World Diabetes Day is today, November 14th. The day is aimed to raise awareness of diabetes, its prevention and complications and the care that people with the condition need.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Before my husband was diagnosed, we had no idea what was wrong. He was losing his vision, his feet were numb, he was so thirsty all the time. We should’ve known from those symptoms but he has always been thin and healthy so diabetes never crossed our mind. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But, thankfully, someone at his worked asked him if he was diabetic. He tested his blood sugar levels and it was so high that the meter could not read it. That was a major wake up call. He went to the doctor and was diagnosed with Type 1.5 diabetes or also called LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
He still has the neuropathy in his feet and now has to wear reading glasses but he takes insulin, watches what he eats and monitors his blood sugars very closely. He is more in control of his diabetes, not the other way around. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Please join us and “go blue” today, November 14th. Wear a blue shirt, paint your nails blue or even dye your hair! Whatever you choose, show someone with diabetes that you care. 💙⁣⁣
⁣
If you want tips on how to manage or prevent diabetes, head on over to the blog and check out the new post. My hope is that it will spread awareness and help someone like us that didn’t know the symptoms. ⁣

Let the Halloween office parties begin!!⁣
⁣
Last week, I shared a mummy party favor that was a huge hit. This week, I want to share what I made for the actual office snack. ⁣
⁣
This little puking pumpkin was so easy and was the star of the party!⁣
⁣
I’m not a big fan of carving pumpkins but I learned a little trick to make it so easy. I waited a couple of weeks after purchasing it before I carved on it. This way it was nice and soft and I was able to cut into it with ease. ⁣
⁣
To make the face, I printed off a template of the puking emoji 🤮 and used that as a guide. Then I just layered the chips around the pumpkin and some spinach dip coming out of his mouth. ⁣
⁣
It was so easy but everyone loved it!!⁣

Happy National Black Cat Day!! Meet our rescue cat. We still haven’t decided on a name for him yet, so for now, we’re calling him Cat. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
He’s not a 100% black cat but he’s close enough. ☺️⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Any suggestions on a name?⁣

This little girl right here is full of energy and is as smart as a tack. ⁣
⁣
While visiting Amma and Papa this morning, she learned how to turn on the fire and warm herself up. I might be biased but she is just the cutest!!⁣
⁣
I can’t wait till she’s old enough to go on adventures with us and do some crafting with Amma!!⁣
