I can agree with all ...Sleep...what's that?!!! I can agree with all of the above comments :) I haven't had a full nights sleep in a couple of years now, about six months into our life with diabetes I had to make a special trip to the cosmetics counter for extra eye cream and the BEST moisturizer I could get my hands on :) <br /><br />You are not alone, just know that while you are getting up to check on your little angel...so are we :) If that gives you any kind of comfort, I know it does for me, to know that I am not alone in this and that there are many others out there who understand.conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18365385305270234889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-69265500106233952062010-04-15T18:25:07.361-05:002010-04-15T18:25:07.361-05:00What's that smell ?!?! :)

So I am thinking I could use a T-shirt that explains it all, too. And THAT could be my new work uniform!!

I do have to say one thing...my outlook only and I hope it helps...Nate is not sick...he has diabetes, but he has two wonderful parents who wake up throughout the night to make sure that he does not get sick. I have found that it does not take away the worry, but believing that there is a difference between the diagnosis and being sick has helped me keep a positive outlook. Nate (along with my Matt and Jake) will have diabetes until we find a cure, but if we keep up this hard work and if we teach them good habits, they don't have to be sick....just a positive thought for the day...which I hope is better for you than yesterday seemed to be!!Scott K.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-65539936267993563902010-04-15T00:06:34.555-05:002010-04-15T00:06:34.555-05:00I like Joanne's idea....a commune would be gre...I like Joanne's idea....a commune would be great!<br /><br />I feel as though I've aged many,many years since Jada's diagnosis.

I can so ...I really feel bad for you sweet friend! I can so relate! When you have looked like hell for 12 years like I have...you start to convince yourself that bags under eyes are the hip thing of the day. (I said hip, that is so lame!) You are still in the phase where you KNOW when you look like hell. I've moved on to where I think I look good, when in fact...I look like something a rabid racoon drug in. <br /><br />It breaks my heart to know how sleep deprived you are, I SO feel for you! But in my selfishness, It gives me a warm feeling to know I am not alone. I am not a freak. There are others. They know my pain. You know my pain! (And in turn I totally know your pain.)<br /><br />Love ya. And seriously, you are adorable.<br /><br />I honestly feel like this entire comment makes no sense...and I can't even begin to fix it because I am so freakin tired too!!Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752883120541646427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-26708195107330453622010-04-14T22:31:26.238-05:002010-04-14T22:31:26.238-05:00By the way, I forgot to say that you look totally ...By the way, I forgot to say that you look totally cute every time I see you. <br /><br />Do you make a special effort just for lil ol' me?Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030783893373288244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-36328009453309696842010-04-14T22:21:47.893-05:002010-04-14T22:21:47.893-05:00Maybe we should make t-shirts?

I wanna tell people- "No really- I used to be cute! I swear! I was put together!". At this point, I'm not sure anyone would believe me! I'm sorry you had a rough day. I hope tomorrow is better! ((((hugs)))) to you, dear friend. Know that you're not alone in feeling this way (or in not getting around to a shower). And our sweet little kiddos are so worth it!

And let's face it, I was never put together in the first place, so I didn't have that far to fall. I do know that I look about 20 years older (before Elise was born, people told me I could still pass for a high school student), and like I haven't slept in years. Make that a year and a half, you you'd be right.<br /><br />I'm still thinking that we need to all live in a commune and someone would be responsible for all the night checks on a rotating basis. That way, the rest of us could get a good night's sleep.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030783893373288244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-73921937611427854122010-04-14T21:48:01.666-05:002010-04-14T21:48:01.666-05:00Whatever!
