The blog at http://www.kweaver.org/cs has more detail about it. Diabetes and my personal life have gone to the back burner, but I decided last Friday I am taking control of my life. Well, hopefully not completely taking control, that would probably mean losing my job tomorrow.
Yes, a somewhat real possibility, my school district is RIFing a large group of people. Fortunately not as many as they originally expected, as a lot took the voluntary RIF. Three people in my building, include the home ec teacher across the hall. She took the RIF rather than maternity leave. (Yes, I know it isn't called home ec anymore, but I still call the custodians, janitors.
So back to the diabetes news. I was quoted in the New York times this weekend: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/12/business/12novel.html?partner=permalink&ex
I've been using that device for several weeks now, I got it the same day that the Dexcom upgrade came. It's interesting. Also difficult to deal with -- my limit is two medical devices at a time, I've found.
I've also quit working with the Fit4Diabetes folks -- they are great, and really worth it, but I'm ready to manage the exercise thing by myself. That's something that has been at the forefront of the back burner stuff.
