December 1 Already, Seriously?

I can’t believe that today is already the first day of December. How crazy is that? I am so glad that NaBloPoMo is over! Like I said, I’m still going to try and do it, but at least there isn’t any pressure to get a post done. Well, my diabetes has been talked about a lot lately, so I am going to get back into that starting today. I have put on a lot of weight since I have been laid-off, probably a good 10-15 pounds. It hasn’t affected my sugars that much, but I know it isn’t helping them at all. I have been getting no exercise at all, just walking from parking lots to stores and walking from my car to the entrance of the Bank Atlantic Center for the hockey games, that’s about it.

I am going home for the holidays, well the day after Christmas, and my goal is to lose 10 pounds before I go up there. That gives me 26 days to do so, and 10 pounds may seem like a lot, but it’s not. One full week of exercise and I can guarantee this weight will be gone. Although I have been posting blogs, I have not logged into my Twitter account in almost 2 weeks. So I don’t really know what is going on in everybody’s world. I am going to spend some time this weekend catching back up on all the blogs that I have missed in that time period.

As of today my insurance has ran out. I was not able to get blood work done before the insurance ran out because of some scheduling conflicts on my own part. My own fault. I am awaiting to receive paperwork on my Cobra insurance. I need to get that as soon as possible so I can fill it out and get it submitted as soon as possible, that way I don’t some how go beyond that almighty 63 days of continuing coverage. If that happens then the insurance companies will send out a rep and put a big red stamp on my forehead that says “Pre-Existing Condition”. All insurance execs should have to go through what the guy in Saw VI went through, that’s how I feel.

Well, until tomorrow, have a good one.
