Fit for use

Yippee, back to normality, well as normal as it gets!

Im back to work, children are back to school, and im back to blogging, ok so i could have blogged before now but have had lots of family time and plus i havent been in the best of health, spent the day after Christmas day in hospital which was the lowest point.

Honestly im hoping this year will be a better one for me health wise, it seems like since i was diagnosed diabetic type 1 back in....blimey June of last year i havent been keeping too well off and on and it had been getting me down, i seem to pick up everything thats going...and well its been a lot to get my head around, im still struggling to keep blood sugar levels under control.
I have been pretty much out of commission most of December, with infections and what not...but im feeling good and yeah fit for use...i so need a good beating.

I considered making some new year resolutions and then thought sod it im terrible for sticking to them so perhaps its best just to try to work on what i need to without setting myself goals which i might not reach and then feeling bad because i didnt....im terribly guilty of doing that.

The bossman is really pleased with me at the moment, i didnt even balk at his comment of "you finally seem to be learning"....well its only been 6 years or so, heck i reckon in another 6 i may be bloody spot on!...but lets not hold me to that!

But learning what? ahh well i am awful for being pedantic (hold on got to google that word, i think it fits lol) ..yeah it does, sort of...in that although im pretty much obedient in doing as im told, i falter in that i have been resistant to doing more than what i am specifically told, if i dont like doing something, although i will do it, its with a lack of enthusiasm, i dont go above and beyond,...im not explaining very well am i?

Anyways something seems to have clicked into place, i dunno i just have been doing things albeit little things, some that im not keen on, that i know please him without having to be told to...and he likes that.

And i like that he likes this....all is good, a good start to the New Year.

But hey we're only a week in lets not get carried away, it could all go to shit next week!

    Hi Tori, it's great to see you back! I'm sorry you have been suffering health wise and glad you are feeling better. Spending any time in hospital sucks, and over the holiday's even worse! I so hope this year is a much better one for you health wise.

    Glad to hear things are going well with you two. A good start to the new year! I hope 2014 is a wonderful year for you.

    Hugs,
    Roz

    Happy to have you back! I've missed your humor! Being sick sucks, especially being sick in the hospital around the holidays. Having diabetes can be difficult to get under control, but I do know that if you take proper care of yourself, you can stay healthier overall (sorry...I know even THAT sucks! Lol) Perhaps your Master can help you find the motivation ;)

    Hopefully that ' click' will make things easier on you and it won't all go to pot this week!

    hugs and welcome back

    Welcome back Tori. Boxing day in hospital - sorry to read this. Most diabetics I know take time to learn to 'read' their bodies and to spot the warning signs. You're still a relative newcomer to the condition.
    Hope the coming weeks bring you that much need relief.... however you take it :)
    hugs

      Im learning to recognise the signs when im low, its when im high that i cant seem to learn until its getting really bad.....the doctors did say it can take a couple years to really get it under control...im still in the honeymoon period.

    Having spent Christmas day in the hospital with a severe migraine and dehydration, i completely understand how much it sucks ass to be sick around the holidays. Missed your posts and hope that the New Year brings you better health! (Don't tempt Murphy, though he seems quite happy to have taken up residence in my house)

    It is So hard to adjust to big ongoing health things.

    And I thought you explained "It" just fine.

    Glad to see you back in Blogland.

    Master was just telling me the other day that I should do things without being told, and, yeah, he seems to be pleased when I do, which makes me feel good, but it's just not as fun, lol, or maybe I'm just not looking at it the right way...

    Sorry to hear about the hospital trip! Yikes!
