Halloween.

Happy Halloween all.

Im spending mine sadly at work :(  im here till 8pm so all the trick or treating will be over and done with by the time i get home. boo (and not the sound a ghost makes.)

I am currently planning my first vactaion since i was diagnosed.  Im a little nervous but like ive said before this is not going to stop me from doing what i love.  (like travleing)  My boyfriend, joe and i are going to chicago in january.  were taking a train from michigan there.  im super excited.  we already booked the hotel and will be booking the train very soon.  anyway the biggest fear i have is something happening on the train where we get stuck or they have to de-ice the rails or something and i have no food...but im going to try to prepare by packing some stuff for on the train. 

anyway i have another endo appointment on wednesday the second and hopefully she will tell me if im type one or two.  (pray for two) i will let you know the verdict as soon as i find out.

bitches, doctors and a new kitten

So let me start off by saying i think this post may be alot of venting.  stuff i need to get off my chest.

i work full time in an office processing claims for auto glass.  i have worked here for about 6 months.  it was great at first.  "i love this job" is what i used to catch myself thinking alot back when i first started.  i have worked in retail since i was 16, and so this was new and cool.  talking on the phone all day i loved it.  our office is small (only 5 girls) so drama is bound to happen right. i guess i knew that. but i didnt know it would get this bad. let me start by telling you a little bit about the people i work with.  one girl we will call her casey, is so drama filled, had a kid out of wedlock and her bf and her fight all the time hes a drug dealer and shes the only one who works in their family so lets just say her family is already fucked.  (excuse the language) then theres gina who is gothic and creepy, shes married to a guy whos 12 years older then her and she has a kid also, shes a stuck up bitch who has only worked here for a year and a half and thinks she runs the place.  shes miss perfect and cant do any wrong.  and if you do something wrong you get a BIG note on your desk saying exactly what you did.  (i know from expirence) next is marcy an older woman lots of health problems and she wont quit smoking.  like really you cough all the time like you hacking up a lung and you still keep smoking wow.  she coughs so loud i can barely hear my customers on the phone sometimes.  and last is terri shes the supervisor, or not.  she has no backbone and does not know how to run this place.  she lets people walk all over her all the time.  like really your the fucking supervisor and you dont want to deal with stuff so you ignore it and hope it goes away.  ugh.  i could run this place better then you and i have only been here for 6 months. 

so the drama started recently and has gotten worse over time.  today it had to do with casey and gina.  they didnt get the days off they wanted for christmas and thanksgiving so they both threw a fit.  and started requesting days off for next christmas like 2012.  are you serious.  like more then a year away.  they act like they are 5 years old when they have to work days that they dont want to.  ugh. so casey posted on facebook that she should get the days off that she wants cause she has a kid. what??? like none of our familys matter. just hers. mmk princess.  theres so much more i could say but i dont think you all wanna read about work problems.

so next on the list of things to tell you.  endocrineologist.  went good, i still dont know if im type one or two yet. she gave me the pen needle instead of always having to use syringes.  awesome.  and she lowered my insulin dosage again.  then i went to get my blood drawn and hmm that ended badly.  i need to learn how to get over my fear of needles and blood and the doctors.  you would think i would be over it. deff not. i almost passed out just getting this stupid blood draw.  ugh.  i have no clue what im gonna do if i ever get pregnant.  seriously.  anyway i went to see my general doc and he told me i have to lose 5lbs by the next time i see him.  i feel like that should be easy but i need to get motivated and i have no idea how to do that.

oh i got a kitten.  shes so precious.  i named her maliboo.  shes all white with blue eyes. shes 8 weeks old and so freakin cute.  her and the dog dont get along yet.  but im working on that. 

well i think thats all i need to get out.  oh one more thing R.I.P Aunt Kathleen (i miss you)

Fall 2011













This is true.

Im learning how to accept this.  even tho i would love to live a normal life.  this is what i have to do.
and im ready to deal with whatever it throws my way.

i have my first endo appointment next tuesday and im nervous.  not sure what to expect. hoping for all good news. anyway on a more personal note, life is good.  i have learned to love it more now. appreciate everything and i am planning my first vacation to chicago with diabetes.  i know i will be okay.  my blood sugar actually has been pretty stable. ive been right in the normal range and occasionly drop a little lower then i should.

i will let you know how the dr app goes.
