Day of Diabetes . . .

Have you heard of #dayofdiabetes?  It’s a day when the Diabetes Online Community documents our day of diabetes together by tweeting using that hashtag.  I have to admit, I usually forget to participate but this time I marked it in my calendar so I’d remember.  It worked!!

So tired but time to get today started. Blood sugar check is always 1st. Now 1 unit insulin for COFFEE #dayofdiabetes pic.twitter.com/XTvWm2yxHq

It's cool enough that I should think about starting to go running again. Or maybe do it instead of think about it #sweatbetes #dayofdiabetes

Just because I can figure out my insulin dose w/o entering the carb count into pump, doesn't mean I should #workinprogress #dayofdiabetes

BG now 165. I knew the spike was coming sooner or later - today had been way too good. Damn that broken cookie I sampled #dayofdiabetes

So yeah, I tweeted a lot yesterday. (I've even left a few out because this post is already way too long. But perhaps my most important tweet yesterday was . . .

Having so much fun with #dayofdiabetes Helps a lot when we can all do this D thing together.
