Tuesday, October 14, 2008 at 8:38AM “It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures” – Alanis Morissette
Isn’t it ironic….dontcha think?
Monday, October 13, 2008 at 10:23AM My vlog post the other day was pretty pathetic. I watch it and see a guy who got himself into this mess and that is the thing. I am not sure I would do things differently. I enjoy being busy and having stuff going on. So I will do my best to not complain about the things I choose to do.
The bigger problem is when things I do not choose are added to that list of “to do’s” really gets to me. Not leaving room for the unexpected is my curse.
This weekend was busy but some really cool things went on. One was my cousin’s surprise birthday party. I also attended the last team meeting for the retreat I am working at this weekend. My best friend had a birthday party. Gillian’s soccer team lost but played very well on Saturday morning. George’s high school band took 1st place in their first Field Show competition of the year! And all of that happened before Sunday.
It was good.
Sunday morning was tough. When my alarm went off I was in a very deep sleep. I do not remember the last time I woke up so tired. I got to church early and took care of all the stuff I needed to. My BG was high like it was all weekend so I corrected and kept on going.
Our church service was very eventful with 4 baptisms and receiving of some new members. Now, you all know I am a softy. I get choked up at telephone commercials and Hallmark cards. I am weird like that.
I realized that baptisms turn on the flood gates in my tear glands consistently more often then any other ceremony. Weddings? Sometimes but baptisms win hands down.
Anyhow, during the sermon our Pastor asked us, “what does Heaven look like to you?” And he explained that heaven is not necessarily everything we want in life but an overabundance of what we need. He talked more and more about how we should live and what not and frankly I tuned out and was stuck on that question.
What does Heaven look like to you?
I have one hope for heaven.
No diabetes.
Saturday, October 11, 2008 at 8:11PM Diabetes is affected by every aspect of my life. Stress is proven to be a difficult one to overcome since life is busy.
This may go down as the worst Ninjabetic Vlog ever. I apologize upfront.
Enjoy?

Wednesday, October 8, 2008 at 9:02AM I had to record the debate last night and watch it after my band practice at church. I finally went to bed after 12:30 and am now thoroughly exhausted. I, like so many, cannot stop following the campaigns and listening to every sound bite I can get my hands on. I am both excited and terrified for Election Day to come.
Hey, did you hear who Esquire Magazine chose as the “Sexiest Woman Alive?” Well it is the one and only cured diabetic we know, Halle “freaking” Berry. I guess it is sexy when you can wean yourself off of a drug like Insulin. I feel so unsexy right now as I bolus for the rise in BG due to how sick she makes me. Man I need a nap.
Google rocks. We know this. But do you how much more kick assiness they would achieve if they made a Google Doodle for World Diabetes Day? Click here and sign the petition. This could reach so many and really raise awareness around the world! Be sure and ask everyone you know to sign! If you don’t know what a Google Doodle is, click here and check them out.
And lastly, for this very slow moving Humpday, in case you missed my TV premiere on dLife click here and check out what a good disc golfer I am. Oh yeah, and I don't smoke! :)
I must tell you, everytime I watch this I get more uncomfortable. It is weird to see yourself on the boob tube.
hee hee, I said boob.
More tomorrow, I promise.
