My neighbor is taking me up to ck's college to get dk and bring her home. I don't relish the thought of sitting in a car for three hours but am very grateful to him that he's doing the driving. (I have such wonderful neighbors!)

Good morning whiners.
My wife works for the Hydro and last night there was a big storm in TO and she was called to go in to work at 9PM to deal with the power outage calls.
Before this would have been great news as I would hit the bar about 1 minute after she left but now it was just a weekend night alone and lonely. I am going to be a nice guy and let her spend the overtime money on herself this time.

I am tired of having to do everything in this house for everyone while everyone just b**ches and moans. Which is what I am doing right now!!! Just feeling like no one appreciates anything I do for them. Would be nice just for once to have them say Hey Mom thanks, could I help you? Guess I'm sitting on the good ole PityPot and will be here a while.
don't forget to stir!

my whine..................MY FLIPPIN SURGER HAS GONE NUTS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I made the mistake of eatting one small piece of carrot cake, even took off my favorite part, the frosting it was cream cheese.........
started with me blacking out at the table, edward came out of the bathroom I came to with him screaming my name......guess I freaked him out really bad, sorry love!
he said lets start with your sugar......436 took 26 units of insulin......429 @ 953p..with that call dr back again take my regular 50 units before bed [email protected] to sleep
wake up it is 337@10am with nothing to eat or drink because he told me not too to see what it is.....take my normal 20 units plus the 12 more units cuse of the sliding scale dont you flippin know it @ 1118am this morning it is up to 433!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All I had was 2 cups of coffee and a darn banana!!!!!!! Dr says take more insulin EAT something solid with no sugars seeing as the bananas have natural sugars in it.......It is now 417...........ugh...........so tired of this up and down crap sticking myself 14 plus times a day and no one getting my meds right!!!!!! And I wonder why they have to remove a kidney and part of my liver!!!!!!
I am shaking so damn hard I cant see straight my family has called off my dads b day party so that we can all sit here and worry........WTH?!?!?!?!?!?
I just want to feel better......I am 38 and feel 97 and slippin on a banana peel!!!!!
Love
Pamm

Katzy...take a look at this for some help with the diet...Ask the Dietitian
This page is good, but I recommend you check out the other links on the site too.
Whoever told you Splenda is bad for diabetics is wrong. There are quite a few artificial sweeteners that DO raise blood sugar and can tear up the insides of the tummy if eaten in large quantity. Those 'bad' ones usually end in 'ol' or 'al.'
The American Diabetes Association recommends Splendra as a first choice ...it has 0 calories and does not raise blood glucose. My kids and mr cmc use it. All of our endocrinologists like the blue packets or the Splendra- but our neurologist (one of the top 10 in the US) does NOT recommend the blue packets- he prefers to use only Splendra or the wise limited use of natural sugars instead.
I hope you can get the numbers evened out soon.

I love her to death but thats mommas way of showing she cares and loves us.......like today she has been cooking since about 11 last night, she is worrying about my sugar she went out and spent like over 200 bucks for food for edward and I ( shes afraid if I come home he cant take care of me the house and the dogs as well as get his homework done and gone to classes too so shes going to cook "Meals" and freeze them, dad said she has about a months worth of meals already...........lol
I am starting to get scared again....................ugh first court......and that was fine.......I mean not often do you hear a judge tell you that he is so impressed by you that he is esponging your record and that *** Looking at the jury box that was filled with ppl going to prison*** they should take a page from my book.....WOW.....still suprised as well as humbled by that, was told to finish my Masters degree because we needed more ppl like me in the world.......sort of confused by that but again as I said humbled and decidedly over joyed by it!!!!!

CMC,
Sorry I forgot, you asked where I had heard about the Splenda....The u of m Hospital.....I have cancer in the pancreas among other things......any ways SOME sugars and yes even sugar alcohols cause my sugars to rise.....Splenda is made with sugar alcohols.......some drs have the opinion that it is better to use splenda than real sugar truth be told it isnt it is just a weaker type of sugar and they use the worst part of it the alcohol.......better to use none at all.... me personally I stick with sweet and low or any other type of sub like equal......the only time I eat real sugar is when someone puts it in their foods and I eat their cooking, even Edward has learned not to use it and we are fi ne with it.........the other thing is your starch intake and breads even your fruit.........I dont eat red meat hardly ever and have an awsome diet.......the drs are in awe of how we eat naturally only to find out my sugars go nuts all of the time......they say it is my lack of activity that makes it so bad........if only I could take up running again.........I miss that!!!!! Talk about a natural high!!!!!!
But thanks for the info I will definaltely check out the site, I am always looking for good sites like those that will help with a diabetic diet........
Love and hugs,
Pamm

I've been dealing with diabetes for over thirty years, I raised two little kids with it and watched my MIL suffer from it too. It's a tough thing to live with- even if the BG is kept stable- and it was/is in good control with my family members. We worked with dieticians, nutritionists and specially trained pediatric endocrine nurses too. These days the 'kids' are adults take care of it themselves but I still stay on top of the latest research and recommendations.
I hope you feel better soon.
edit...I guess this could be my whine for today???
