Well, I started taking insulin last night for the first time, on my birthday! That's one way to always remember it (that's what my mom said). I would rather forget. I cried when they told me I had to start taking insulin because my blood sugar levels are out of control. I haven't eaten sugar in four months, except the small turnover at thanksgiving and one burnt marshmallow at the zoo at Christmas.
I was so scared to stick a needle in myself. I kept telling myself "Fear Not!" It's in the Bible 365 times, one for everyday of the year. Guess what, it didn't hurt!!!! I put it in, slowww motttiioon, I pushed the button down to inject 10 units, and it was over in two seconds. I DID IT!! I was scared for nothing. I went to bed. I forgot to check my sugar levels this morning, because I did not want to get out of bed, and when I finally did I was running late. Ha! Running late to get to the shop and spend the day by myself. It's just too pretty a day to be inside painting. Of course, when it's raining, it's too nasty to come out to paint. You could come pick up some ceramics to take home and paint.
I had a nice birthday. I wore a pin that read "Birthday Girl" and I had about as many strangers wishing me Happy Birthday as I did on facebook. Thank You all my friends and family!
My girls are out at Wal-mart today selling Girl Scout cookies from 2pm- 5pm. Better hurry, so you can get the kind you want!! They will be at the Lexington store next Saturday.
