Eyes.

In a few hours, it will be time for my annual eye exam. Of all the doctors I see, this is the one I actually enjoy. The office waiting room is large, comfortable, and has its own theme, like a country Bed & Breakfast atmosphere. Usually, the wait is very short.


My friend Jo works there as a tech. She is diabetic, and it is the 10-15 minutes of prep time with her that I look forward to most. She tells me her problems, I tell her mine. Then we try to offer solutions or suggestions.

Hi folks!

OK, OK. I'm late. What else is new?


It took some time, but I have finally joined up with the rest of you. What am I, number 820? Anyway, I'm excited to be here, and I hope to make a lot more friends to go along with the great ones I already have from our respective blogs.


Please stop by and leave your two cents. I promise to give 'em back. And remember to check out www.GoDoATEST.com every day.


All the best!

That's good to hear! Yeah I'm really excited about the pump! I was amazed at how fast the process went, still amazed actually. Within a day and a half of contacting the company they had all my paperwork in and were shipping my pump out. Can't wait to just have it now!

Have a good Sunday Jeff!

I just love this site for that! I have to get it out of my system and have said things to the "healthy ppl" around here who have always went in the car to the ER not one of those lovely ambulances that don't even seem to know how to go slow like under 95 mph it just adds to my stress and what was even better was my veins are just about nonexsitant (whatever) and they had to try putting in those IV's about 6 times!!!! THAT HURTS!!! Then they have enough gall to tell you you need to get a portbeen there done that and almost died fron a really bad infection thanks to the port!!!!! I'm alot better now just had to get it off my chest!!! Sounds like you know what I'm talking about!!! The next time I'm in one I really hope I'm passed out so I won't have to remember it!!!! HA!!

Jeff,
Today I'm great!!! Got discharged from the hospital today at 12:00 and now I'm happy !!!!! After I leet you that message the other day I went to sleep and woke up to a really sick stomach very high (I'm gonna blame it on the pump not me) and would up taking one of those lovely highspeed ambulace rides with the lights going and the whole 9 yards. Really don't like them b/c as fast as they go they could have a wreak and killed me! Oh well life you know. HA!

hi Jeff & welcome. Might certain statements in your blog be used in a court of law? Lows while driving are not good, but no need to make it any worse.
