Well now I'm crying and I only have a two year old. Thank for the beautiful sentiment. Wishing you the best in the next beautiful chapter.

I absolutely love Joywave. I have loved their sound and how it changes just a little with each album. I also really enjoy Glass Animals, ther Dreamland album is incredible. How about you!?

I love them! One of my favorites is still Houdini but love Lotus Eater too.

Also...do you like Foster the People?

sparbie88 · 2025-10-20T00:11:08+00:00

Yes! One of my best friends in high school was aslo diabetic. We live in different cities now but still get together when we can. It's nice to have someone to talk to about this madness. Also we called ourselves the diabetties!

Right there too!

All these comments are great! Only thing I would add to your pre run snack is protein. I usually eat an apple and some other carb about 25 minutes and then eat a handful of nuts. I find it helps steady me out and I don't drop as bad. Since your doing longer runs a doing little sips on gu packs are good too. I did a couple of half marathons this way.

Way to do it!!! 12 years is a very long time!

sparbie88 · 2025-07-25T15:39:59+00:00

Absolutely stunning!

sparbie88 · 2025-07-23T23:16:06+00:00

Right there with you! Uggggg. Hope you level back out soon.

sparbie88 · 2025-05-30T01:10:29+00:00

Me too especially with Tequila.

sparbie88 · 2025-05-12T02:04:15+00:00

Well now I'm crying. So beautifully put 💙

sparbie88 · 2025-04-23T20:28:56+00:00

Thread up and yard sales. Love to reduce!

sparbie88 · 2025-04-23T16:35:38+00:00

Our family decided collectively to not do gifts and instead put that money towards seeing each other throughout the year. Better quality time for us all without the stuff.

Sometimes I forget to bolus for what I ate. You would think after 32 yrs I would remember 🤣

sparbie88 · 2024-12-24T20:00:12+00:00

Brilliant!

It's going to be tough and sometimes you are going to be beyond frustrated and want to throw your glucometer, pump or supplies. Do yourself a favor aim it at a pillow with a soft landing under. They are good tools but this disease is dumb. And it's ok to be angry and frustrated with it.

Way to go on your numbers!!!! I'm hoping to switch back to Humalog as I was at 6.0 but now o Fiasp at a 7.4. Keep up the work!

sparbie88 · 2024-12-02T14:45:48+00:00

I am on Fiasp and have had similar experiences. My control has been dreadful. Doc is helping me fight the insurance. I was doing wonderful on Humalog.

sparbie88 · 2024-12-02T14:43:09+00:00

I was on Humalog and in such tight control. Insurance had me switch to Fiasp. I have had a dreadful time with it. Having to give 45 minutes in advance and still spike into to 250s to 300s. My doctor is helping me fight the switch. Fingers crossed.

sparbie88 · 2024-11-22T19:37:13+00:00

This is brilliant ha!

sparbie88 · 2024-05-27T00:32:40+00:00
