A commenter asked about obtaining the Glucowatch.
Animas Corp at http://www.animascorp.com owns Glucowatch now. I would assume you would contact them in the US and find out if there is any way to get one in your country.
I’m honestly not sure of the price because of the ownership change.
Tonight was a tough strength session. When we finished, my blood sugar was below 110 when I got done.
Today went well. The Algebra I kiddos did well on the computers, we got our activity done — 7th period finished a bit early, but they usually do.
I was on my feet all day, and was in pretty good shape at the end of the day.
I have to be out of the house by 5:00 am tomorrow to get Marcie is a hunt test. More on that when we survive!
No pain this morning! I figured I might have some problems this morning.
The good news, is that I won’t be climbing the stairs as much today. I’ll be in one of my friends computer labs with the Algebra kids, go back to my room for the non-English speakers, and then back in her room for the end of the day. The computer labs are upstairs.
I think I am ready for today. It’s going to be very interesting. We haven’t done this before.
Don’t know how I feel about this. This is the news I’ve been hinting at.
Was told by the principal that they couldn’t find a new CS teacher and didn’t want to lose the PreAP/AP CS program. They can find an ESL teacher. I get to keep my Algebra I repeaters. 35 x 3 of the most interesting students you’ll every meet — right now, the new ones are tagging my room (graffitt) and stealing stuff — we got over that in September, I hoped, but I have a different set of kids. I get to stay in my room with them. We had a very high passing rate last semester, but many of them had passed 2nd semester and were only lacking first semester.
I get to go to the computer lab three classe periods and teach in that room for 4 days. For one day, I get to teach them in someone else’s class room for three periods. Longer story. Not worth getting into.
They haven’t had any instruction since school started.
Bet I lose more weight.
I will do what is best for my kids and for my school I’m also not sure I’m the best teacher for the ESL students I have right now — most of them are extremely low level — we have moved all but one student who had talent in math. Many of them have not gone to school before they came to ours. Some weren’t allowed, some didn’t have schools, and in one sad case, no one cared enough to make him go to school. I can teach high school math to non-English speakers who have some skills — they are doing well in the higher level course. I am not doing well with kids who don’t have skills.
Don’t know when the job change will happen.
I feel like the saint of lost causes — but then that was what I was unofficially canonized for when I was in college — I tutored handicapped students taking CS and the CS professors got together and unofficially canonized me for it. Hey, the pay was $20.00 an hour when Work Study pay was under $3.00 who wouldn’t do it.
I’ve blogged about it before and left a comment for his blog. I am definately allergic to Humalog.
Diabetes – Allergic To Medicine
The full prescribing information for several insulins, including Lantus, Levemir, Humalog, and Humulin, all warn about allergic reactions. They say that these reactions are rare.
If you need a physical therapist, I can’t recommend him enough.

Closest thing I can find to a website.
My doctor’s office likes him too.
Yep, it wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t graceful, I wasn’t where I needed to be all the time, but the dogs and I managed to make it through 1 1/2 classes of dog agility.
I did all of Maggie’s runs — they were pretty flowing and only a couple of front crosses — they hurt the worse — in front cross, you get in front of the dog and turn in front of them. As you might imagine, it’s hard on the knee. I do better with rear crosses as you drift behind the dog’s path to do those. Basically dog is ahead of you, and you move to the other side of the obstacle. Front crosses cause tighter turns than rear crosses, but like I said, you have to rotate on the knee and you are usually digging in and planting.
Marcie’s runs were tougher as they were in the barn, tighter, and almost all front crosses. We only did have the class, two courses, and the first one really bit us inthe butts. We both made mistakes. Marcie felt mama pain vibes and was running slow. Mother was behind all the time, even behind slow Marcie.
She’s a good dog though as she compensated for me on the second run and was perfect. Again not graceful, and I caused her some time wasting, but we got through it.
Best yet, is that even though I was still and sore when I got home, the hot tub releived most of the pain.
I love my PT!
It feels almost 100% this morning. I hope it stays this way
Next two days are going to be a mess. I have to get the furnace fixed this afternoon — provided the part is avaiable. I’m going to check on that fairly early. Have to get my CDE appointment fixed, since they want to cancel on me. Probably just skip it as I see the endo that day. She’s over booked.
I have to profile my students, which means giving them a practice test. That means getting copies. One of our copiers are down, and it’s the hardest to use for this job anyway. Hopefully the co-op teacher will let me borrow her copier since i’m careful to use it for emergencies and I gave her reams of paper.
Of course, I was told this yesterday evenng.
That’s not a big problem, since I really don’t want to start a new unit tomorrow. Grading and profiling is going to be a pain and will probably have to be done on Monday.
Because of my mystery news (which might not happen), I’m trying to keep everything graded, everything planned, and everything ready to go at a moment’s notice.

Was on my feet more than I should have been, but the Physical Therapist fixed it for the time being.
I can’t get over how good a session makes me feel.
I am going to try to train my dogs tomorrow night. I’ll let everyone know how it goes.
Almost forgot — got lab results — some values are NOT good but will know more on Monday. A1C was 6.6. Not my best, but not one of my worst since the pump (worst is 7.0 on the pump, my first few months).
