Wordless Wednesday

Current Bloodsugar: 144

I know it's "wordless Wednesday" but it is just too hard for me to be wordless.  Here is a variation of a post I did a while ago that I have adjusted for life with diabetes.

Lessons about living with diabetes from the residents of a backyard farm....

We all need something (or someone) to lean on every now and then...
  

Diabetes management is stressful...take time to relax and feel the sand between your toes...
 

Diabetes is like a pile of rocks.  Uncomfortable, heavy, unstable and always in the way.  But there are bright sides to every situation, you can always find a good use for a pile of rocks (like a favorite napping spot!)
 

 Friends and family are priceless and are an important part of diabetes management...
keep them close by....

 Exercise is very important....
 

Life with diabetes often presents situations that are big and scary.  Face these things head on and you may may find they are not as scary as they seem.
  Find the resources available to help you manage your health.  Use them wisely, make the most of them and turn them into something awesome!

It always helps to have some who can help look out for you, emotionally and physically...

It's great to have an outlet for your frustrations about diabetes...

Entertainment is sometimes the best medicine....

A good night's sleep is important for maintaining your health.  
Get plenty of rest....
 any chance you get....

Keep looking up..
 
and smiling....

and keep your eyes wide open...
you never know what the future will bring...
