It Still Works?

I haven’t spent much time on the computer at home.  But I want to thank everyone who donated to the JDRF.  I was sitting at a soccer game a few weeks ago and realized that at least 4 children had insulin pumps on that field--Tristan, Chy, a teammate’s sister, and another teammate’s brother.  They all had the same autoimmune disease!  What are the odds?  Maybe I am just more aware, or it’s more prevalent?  Answer—BOTH!  At the last endocrinologist appointment, the dietician said that 4 new cases had come in THAT week.  The pain, the stress, the complications, and the cost!  We need a cure!  Thank you!

Off my soapbox . . .

School started with a vengeance; sports and honor classes are the children’s lives.  They are busy.  Tim and I try to see as much as we can.  We actually both got to watch the same game tonight!  Getting everyone to practices and games has been challenge. Two cars and 5 different schedules result in ugly timing.  Since we had saved a bit of cash over the summer, Tim had been looking for a “teen” car, inexpensive, yet stilling working. Another challenge!  Well, it’s lasted a week!  Keep your fingers crossed.  Seriously!

Where’s the soccer pictures, you ask?  Of course, I have soccer pictures!  But I haven’t picked my favorites yet, so you just have to wait.

Instead, I leave you two pictures that made me smile.

*My crazy dog and her “special” bedtime toy, which no other dog was allowed to even walk near! In the morning, she even took it back outside with her.
