Nope, but the flowers Erik gave me had a little plastic cupcake on a stick. We went out for Indian food – enough carbs for me!

Well, I would say “happy” diaversary, but the fact that you’re still dealing with this 17 years later is hardly worthy of the term “happy”, is it? Instead, I would say “congratulations” because you’ve done a pretty darn fine job of managing things for that long, which is worthy of acknowledgement! I agree with all of your sentiments about diabetes not deserving any credit for anything, because anyone that claims it’s a gift is IMHO a hopeless optimist!! LOL
