Happy Diabetic Birthday to Me

Happy Diabetic Birthday to Me (and Happy real birthday to my Nanny).

I was diagnosed with this shitty disease 26 years ago today.  It pisses me off to even think about how long that is.  I have an enormous amount of anger towards this disease, but I'm saddened by the fact that I try and ignore it to the point that I am so far behind of some of the advances that have happened with this disease in the last few years.  People talk about all these new gadgets and it blows my mind!  I have had it by far longer than anyone else I have ever even heard of, but I'm still stuck in the dinosaur ages with how I live with it.  Don't get my wrong, I've tried many things and hated just about every single one of them...(like the pump, ugh), but then there is now a glucose meter that plugs into you!  HELLO, I need one!

No need to sit here and write depressed all day Krista, you've got munchkins to take care of!

(Ding Dong)  Doorbell...  Look what the hubby sent because he knew today was going to be hard for me!  I sure do love him!
