Monday Ramblings, Pink in the NFL, New Basal Rates, No Stress

First weekend with the new basal rates and carb to insulin ratio, not bad. I didn’t see much of a difference, but the after meal highs have come down a little. There were still highs, but they were about 170-180 insteado f the 230-240 I was having. It could have also been the food that I ate this weekend because I must admit, it wasn’t the best choices. Friday night I went to Chile’s. Saturday night was food court chinese food (my favorite food in the world) Sunday was a chicken sandwich at the bar watching the Eagles.

This weekend also didn’t really have any stress involved at all. Saturday Virginia Tech took care of business easily, and so did the Eagles yesterday. Nothing to stress about sports wise. My Panthers got beat, but oh well, what are you going to do. Anyway, onto other things. I am working on finishing up an interview with my local JDRF person. She pretty much does everything for the JDRF in this area, so I’ll be posting that later this week. I have some plans that I’ve been putting together to work with the local office of JDRF and do some more volunteering and working to get more donations. Hopefully it will all work out, mainly when I actually have some time to.

Seeing all this pink in the NFL again this weekend is pissing me off, because I know that there is not going to be a single thing done for diabetes month. And there are a few NFL players with diabetes, one of them being a Pro Bowler (Cutler). Diabetes gets no respect. Diabetes is the Rodney Dangerfield of comedians, no respect I tell ya. But all I can do is use my resources that I have to try and get a voice out there and work with you all that have voices as well so maybe one day somebody will hear us.

Well, it’s Monday and Monday’s are always my shortest posts, so I hope you all have an amazing day.
