The Question I'm Afraid to Ask

You Tube Tuesday #98

I love Basketball. I love watching it as much as I love playing it. This clip has some shots that I could never pull off.

And check out this B-Ball Badass in full effect on the court! Go Scott!

Enjoy.

(I grabbed this pic from Amy's Friday post. check it out, its a good read!)

Diabetes Outdoors

A while back I wrote about some amazing people I met on a retreat weekend and how they were starting their own non-profit organization.

Well I am pleased to announce that Diabetes Outdoors is here and is going to have its first event!

Diabetes Outdoors is a community organization that supports people living with diabetes by encouraging healthy lifestyles and building active communities, thereby enriching the quality of life and preventing related complications. That is how director Trevelyn Yahr describes this group.

You can view the flyer by clicking on the pictures below. If you are interested or have any questions, please contact the group using the number on the flyer. I know the website is under contruction but should be up soon.

I love this idea. A good time and some diabetes education. A great combination in a very cool package. So many think that because of diabetes they cannot go mountain climbing or hiking and that is just not true.

We can do all that stuff, we just have to be prepared and remember to have supplies that we may need.

Good luck Trevelyn on this hike! Hopefully I can make it to the next one.

It Was A Strange Morning

This morning was a weird one. I completely forgot that I had Diabetes or I should say, I was not thinking at all!

A Christmas Song - Ninja Style

We have had some rainy times over the Simmons home in the past few days. Plumbing, Electrical, and Car troubles to name a few. I am trying to keep up the holiday spirit the only way I know how.

I wrote my own version of a Christmas Song - Enjoy.

Christmas is coming and George is getting fat,
Did you hear that Santa’s Gmail has just been cyber hacked?
If you know of a good plumber then please send him my way,
If you don’t and come to visit, then please don’t stay.

Christmas is coming, the lights are on the tree,
You could see them so clearly with some electricity,
If you know an electrician, then please give him my name,
Cause it seems the house we moved to is super effing lame.

Christmas is coming, my face a constant frown,
And my wife’s flipping Kia just had to break down,
If you know a good mechanic, then please send him to me,
But I need one that can fix it, and do it all for free.

Christmas is coming, thank God for all my friends,
And who cares if I never seem to make dividends,
Sure things may be crappy, but I say “what the heck,”
Your comments, tweets, and emails help keep me in check.

Ahh, now I feel better.
