OK...so your comment made me tear up because ... I really feel ya on that one! but ya know what......tomorrow is another day right? and we have to keep pressin' on although hard as that might be sometimes

I know sometimes I can be such a bear...not to the point of being abusive or anything but I just either turn myself off to kids or hubby completely or I'm a crank-ass and not patient whatsoever.....and of course with the stress comes higher numbers on the machine too.....and then the GUILT oy vey the GUILT comes and that's the worst part.....then of course that gets you thinking inside your own brain about what a dang jerk you feel like you have been ....and so what do you do.....I just go in, give my hubby and hug/kiss and tell him I know I'm a pain the butt but somehow you still love me......hug and kiss on the kids more and start all over again......

some of it is time management too....it's so hard to be a mom in every direction and still try to put yourself top priority.... that is my main goal this year is to TRY and put myself first again ..... we'll see how long that lasts LOL

Okay I'm wayyyyyy rambling, probably not making sense lol and I'm sending BIG HUGS from california!!!!!

Thanks for your kind words!!

Would you like me to send you some TuDiabetes 4x6 cards that you could give to people you run into or maybe share them with RN's and CDE's you meet with?

I love the "Howie" story. My girls say things like that too. My favorite is "I want bessert (dessert)."

I had a post awhile back asking for name suggestions, and Rickina came up with the winning names, Thelma and Louise. I figured since they're with me through thick and thin, I better give them names. My family knows them by those names too!

Thank you very much for the kind words. I have always been taught by the good book " Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Here is wishing you and your family a blessed week.

Welcome Windy. I am new to the Dexcom too, and have been getting about 14 days out of each sensor. Seven seemed like such a boring name for my sensor, so I named it Louise, and my pump Thelma!

I checked out your blog and you have a beautiful family. I am also a busy mom to four kids, 3-16!

Introduction...

Hi! I'm Windy and I'm a 26 year old SAHM. I've played piano since I was 6 and teach piano lessons also! I've had Type 1 diabetes since I was 7 years old. I use an Animas 2020 and a Dexcom 7 CGMS to help control my blood sugars. I love writing, running, singing, creating, cooking, traveling, and making new friends!! My favorite TV shows are Heroes, House, LOST, and Grey's Anatomy. You can also find me at:
