News Update!

Hi, I'm shellebelle, and you're not. ;)

Well, I'm employed at last! I'll be a receptionist at a technical school, answering phones, doing general computery stuff, and proctoring entrance tests. It looks like a very nice place to work, with nice people working there. I hope it's as nice as it looks.

In other news, I've just been put on Glucophage. Yippee, see my enthusiasm? The doctor says it will probably help me lose weight and it will definitely keep my blood sugar manageable. We'll see. If it helps me lose weight, that'll definitely be a bonus. It's been insanely hard for me to lose weight. *prays for no annoying side effects*

Joe started school on Monday, and it seems like he's doing well and enjoying it. Having him getting up so early means that we all eat breakfast together, and Liam has really been eating better in the mornings because of that. I think he really enjoys having a meal with Mommy and Daddy, and hopefully, we'll all get to eat together more often.

My son is also loving school. I don't seem to remember kindergarten being as academically minded as this one seems to be, but Liam is so happy to be in school, and I've had no notes home so far, which is good. (He tends to talk in class and be distracted a lot.)

Well, that's all for right now. Hopefully, I'll have more news later. Or not. No news being good news, what?

Yay! Congratulations on the new job and I'm glad everyone likes school. I guess the only thing I've observed with medication (my mom used to take the same one you have now) is that you have to eat regular meals so your sugar doesn't go down too much. Take care of yourself.

I hope so too. I would also like to be healthy again. *sigh* Yeah, that would be good.

I've read all the facts, and yeah, gas and yucky feeling so far are right there, but I just started today, so I figure they'll go away eventually if I eat properly and regularly. And of course, drink plenty of water. :)

Thank you for the congrats. :)

I'm so glad to hear that Liam is enjoying school and doing well!

And congrats on the job! I hope it turns out to be a good place to work.

Jack has never had any unpleasant side effects from his Glucophage and he's been taking it a long while.

Heh. I should take a poll on how many on my f-list have or know someone who has diabetes. :)

I'm glad to hear that so many are having success with it. I hope I do as well. And someday...I hope I can get off it and not have to take ANYTHING.

We can hope.
