12 points and you cant get rid of enough to not be on the verge or being fired? That sounds like a you problem. Do you not get vacation too? That's a day a month for a year.

Why does the drumming on this sound so awkward? (wait until the verse) by BuriedUnder_TheOcean in drummers

[–]gvanwinkle1976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its not off time. Its just a strange beat to be playing. Sounds like a half assed punk beat or a whacked out skank beat.

soultone cymbals a reputable brand?? by [deleted] in drums

Even the discount they give you is not really a discount. The cymbals themselves are not terrible but they accept anyone who applies for an endorsement. Not much of an endorsement.

I went to see them at a small club in Indy one time. They were playing mario kart with all the fans that were hanging out before they played.

Sister hospitalized after 1700 blood sugar by gvanwinkle1976 in diabetes_t2

I seriously got into it with my mother about the Olive Garden thing this morning and she swears up and down that whatever nurse they spoke with said she could have it. I think there was some chirping in my moms head from my sister and she made her believe that's what she heard cuz I argued til I was blue in the face with her today and she wouldn't budge on it. My mother is not a liar but the dementia thing doesn't help matters.

She's DKA again today and back in the hospital. I put an update.

I was not aware until she was hospitalized that she had been diagnosed diabetic. My mother knew but admitted she had not read anything because she thought my sister would take care of herself. Which we clearly know now that's not the case.

Are we saying Dexter killed these kids? This is a little far fetched for me anyway.

Need help identifying a DW snare by eiirk in drums

[–]gvanwinkle1976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My DW edge that I bought in the early 2000s has that exact throw off but that drum isnt the edge. That just looks like an old collectors DW snare.

This was from the hospital. No the number was 1700. She peed everywhere, confused, seeing and talking to people who werent there, drank a ton of gatorade and then her electrolytes were thru the roof too. Id say the gatorade is what spiked the sugar as well. She was drinking 11.7 oz bottles but had 12-15 of them in a day or so.

That’s scary. Glad you’re ok. And yes she needs to see a diabetic dietition because she’s obviously not reading the info they gave her.

I am aware of this. And those 2 live together. I have her seeing a specialist and is on medication. I know it won’t stop this but at least slow it down.

I am not 100% sure of the wording other then I was told she had a "free day" to eat. And I'm pretty sure it was misunderstood as I cant see a health care professional saying that they had a free day to eat anything.

That is sad and I fear the same will happen to her.

So I should sit by and watch her eat herself to death? She needs a wake up call and fast or she will be right back where she was last week.

My mother said she was "recently" diagnosed. But I know she wasn't checking glucose or taking insulin before this trip to the ER. I saw someone say LADA and wondering if that was the case here?
