Rule #9: Never go anywhere without your knife!

Hope everyone had a fantabulous Halloween! I know I did. I had so much fun dressing up this year. Although the black hair spray was a complete and utter failure. I had to wash it out right away and it got everywhere. I'm still finding weird black patches on my body. Oh, well! It was surely an experience. It was really ironic because there was an NCIS marathon on, so anytime mine or Steff's character would come on we'd be like "Yay, that's me!" Believe me, it was cuter in person. Steff looked ravishing as Ziva. She even wore gun holsters and had a knife on her. (Rule #9: Never go anywhere without a knife!) It was pretty bad ass! I rocked the gothic chic look. It was uber-fun dressing gothic. Once I can figure out how to get the pictures on my mac there will be an update. Promise!

There were some awfully cute kids trick-or-treating last night. I love the little animal costumes like the chick or dog ones. There was one kid who was dressed as (I think) bat-woman who wouldn't come anywhere near the door because of one of the "adults" costumes. And it wouldn't be Halloween without lots of candy and treats either. I ate too much cupcakes and candy for a non-diabetic. In my defense, I didn't eat breakfast or dinner. Ok, yeah, I made up for it in cupcakes, but they were really scrumptious. I don't regret any one of them . =)

Not too much else going on. I think I'm going to try to start doing Music Monday posts featuring bands with diabetics. If anyone has any cool suggestions, feel free to post them in a comment.

I really want to apologize for not updating. Between last week being my birthday and this week just being busy, I haven't had much time for blogging. I'm definitely going to try to get back into a schedule soon enough.

So what's been on my plate lately: a whole lot of nothing actually. Celebrated the birthday for almost a week (hey, 19 has to be good for something, right?). And really just preparing for my youth group's weekend. There is a lot of work that goes into these weekends... none of which I can talk about here. =) But I can say that there is a LOT of love, prayer and especially time that goes into making this weekend as awesome as possible.

I also can not believe how much trouble I've had with sleeping as of lately. When I was in college I could fall asleep whenever, wherever. Since I've gotten sick, I go to bed whenever my brain shuts down and I wake up anywhere from 3 to 6 or more times a night. It's just weird and really frustrating. I'm obscenely tired all day long but boy when I get a chance to sleep or nap my body just refuses. I'm trying not to eat or drink past a certain time, no T.V., no electronics, but nothing seems to work. I have been taking benadryl once a week, which I do NOT advocate at all, to catch up on sleep. Seriously, don't do it. I'm just doing it because I need to get some sort of sleep at least once a week. Unfortunately that's the only way that's working right now.

Oh well. On the bright-side, it's almost HALLOWEEN! Yay!!!!!! I'm dressing up as Abby Sciuto from NCIS. Black hair and all. Hopefully some awesome pictures to post after this weekend. So what is everyone else dressing up as? Doing anything exciting?

Until next time,
Peace, Love & God Bless
