Happy new year! Yay!

I just wanted to share this with people who may understand and I know some of you readers are fellow diabetics, whether it's type 1, type 2 or type 3. My last blood sugar of 2010 was 77 at 11:30 pm. My first blood sugar of 2011, taken at 12:03 am, was 37. Same meter. Can I just say, 37 feels pretty bleck.

Goodbye, 2010. Adios. Au revoir. Gesundheit. Good night. You weren't very nice to me. I know things could have been worse and I do have my health (now), warmth, food and shelter, but you gave me loneliness, whooping cough, a broken hand and a miscarriage. I'm looking forward to bidding you adieu.

2011? I am welcoming you with open arms and an open heart. You, my lovely year, will be an excellent year. I am excited to see and experience what you will bring. Just a few more hours until you are here.

Until then, I will sit here and enjoy this glass of champagne that, otherwise, would have been (and should still be) forbidden. Cheers.
