first real night on the tiles since diagnosis last year tonight and I aint planning on tacking my man bag with me either..
10 years ago, night out would be "Money - Check, keys - check" - pockets not too full and I'm outta here....
Tonight however is "money - check, keys - check, test strips - check, novorapid - check, needles -check, monitor - check, lancing device - check, spare lancet - check, dextrose - check"....
Kind of funny and to think this time last year I would never have believed this would be the way my life was going to go...not bothered though, really positive about my diabetes and it does not control me, I control it...just made me laugh when I started thinking about what I need to do tonight....
Imagining being a teenager with T1 and fumbling for a condom in the heat of the moment and pulling out a foil dealed test strip......taking out your mobile to get a girls number and grabbing your monitor by mistake....would make a funny film if they ever made one.
