My day(s) in a nutshell

Posted on August 12, 2010 at 8:51am 9 Comments

It seems my my life these days can get pretty repetitive with D. I'm not complaining at all. My BG is good and stable, I'm healthy and active, and overall have a very good life. But I have started to notice how certain tasks dominate my life. You can swap out different activities for work on the weekends, but for the most part my day(s) are pretty static:



5:30 Wake

5:31 Test BG (89 sweet)

5:45 Test cat (145 sweet)

5:46 Make breakfast for cat, give insulin

5:50 Make… Continue

Swimming Faster than Sugar

Posted on June 16, 2010 at 3:30pm 14 Comments



So I am very new to all the D stuff, but just when I think I am getting a handle on it, I am thrown a curve that reminds me of just how out of control this disease can be. Don’t get me wrong, after spending a lot of time on here the last month or so, I think I am pretty lucky to be able to manage my blood sugar with some pretty standard schedules in both food and exercise.…

it's a good day today. :) We have a short stop at the 9th Circuit Court of Appeal and then on to the Supreme Court. Reading the order is delicious. The proponents put on a case taht was ultimately not supported and their experts they withdrew before opening statements. It is going to be a very tense ride when we get to the Supreme Court.
