I'm Still Here!

I'd like to say time flies, but then I stop and think how much I've managed to cram into this year already... just obviously not much blogging! A huge shout out to Diabetes Queensland though for including my blog in their One Wonders enewsletter as its given me the proverbial kick-in-the-you-know-what to at least post an update. I have not flown into outer space never to be seen again... I just got caught up in having an engagement party! buying an apartment! aaaaaaaaaaand launching a new business with my family! Oh and trying to be a diabetes management goddess of course!

Engagement party, I highly recommend them, if only simply to understand what headaches you might have for the real big day... oh and very harshly, who you may actually prefer not to have there... bitchy I know but its a really big day, and its about the groom and bride to be and the people who shine whole-hearted love and real warmth into your life.

Bought an apartment, the one one I've lived in for the last three years, its finally OURS. Yep I've taken another big step for adult kind and bought property with my wonderful other half. Awwwwww. Stressful though, my goodness, its been over two years in the making. Crazy, but one thing or another seemed to jump in my way. Not anymore! ....now for the even bigger monthly payments...how very grown up of me!

Launching a new business, has been immensely stressful and exciting at the same time, which means sleepless nights of late. 9pm to 1am seems to be when I do my best business plotting, just I have to be lying in bed with the lights out but eyes open while I toss and turn... I don't seem to get the same switched on effect if I'm actually out of bed sitting at the computer...very annoying! This also makes it difficult to stick to my exercise regime early the next morning....  cue erratic irritating blood sugars. grrrrrrr!

Also Ive been trying to work closely with the local diabetes centre, mostly out of guilt. I feel like I can't be a good diabetic if I don't constantly go in there. But every time I do, they tell me to eat more carbs, which I do... because they're experts right.... but then I start on this spiral of highs and lows and annoying grumpyness (even I don't want be around me).... So I'm back to my usual 'not-so-much' carb lifestyle... still on the roller coaster a little though....not actually sure it's possible to get completely off sometimes. Maybe its more like we can get out and stand on the platform but while we're standing there watching it, something else comes and pushes us back in the seat... enough lol

Ok that's a quick update for now as I'm off to meetings to get this product launched!

Much Love
