when life gives you lemons?

What do you do when life gives you diabetes? Well to begin with I shrugged, then laughed, then cried, then told myself to stop being so stupid and get on with my life, and that was 6 whole months ago!!!! I proceed to leave London move to the highlands get a job and work my arse off all summer leaving myself as little time as possible to dwell on this new future.

So after settling down, adjusting to being a human pin cushion (admittedly one who likes to pull faces whilst being poked) and trying hard to get on with life, I found 6 months had past, I was about to finish work for the year ( I fancy some time off) and have a horrible creeping feeling that I'm letting life fly by and by sitting wallowing in my little corner of the highlands, feeding off self pity, am not really doing much with it.

So with that in mind I'm determined not to let a small things like 4 daily injections and 3 infected toes get in my way, (well unless they do the whole causing problems with functioning thing they are rather fond of). I'm going to start studying again, get out more and be more positive! I want to do more, write more, live more and I know this is totally radical but laugh more? I know I'm really pushing the boat out. 

So as I always tell myself kicks up the back side are a good thing and come in many shapes and sizes. ( this ones 5'4) right now I'll let mu health team figure out whats wrong with me and go forth and climb waterfalls.

So apart from trying to see what cool words I can come up with using the letters of my diagnoses ADDD???? Im going to shut up and even if its just me who reads this I know im doing muself a favour anyway.
