Olivia recently pulled a stunt that simultaneously scared the crap out of me and made me madder that a sack full of wet cats.

She, against my instructions, set up an account on My Space. I found out she had it a while ago and would check her site every few days just to make sure everything was kept above board. She mostly used it to talk to her friends and to check out celebrities like Hannah Freakin' Montana. Oy. I let her know that I knew about it and that I was checking it out and she was fine with that.

Until this weekend, however. She changed her age to read 17 (she's 13) and some random guy contacted her. They talked for a bit until he started getting graphic at which point, she told him to leave her alone. What made me angry was that she gave the guy her name, her school and her address. What sent me thru the roof was that I didn't hear this from her, but rather from the vice principal at her school. Yeah, that one went over well.

Sometimes my life gets in the way of this blog.  Things have been crazy-busy around here for the last month.  We've moved again and it's been nuts trying to get that accomplished with two toddlers underfoot.

 

Olivia went to camp again this year and had a great time.  She seems to have made even more friends this year and spends a lot of time on the phone and the computer, chatting with them.  I'm thrilled to see her forming such great bonds with these other girls.  It's just too bad that most of them don't live closer.  

 

While she was at camp, Olivia's blood sugars kept dropping very low.  I'm sure it was all the extra activity, but at one point, they had a 3 hour overnight basal set to zero.  That's NEVER happened at home.   She's gradually gone back to needing more insulin, especially overnight, but her needs do seem to have dropped a tiny bit.
