Spring flowers bring me so much joy…

on Sunday I picked up some daffodils for the house… as well as a bouquet for the office, a pot of mini roses and the cutest plant covered in blue flowers…

yesterday afternoon we had daffodils delivered at the office as part of the Canadian Cancer Society Daffodil Campaign...

this was how they looked at 4:30 yesterday…

here is how they looked at 8:30 am this morning…

open and sunshiny…

nice when a campaign raises funds and brightens people’s days…

having gone through a cancer diagnosis, I appreciate every opportunity to support the cause…

well, the results are in… been diagnosed with diabetes…

not exactly how I was imagining spending the next stage of my life…

I guess I should be happy that it hadn’t come on earlier in my life, as many of my elders dealt with the disease…

had been once to the doctor, and was semi-prepared for what I heard yesterday… already been cutting back on sugar, but I hadn’t even thought about having to stick myself with a needle 3 times every day…

been having a bit of a pity party but hoping to be over that in a few days…

good news is that I should be able to deal with this by watching my diet and getting more exercise…

a friend is diabetic and is a walking dictionary on the disease… another has a partner with it, and she knows tons as well… my daughter is on Weight Watchers and is sharing food information… so there’s lots of help for me as I move forward, learning as I go…

sad about the chocolate though…
