I must admit that I’m sort of a Facebook freak who would like to update her status with just about every random thought I have. Since that would make me look like a complete weirdo, I’ve put every random diabetes thought that I’ve had in roughly the last 24 hours in this post for your reading pleasure.
 

Michelle had a fasting under 100 for the first time in ages.
 

Michelle is working really hard to make sure her fastings are low enough that she can walk in the mornings.
 

Michelle still hasn’t figured out the best walking/basal rate balance.
 

Michelle pumped her fists in excitement when her bedtime reading and fasting were exactly the same.
 

Michelle knows this soft pretzel will kill her blood sugar, but she wants to eat it anyway.
 

Michelle is not as sore from walking today as she was yesterday.
 

Michelle is not happy about walking from the depths of the parking lot into WalMart because her calves are still a little sore.
 

Michelle is trying out new infusion set real estate and isn’t holding her breath for good results.
 

Michelle just heard from her Dexcom rep that her insurance company’s policy about covering CGMS supplies changed.
 

Michelle seems to be doing fine without a CGMS.
 

Michelle still wants her insurance company to cover the Dexcom sensors.
 

Michelle is thinking about the bloodwork she needs for her next endo appointment.
 

Michelle can’t wait to get a new pair of sneakers.
 

Michelle can’t wait to get through the rest of her infusion sets so she can order longer tubing that will allow her to try even MORE infusion set real estate but needs to finish paying the deductible first.
 

Michelle wonders what her Facebook friends who haven’t talked to her since high school are thinking about all these d-related status updates.
 

Michelle just doubled her basal rate to deal with that damn pretzel.
