Today is the day.

Here we are, less than 24 hours since we made it back from our trip to CA, and we are greeted with
a) two kids that do not know what time zone they are in, or will be sleeping in
b) a bill for $670 for test strips that were apparently shipped a few days early and were therefore *not covered* even though they SWORE they would be
c) a pancreas that decided to further it's journey to total crapped out-edness while we were in another time zone for 2 weeks, therefore leaving us with an almighty MESS of basal changes that may or may not apply to the time zone we actually live in
d) two family members flying in tomorrow for the walk this weekend with exactly ZERO sets of clean guest sheets
e) expired milk
f) promise of approximately 100 JDRF Walk t-shirts that "have a little formaldehyde in them" that should probably be washed before the walk that are hopefully arriving less than 24 hours before the walk.
g) a day that one year ago, saw Liam in the hospital being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. A day that means so much and so many things to me that it warrants more than just a side note on a list of crap. Stay tuned. If I don't get buried under laundry before tomorrow, I'll be back!

  9. Our walk is this weekend as well. And our shirts are a little stinky, too. Will I wash them, who knows if I will get that far. (Last time I order from the online discount printing store. Biz cards, yes. Shirts, no way.)

    The stinky shirts were too big for the kids, so I have some coming from Pump Wear for them on super-duper rush order. And I am positive they won't stink!

    Hope you guys adjust to the time change quickly. And WTF with the bill for test strips. That's crazy.
