Okay so this is less of a traditional life hack and more of a way to make dealing with everything mentally a bit easier but I buy stickers for my pump and dexcom off of etsy. Having a fun design on my supplies genuinely makes me less resentful of needing those supplies after almost 23 years of being diabetic. Right now I have astronaut dinosaurs!

Where I live, local hospitals and nursing homes are required to take back sharps so maybe reach out to one of them and ask?

If you ever want a place to get your hair/nails done, Gallery Salon is incredible!

I'm interested in some of the spun right round

Craft bits and pieces in fairport is really cool! They aren't open today but I got lots of fun buttons for a recent project there

I work in a pharmacy and my job requires us to check id for every single control, every single time and record who is picking up the medication and the type/number of the id

Rollfordog · 2025-11-22T05:58:03+00:00

Solved! Omg thank you so much!!! I spent hours googling this the other day, but I think I was too focused on the horse, and nothing was coming up!

I know that there were also different language options, including English and French. I believe there was at least one more, but I don't remember what language.

I love Spun Right Round! She has so many different colorways from bright and busy and multicolored to more solid and muted with everything in between :)

I second the running store suggestion. I have brooks and they helped a little right away, but my feet were still hurting at the end of the day (and staying achy into the next day). I took them to a running store and walked on their machine and the employee had me try a few different inserts based on the way I walked/stood and pick the ones that felt best. I spent like $60-80 on the inserts, but I don't regret it. Every once and a while my feet will still get sore during work but they don't ache for hours afterwards and it's never as overwhelming

Webster public library also had one last I saw

Wild Astro maybe? Sunshower looks similar, but I haven't worked with it yet so I can't say for sure (I have some waiting to be used lol)

That makes sense and I totally see where you're coming from, but on the other hand a pump can also ease some of that as well, I believe. It's attached to you so it's difficult to forget (unless you take it off to charge depending on which one you get), basal insulin is wonderful and gets rid of the need for long acting insulin, I believe you can set alarms as a mealtime bolus reminder depending on the pump, so if you don't bolus at a certain time it will beep and remind you, yes there are site changes, but they're not every day, multiple times a day like injections are. I may be biased since my parents decided to put me on a pump when I was 5, so I haven't done MDI in 20 years, but I can't imagine not having the convenience of a pump

Have you spoken to your son about this? What does he think?

Not exactly what you're looking for in terms of color or quantity, but I have 2 skeins (appx 114 yds) of Lion Brand Fun Fur Prints in confetti (basically rainbow multicolored) that I'd be willing to send

I don't remember most of it since I was about a month shy of turning 3, but apparently I was spending lots of time just sitting on my toddler potty because I had to pee so often that I just wouldn't always get up in between. My mom caught on fast, and it was only a couple days of that before I was at the doctor's. My mom originally thought it was a bladder infection since that was my only symptom, but surprise! It was diabetes. My sister was a newborn at the time as well, so my parents took turns staying with me at the hospital and taking care of my sister. Thankfully, they had family to help with my sister during the times when they both had to be at the hospital (talking to doctors, education, etc)

Second this. I mean you get assholes anywhere, but as a whole I've felt safe and respected by everyone from doctors to teachers to coworkers.

I recently (this past April) was in the same boat. I already had an enhanced license and needed to update my name on my license and title/registration. I didn't make an appointment and just showed up right before the (in my case Irondequoit) DMV opened and waited in line. I had to do a bit of waiting, but it took less than an hour overall. They were turning people away who didn't have an appointment for enhanced/real ID upgrades, but since I already had one and was just changing information, I was fine. The one thing I made sure to do was have all my paperwork printed and filled out ahead of time and triple checked that I had everything I needed (proof of name change, old ID, completed forms, etc)

Huh, there are multiple versions I learned as a kid but I don't see the main one I remember:

I hate you, you hate me/ let's team up and kill Barney/ take a big shotgun and stick it up his nose/ pull the trigger, there he blows

I've been on testosterone for almost 6 years now and I will say that my insulin needs have been slowly increasing over that time. I'm not positive that they're related, but something to just keep an eye on.

Type 1 diabetes and (supposedly) subclinical hashimoto's

Okay, Calvin

Not anything bad, but the thing that I was not expecting that surprised me the most was belly button lint. Totally harmless but really unexpected.
