did the laundry this morning. By 2 pm it was dry. The heat of the sun and the slight breeze helped. The first time I did the laundry it took 2 full days for the t-shits to get dry.

The electricity is shut off here for 2 hours each day between 1 and 3 pm. (That does not include the times it is just OUT at any time of the day or night.) Tourist season is here so evidently the electricity will not be shut off for 1 - 3 on the weekends. The electricity is off from 9 to 11 am instead on Saturday and Sunday.
