Well, this weekend was pretty awful, diabetes wise. I went to visit my sister for Family Weekend in Shawnee. It started off really great when GF came up behind me while I was giving sister a hug and surprised me. I was not expecting to see her there. As you guys know, she's in Dallas right now so it was nice to see her.
The problems started on Friday after dinner. I looked in my bag and I obviously left my meter at home or work on Friday. I emptied my bag out and searched all over the vehicle we drove. It was nowhere to be found. This was so frustrating. I have had this thing for over a year and a half and I forget the meter on an out of town trip.
I went with my sister and GF back to campus to drop them off and after I arrived back at the hotel I prepared to take my Lantus. I had left my insulin in my sister's car when we driving back to campus. Talk about total failure.
What really sucked happened when we got back on Saturday. I looked all over my house, my office on Sunday, emptied my car and couldn't find the meter anywhere. I checked all of those places again and finally emptied my bag again. It was hiding in some far away corner of my bag and I felt like a total moron.
If there ever was a diafail weekend, this was it for me. I've never been so careless or brainless.
I guess it is time for me to move on and learn from this experience. Right after my 21 lashes.
