Hi everyone, kind of feeling down for no specific reason. I am truly blessed in so many ways.
I guess when my husband is down, I get depressed as well.
I haven't even shopped for Thanksgiving yet. I usually get a turkey, but I know that I have a turkey breast already in the frig. It's just my husband and I, and he doesn't like turkey or any poultry dark meat. He did once try my turkey when I did a breast in the slow cooker, and he admitted it "was not too bad".
I just don't know what to do this year that won't be too much or not appreciated. I even suggested we go out to dinner, but he didn't want to go.
Everything lately feels like a competition, and he acts like a sore loser. The point of contention is that I am a newly diagnosed diabetic type 2, and I am working hard to reduce my blood sugar. He says he is trying, but his is still mostly in the 200s which is too high. Mine is still too high, but it is coming down into the mid to low 100s, depending on when I test and what I ate, etc.
