I understand that a good blogger tries to write a story- I guess I am not a good blogger because I have a hard time with stories. My blog is a bunch of random thoughts. Like today! Here are a some thoughts on the last week.

- Totally missed my my anniversary with diabetes. That was on Wednesday- it is our 11th year together. I did just blog about diabetes earlier this month though and maybe it is a sign that I am on track that I didn’t recognize the day. For ten years I have looked at January 30th as a sort of memorial for my pancreas. The day my insulin production was pronounced dead. This year I am okay with my disease, hell I am thankful for it! Maybe I will go buy a cake to celebrate… just kidding.

- I can’t remember if I mentioned Ella got pink-eye this week. I’m fairly sure she contracted it from Chucky Cheeses this weekend (which was AWESOME!!!) Chucky Cheese is like a germ orgy. She is better now.

- I am better now also. My butt is bruised but my brain does not ache today and I am back at work. I even had time to make-up on today. Holla! (do the kids still say that?)

- This weekend was pretty fun. We went to Kansas and saw my ADORABLE NIECE and my INCREDIBLE NEPHEW this weekend. Macey is about the size now that Ella was when she was born and she is a little sweetie… I think I might put a bid on her and see if my brother and SIL accept. Who knows, they are pretty sleep deprived! Ben kept me on my toes all weekend- I can’t believe my sister’s ticker is still working. I about had a heart attack a few times this weekend (he picked up a set mousetrap, grabbed a HUGE knife by its blade, found a bottle of super glue within seconds…just to name a few- holy lord). I think Jenny doesn’t describe the magnitude of how smart and FAST that little booger is. Good grief. I think we should have all realized that such a cute kid would be a little Tazmanian Devil. The cutest are always the naughtiest.

- My birthday was all right. Matt went and made a great dinner, bought a little cake for us and got me some roses. Ella was super sweet. I’m not too bummed out about such a weird birthday- it’s not like I turned sixteen or anything.

Well, I have more I could write about but I have to work a bit today- go figure! Anyways, have a good weekend!

PS: When I spell-check my post with the WordPress Spellchecker- it always highlights the word blog as being misspelled… does anyone else find that funny?
