Some Irish Wishes for my Friends
When the road you walk is dark.
May you always hear,
Even in your hour of sorrow,
The gentle singing of the lark.
When times are hard may hardness
Never turn your heart to stone,
May you always remember
when the shadows fall—
You do not walk alone.
May you live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live.
May you have warm words on a cold evening,
a full moon on a dark night,
and a smooth road all the way to your door.
Gaelic ------------------------------English
Go mbeannai Dia duit ---------May God Bless You
Nár lagaí Dia do lámh! --------May God not Weaken Your Hand (More power to you!)

Pumping Ireland - Spring 2007
“Sweetie, do you wanna go to Ireland with me”?
“Yea, sure” she replied and looked at me as if to say “in which century”?

Never let them see you smile or sweat at work: I said “okay” but was already doing the end-zone dance of

HI
Hi my name is Joe
I have been T1 a long time (jeez about 30 years now) but I have only been treating myself well since late 2000. I’ve only been talking about my diabetes since 2003 and I started looking at support groups and other stuff this year.

The medicine ball
Ok, ok! so the endocrinologist visit went okay. Thyroid is good, cholesterol is so good she said “we don’t need to keep checking this” A1c……….. you know, I don’t like when they announce the winner of the beauty pageant – all that bullshit about the 3rd runner up and then the long drum roll… it’s buildup, it’s buzz

- I know you can't wait to see him! Lisa's going to have some "weird" feelings now..........She's so close. I only made it either time to 7 1/2 months but when Amber was carring Savannah sh came in here one morning about 2 AM and fussed because she couldn't lay down and get confortable then about 4 days later Savannah was here by c-section! You just gotta wait with the natural stuff til he decides to come...Me well like I said I only made it to 7 1/2 months then had a c-section myself, so I kinda knew when they would be here! HA!!
