Good morning!!!!

[jinman]

It's a humid morning here with the temperature hovering around 80 F. The half-dozen hummingbirds out my office door are scuffling over the feeder and chirping like crazy. I got my garden well picked over yesterday morning, so this morning it will be time to start making tomato sauce. I slept in this morning because I didn't get home until midnight and into bed at 1:00 AM after going to the Texas Rangers' ballgame last night.

Got pretty chilly overnight, down to 81 at 5:30 this morning! 85 now with a heat index of 93, chance of T-storms today.

Buppies, you can get cramps from low electrolytes as well as low hydration. If you don't like sports drinks you can get packets to add to water. Also bananas help also.

Great ideas but diabetes doctor says no bananas and sports drinks drive my sugar levels up thanks for suggestions. Over past three years have had two ambulance rides and been admitted to hospital twice with blood pressure of 60 over 40 and dehydrated this time only dehydrated

Buppies, check out the electrolyte packets, most don't have sugar and many don't have artificial sweeteners either. Cramps after overnight re-hydration usually point to low electrolytes.

Seriously, I eat bananas with little effect on glucose level. They do make very low carb sports drinks now, I use those also.

So I guess beer is out for hydration? bummer.

Beer is in for dehydration though! So if you're retaining fluid, drink a 12 pack!
