2025 Five people were killed and dozens injured including three critically, and hundreds are displaced in a fire at a four-story apartment building in Milwaukee

In bed at 9, up at 3:50, 2 low glucose alarms: 0410 124/73/59 105 204.0; 39/31/48/39, Brrrr! Sunny and cold.

Morning meds at a.m., half dose of Bisoprolol at 6 a.m.  

Glucose behving wildly yesterday and last night.  Multiple low glucose warnings, rapid dips in glucose readings.  Bad sensor or something somatic???

Breakfast with CBG at Maxfield's from 9: 25 till 11:10. Much conversation about families, life, books, friends, old age, upcoming surgery, and other stuff.  A blessing.

I read "And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer" by Fredrik Backman, recommended by CBG.  Very enjoyable, touching.
