Ufda, Ufda!!! *LOL* My Norweigian side is shining through ...

I SURELY have not been focusing on myself these days AND so need to :P

Why is it, when stress creeps up in life, I help everyone else first instead of little 'ole me? *Shake Of Head* I suppose it is part of being a parent. We took in my husband's adopted daughter. She's 17 years old, but needs a lot of guidance. We are forunate her maturity level is low so we can help mold her into a stand up young lady. We see such a bright future a head of her IF she ONLY grabs a hold of the opportunities she has with us.

Small of Short - she's had a difficult life & our household is a lot more family orientated. We help her with her school work, have gotten her into church youth groups, and are assisting her with obtaining her drivers license and hopefully getting a part time job for the first time in her life. Postive Influences.

So wrap up all those changes in our household - and Miss Kaci stays on top of her diabetic control but not to the extent she would really like to. Our fitness schedule has dimenished *Ugh* and our food choices are okay. The key is to keep moving forward & I will. This weekend is the American Diabetes Association Expo in Minneapolis. I am going. The hubby my join. Then again, I may leave him at home so I can also take in everything while I am there.

To a Brighter Tomorrow!
