checking in

I got through Thanksgiving! hubby was off...eating pies etc and I noticed a difference...now that he is almost always in the good blood reading range I saw how he was back to the high sugar behaviors...mind games...mean spirited at times...don't miss that...he is back to better choices this week so yeah!

how are you all doing?

how are you?

I miss my gals...how are you all doing? Things are good for the most part...yes, i am still married to a man who has diabetes and it is a daily reality for both of us, but the managing part has been going well...he takes care of his pills, ordering, putting them in the daily pill keeper, etc. I have his insulin and syringes in my purse and an extra blood monitor in my purse for when we are out and about. It has been working for us.

We ordered an eliptical machine for the house so he can get more exercise and not battle the elements etc. I will report back after it arrives to let you know how that is going.

You gals mean a lot to me and I have been neglectful lately...that will change...on a personal note...I sent my manuscript off to the agent who is interested in reading it.

HUGS and LOVE

Things are good here...

I have not been on for a while...hubby has been doing great, sugarwise and otherwise. I went to a writers conference and have been working on my novel to send to the agent who might be interested and our sons' band debuted in NYC so we have been away a lot. I have to say that all in all things have been wonderful. Tom's endocrinologist is so please that his readings are so much better. Life is good. I hope it is for all of you too. If not, my love and hugs for better days. XOXOXO

good days

Sugar readings continue to be acceptable and mood = easy breezy. I am so pleased. Tuesday he has an MRI on his head to see how the tumor on his pituitary gland is doing. His sciatica situation is better but he certainly does not want to injure himself so he keeps a low profile in regards to trying to exercise. When we were in California we walked about a mile to a restaurant and then of course we ate and had to walk back, it was hard for him, he complained about his hip aching. But all in all, he is upbeat and his sugar readings are refreshingly acceptable after years and years of HIGH HIGH HIGH readings.

We were in California because I was attending the Santa Barbara Writers Conference. It was wonderful. I got a lot of good advice about making my novel better from those in the know. Evenings were spent listening to best selling authors: Clive Cussler, Erich Puchner, Drusilla Campbell, Simon Van Booy, and TC Boyle. It was a dream come true for me to participate in the workshops and hear the success stories. An agent is willing to look at my manuscript after I work on some things that were pointed out to me.

I am in a good place and it feels good. I hope this finds you in a good place too. HUGS and LOVE.

Easy breezy still

hubby's readings have been where they should be and his mood has been agreeable and pleasant...I continue to enjoy this peaceful, happy time in our lives and hope and pray my sisters out there are having a good time with their diabetic spouses lately too.

HUGS
