You guys aren't getting the temps that are HOT for a day or 2 then those really bad tornado warnings and strong thunderstorms that have lots of wind in them and they have uprooted some trees around here along with a few tornado's? Oh yeah then you have to have the heater on after the rain b/c it has frosted again? NOW I want to live more in East TN!

Welllll : Everybodys diabetes does different things to them. Like my dr said YEARS ago "Nobody is a textbook case of diabetes" meaning we all get affected differently with it.

That carp is swimming somewhere in the TN river. I won't fish or get in a boat b/c ofit. It scared the crap out of me!!!!!!!!!

When I get an infection I start running high but the antibiodics bring me back down after the infection clears.

My boat frea came from when I was a kid (about maybe 7 or 8) my dad had an old alumin boat and we went fishing in the TN river (mind you I didn't swim then or now!) We were in the middle of the river and he caught this gigantic carp (I think it was) she started flaying back and forth (while laying eggs in the boat) the boat was about to turn over and here I am BEGGING him to throw the biggest fish he ever caught back in the river. I won b/c I started crying but he never let me live that one down LOL!

Antibiodics are OK with my bs's I guess. (so far so good) It's mainly the pain meds that make me go DKA. Diabetes is different for all huh?

Yeppers let's reserve that plain now. Only thing? put a blindfold over my eyes and tell me we're going for a ride in the car! LOL! Another thing I don't get along well (at all) with is boats! LOL!

No way is DKA fun at all!!!! SEAGATOR lives in St. Augestine (? on spelling there oldest city in the US anyway) and he said this morning it was only 34 there so don't seem like FL is the answer I STILL say the Bahamas! LOL!
