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 have warm words on a cold evening,
a full moon on a dark night,
and a smooth road all the way to your door.

So this is what dyin feels like…
“Get up baby, you didn’t take your meds yet”, Lisa woke me up at 1 AM Wednesday, I had fallen asleep because I was sooo tired and feeling a little sick that day. It was my last day at work for the year and I had just made my presentation in front of the certification board – They loved my project (they’d better friggen! worked all year on that project and had lost a ton of sleep worrying about it). My boss took me out…

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”?
Okay how about next week!
The guys working on the project asked me (at a very late stage) if I wanted to work on this particular design, and, oh yea go to Ireland a week from the day to present and do some planning and miscellaneous site work.
Never let them see you smile or sweat at work: I said “okay” but was already doing the end-zone dance of…

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

PUMPING CHINA
hi all,
Taking my pump to China this summer was an experience. 14 hours in the air left me dizzy and my butt semipermanently paralyzed. My “big plan” for a disaster was an extra AAA battery, a bottle of Lantus and a handful of syringes.

Can I come to the bbq? That sounds so good! My husband??? Well let's just say he thinks he's dying!!! GRRRRRRR!! He will live but if he don't stop saying get me this get me that I will clobber him! Now he dosen't like the tea "It taste like canalope make a new pitcher!" OK can I do that while Amarie wallers all over me? Thank God above Savannah's asleep!!! HA!! Gotta go make the tea! Hubby made Amarie mad at him earlier by getting on to her so she won't go to him!!!
Haha my music taste is a bit all over the place...I love a little bit out of each type of music, but at the minute I've got a real country thing going on, to the point that I'm probably keeping amazon.com up and running because I keep buying cds from America that aren't available here lol.
I've got no holiday plans unfortunately, I've been working for the summer holidays, and although I finish the job next week, I'm starting training for voluntary work that I'm going to do with the Alzheimer's society and with a kids' helpline...then I'm back to university. It's all work, work, work!
I hope you get another trip planned sometime soon. Once I've graduated and get part of my student debt paid off, I plan to make sure to travel at least a couple of times a year!
Where are you at today? That's right your still in VA right??? I meant to tell you no fair on that weather in NJ but I have to admit I done that a little last week with the windows. It fell down into the upper and mid 80's so up went the windows!!!!
He had me worried!!!! Now I've got to get him to start eating that blan diet and he just thought he was having fun with the diet he had for his heart attacks! HA!! This will be more than a challenge, you have to know this man and his food! No spicy for you! HA!!
