Andy Bell, Andy Bell, Andy had a great holiday.
Even with all the food, sugars were good most of the waaaay. Hey!
Now it's time to get back to work and focus on fitness for the day..
Here we go, do a curl and burn that fat away. Hey!

(To the tune of "Grandma Got Ran Over By a Reindeer")

Andy had one day of high sugars,
Eating his face off with a jello mold.
You can say there's no such thing as hyperglucose
But as for this diabetic, I am sold.

Last night, I happened to be in CVS, getting my thyroid medication (and gummy bears, as you do) and I saw these Tiny Lights and I thought "Perfect!" I grabbed a box and was on my way.
