I think one should take water pills as we call them in the morning. I suppose it is pretty obvious the more one drinks in the evening the more likely one will need the toilet throughout the night. I cannot think it would do anyone much good if they downed 6 pints and as some one I know and claim to have slept through. Perhaps that encourages a Beer Belly.

I too occasionally yell at the Universe - all I've gotten in response is a condescending smile...

because I have chronic severe reflux my Dr told me not to drink coffee. Well since the only way Wiley can lure me out of bed each day is to whisper "Coffee's made," I have to have my morning coffee. I quite often sneak a second one in the afternoon. I will not drink decaff. I have been buying tins of half tea and lemon. However as delicious as it is, I think it is laden with preservatives and artifial crap and I better make my own and cool it in the fridge. Goodness but we sound like oldies here.

This whole thing is totally me.  I'm afraid I rebel, stay up all night drinking coffee (the real coffee) take lisinopril along with other meds, visit the bathroom often, sleep when I'm supposed to be awake doing errands and chores, never apologize for messy house or frazzled looks if someone shows up and never, never anymore, go where I don't want to go.

I am totally with you, resenting that this diabetes, these creaky knees seem to be controlling my life... I have long, long resented anyone trying to control me! The twist is that if I don't control the diabetes, it really will control me. So, it makes me control it... 

I think we just want to be youngsters again.
