Today was a special day for Jada and I. Erin was off with her dad so I decided to make up for Jada's father's lack of interest by doing whatever she wanted to do.
Bowling and ice cream.
Sounds good.
She was so elated and excited that she never sat still. She was off and running from the moment she woke up.
There were a few moments at the bowling alley that she seemed to be in stress overload. But we got through them. We played some arcade games after we bowled and she won 100 tickets on a spin. She screamed! Everyone turned and looked at her. Sometimes I wonder if people can tell she has difficulties. Sometimes I see what a struggle she is having at that moment and wonder if others can too. Most of the time, I don't worry about other people. But sometimes I do. I did today a few times.
Then came the ice cream. Her bg was already 365 but there was no going back. So she chose a waffle cone with sprinkles, a mixture of cotton candy and cheesecake ice cream, and gummy bears mixed in. I bolused for what I figured and away we went. She was a blue faced, blue hands mess. But she enjoyed it. She was a kid.
I definitely under bolused. What can I say? The SWAG (Scientific Wild Ass Guess) Method doesn't always work. I checked her for dinner time -- 522! That was after 5 units for the ice cream and 2.65 units for the bg.
She had a good day. We did everything she had requested.
But she was manic the entire day. She never sat still. Not even to eat dinner.
Thank goodness for sleep meds is all I can say!
