I'm ready for Christmas already but it's still a month away. Oh, well. At least we have the Christmas tree up. Today at lunch when my dad was bolusing me, he thought the ratio was 1:10 so he gives me 7.3 units. Then my mom checks the history and sees that and it turns out the ratio was 1:18. So my mom does calculations and finds out that I need 60 more carbs. So I eat a Fig Newton and chocolate graham crackers with marshmallows
how many people do you know that have diabetes

Another Spelling Bee
I was in a spelling bee today! I stayed in till I think the 4th round. I got out for astrophysiscist. What kind of word is that? The winning word was servallance. I was one of the last 6th graders though. The last two people couldn't spell chihuahua even though it's so easy. I can't wait for the next spelling bee!

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is almost here! I love the food ( and the days off from school ).
I'm gonna get new glasses soon. I don't know what they will look like though. I don't even know why I'm talking about glasses. Color time! THIS IS AN AWESOME COLOR. Sorry this is such a short blog but I don't know what to talk about.

Dexie is CRAZY
My cgm is so wacky. When I was about to leave school, vibrating, Dexie says LOW under 55. What the heck. It says 51 and down. So when my mom picks me up, I say it says 51 and down. We go out to the car and we test my BG. 95. Stupid Dexie! We put that in and it says no, your 62 and down. It can be so annoying sometimes yet so useful others.

CGM
About a month ago I got a cgm ( continuous glucose moniter ).We named it Dexie. It's AWESOME yet crazy. The first night I slept with it on, it went crazy. First it said 65 and down. About a half hour later it says 345 and up. My mom had to test me alot that night to correct it. Really I was in the 100s all night.
Last night my blood sugar got low. I had to eat 3 packs of Smarties. I didn't feel good after that. So after that my parents said that I could have chocolate milk instead of Smarties. Yay!

Diabetes month
Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't posted for a while. Happy diabetes month! This is the first diabetes month ever. I guess your supposed to wear blue every Friday ( blue is the diabetes color ). I can't believe it has already snowed! I love to play out in the snow, but after about an hour my blood sugar gets low. That's ok though because then I get to come in and have hot chocolate!
