The letter has arrived to remind me my annual review is in September.
So the voice in my head (or at least one of them) tells me “sort a few things out” before I go and get my bloods taken…..
It’s a natural thought, (this is where everyone tells me they never think this and I’m a bigger freak than we already knew), and I always tell myself, when I see that yearly reminder, that today is the new start that kicks of a few minor changes to live a bit healthier etc.
Reality is that I do.
I make the small changes.
I go to the appointment.
I always come out motivated.
I make a few more changes.
Then, life takes over.
It takes my focus
So each day I tell myself that “I’ll sort that tomorrow…”
I actually really enjoy going to clinic appointments.
I lead the conversation and don’t leave until I’ve covered everything on my agenda.
I go annually, which we agreed was what I needed sveral years ago.
However, this time I may ask to go every 6 months.
Why?
Annually gives me 365 “I’ll sort that tomorrow(s)” and that’s too many now I’m 25 years into this Diabetes stuff.
And as my dad always told me: “Tomorrow never comes”.
Live Long and Bolus
Grumps.
Its a grind, no doubt !!!
