So it's a new year?

Everyone is telling me that its a new year. My response is so what it's just another day, week, and month. I haven't survived another year yet. That will be later this month when it will have been 49 years from the time of my entry into this world. That's when I start to get nostalgic and start thinking about renewal.

January 1st is the day I have to drag out a new calendar and for get to write 2012 on my checks. Yep screwed up my first rent check of the year. Now before you begin to think that I'm acting kind of like an a**hole and am being a downer remember that in a few weeks I'm going to have survived another year and that is cause for celebration at least in my humble opinion.

As for resolutions I don't make them since I have broken so many in the past (weak willed I guess). The only thing that I have stuck to for any amount of time is my sobriety and my marriage. The first is just over 30 years and the second is just over 24 years to a wonderful woman and the love of my life.

My diabetes seems to be behaving it self so far except for January 1st. Even though I had been in control and sticking to my diet with numbers around 114mg for some reason that only my body knew I woke up to a blood sugar of 224mg. and that was fasting. I think that I had a bad test though since the next day was back to 109mg. So I guess it just goes to show you not every day is the same.

Happy new year to those who observed it. I hope that you didn't get too drunk. ;)
