I didn’t find out about the wonderfulness that is IKEA until I was in college. Then, it was about 20 minutes away during my first few years. My friends and I would go on a Saturday afternoon and pick up a few packages of 3 unfinished 4×6 frames for $1.49 a pack. We would then [...]

Accommodate Me?
Posted in blood sugar, college, diabetes, questions on August 26, 2008 | 5 Comments »
For those of you who did not watch my last vlog (ahem – Allison), I am taking a class at the school where I work.
I used to work in the disability services office of a large public university. I am very familiar with the type of accommodations for which a diabetic is entitled. Any time [...]
In Ohio for a conference. We are staying at a college in a dorm, which wouldn’t be that big of a deal except for the….
COMMUNAL BATHROOMS!
I think I might be too old for this.
They do have wireless on the whole campus so I should be able to stay somewhat connected this week when [...]

Just kidding!

This time of year is very busy in my ‘line of work’. Do you remember the end of the year as a student? ok, multiply that by who knows how many and that’s what late April and early May is like.
When a friend told me one of her friends from MN (hi Scott and Molly) [...]

Well, I had quite the eventful weekend. Friday night was the big formal. Don’t I look fancy?!
the only thing missing in this picture is a date!
I almost didn’t make it though! As I was getting ready, one of my students called me because someone in her house had broken a window – and [...]

I am off to the store to get the security tag removed from the dress I bought last weekend for the formal I am wearing it to tonight.
I actually left work early to get ready.
This magic doesn’t happen on its own – ya know?!
At this point I would have linked to the dress I am [...]
A nice shade of pink

I have lived in Florida for two and a half years – within blocks of the intracoastal and within two miles of the ocean. I have been to the beach four times. It is kinda sad and I am kinda pale. Or I was. Now I am a lovely shade of pink.
The weather forecast this [...]

Wow. It seems like I haven’t posted in a really long time. I don’t know that I have gone 10 days without posting since I practically started blogging. I haven’t felt motivated to do much of anything lately. Other than shop – but I’m not sure it helped. I really should put together my JDRF [...]
I’ve Got No Rhythm

But I L-O-V-E those who do. Especially when you don’t expect it (white guys CAN dance).
Now picture 20-25 girls doing this in unison and you have a good idea of my weekend!
Back to business on Monday!!
P.S. I am watching Brothers and Sisters right now and wondering when Ken Olin got so [...]
