Good morning, all my LL homies!!! Even though it's as hot as hades here already, I had to have lots of
this morning because I only got three hours of sleep. I worked for 14 hours yesterday!!! And then had to get up at 4 a.m. this morning to start all over again!! Champ was awesome last night!!! He was very hungry ALL THE TIME, but he hasn't seen consistent low numbers like that in a while so he's going to have to get used to it all over again. When I got up at 4 this morning, he was hungry and I, because of my sleep-deprived fog, had a complete brain cramp and gave him FF instead of some chicken breast. I'm pretty sure his +11 and AMPS are partially food influenced, though a bounce can't be excluded because Champ does have tigger tendencies!! 
I sure hope this increase does the trick for him. I now know he doesn't do well with 0.25u decreases in quick succession. If (please God) he starts to give me consistent green numbers, I'm going to try to manipulate them with food to try to keep him between 50-99, not letting him earn reductions until he has gotten used to being in those numbers and his body has adapted, and then gradually let him earn a reduction and shave the dose down instead of doing the full 0.25u. Maybe this way, the next time he earns a reduction, he'll be able to keep it!!! If anyone has any words about this plan, whether for or against, I'd love to hear it!!!
And props to my daughter who stayed up for me until 2:30 this morning so I could get those measly three hours of sleep!!! And she put in a ten-hour day at work herself!!!
I'll have to do condos later. I'm so tired right now and I need to catch a quick 15-minute nap before starting on my next account!!
