Achieving something does not happen automatically.  In order to get to the end, you have to follow a certain path.  There is no written path, well there can be, but I choose to create my own path, thanks to Robert Frost in fifth grade.  Small steps are needed to reach a larger achievement.  This is for anything in life, but since this is the Life of a Diabetic, lets relate it to my diabetes.

Wowwwwwww. This may be the longest that I have ever gone without blogging since I started back in 2005.  I don’t really have any excuses for why I have not been blogging.  I have been busier than I have been in years, but that is still not an excuse.  My blood sugar has not been as good as I want it to be either.  I haven’t been tweeting lately either, but I’m still there reading tweets.  I am working on a few diabetes projects right now and hopefully by the beginning of October I will be able to announce some of them to you all.
