Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at 8:13AM As a kid, I watched a lot of game shows. Especially each summer and one of my all time favorites is “The Price is Right.” This clip is from a commercial for a video game version but it features my favorite Price is Right game!
Enjoy!

FYI - I am officially a spaz in this episode.
Thursday, October 2, 2008 at 8:42AM So today is my 18th anniversary of my diagnosis.
I am kind of numb about it actually. I have gained so much weight that I feel kind of down about that but the dLife thing on Sunday has me kind of pumped up (no pun. Really.) so I am at a happy medium.
Diabetes sucks but it is not all bad.
There are lots of GREAT THINGS that I am HONESTLY thankful for that Diabetes has given to me.
Friends.
Sara, Scott J, Kerri, Nicole, Bernard, Landileigh, Julia, Hannah, Vivian, Manny, Amy, Kelly, Gina, Allison, Scott S, Kathy, Amylia, Araby62, Jill, Chris, Cara, Lea, Matt, Bad Decision Maker, Karen, Shannon, Gaelyne, Molly, Windy, Art Sweet, Lee Ann, Heidi, Donna, Collen, Sandra, Chrissie, Drea, Chris, Floreska, tmana, are all my friends and so are many more that I know at this time I am forgetting.
Please know that each one of you makes it easier to check my blood sugars each day. Each of you help me to continue on this bumpy road to weight loss and lower A1C's. Each one of you has a special place in my heart and I am sure always will.
It is strange that I have met only 3 of you in real life but since we all share something so personal I feel like we are all old friends.
My hope is that all of you know me through this blog. I do try my best to open myself up and put all of my "stuff" out there for you all to see. Not only for your feedback to help me out but also to hopefully provide further proof that you are not alone.
I love you all and thank you for your friendship.
Sincerely,
George.
Wednesday, October 1, 2008 at 11:17AM Despite all of the bad news about our economy right now I have some exciting news I have been looking forward to sharing for a while now.
I AM GONNA BE AN UNCLE!!!!
But you say, “dude, you already are an uncle” and yes that is true but my youngest, baby, littlest sister (one that is the same height as me and could easily kick my butt) is pregnant with her first baby and we could not be more excited! Her and her husband have gone through some rough attempts in the past so we were so happy to hear that she is now 14 weeks along and “Baby” is doing great!
Here is the thing, I am posting about this because not only do I want to share the news with all of you but I am asking for your good thoughts, prayers, vibes, energy, or whatever you want to send her way. We want to make sure that this Baby is healthy and happy and ready to meet his Ninja Uncle!
The other night my daughter Gillian was in bed saying her prayers and ended her prayer with, “and God please take care of Auntie Jen and her baby since you have been doing such a good job so far.”
Amen to that.
