DBlog Week Day 2 - One Great Thing
I love to laugh. And make people laugh. In fact, one of the greatest compliments you could give me is to tell me I make you laugh or you think I'm funny (NOT funny-looking - it's important to note the difference).
I'd like to think I do a good job of infusing humour into this diabetic life of ours. Yes, diabetes sucks, but it will not steal our joy or ability to enjoy a good chuckle or two. A lot of it I have chronicled on this blog:
My what not to say video.
Awarding myself medals for diabetes-greatness.
Giving you a glimpse into my inner craziness.
Sometimes it has nothing to do with diabetes.
Even finding laughter after what was a very frightening experience.
It think that it's important that Elise grows up seeing that although I take diabetes very seriously, we can still laugh at it's expense.
laughing right along with ya...it must be an Canadian thing? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for making me laugh more...with you not at you!!
I'll cast a vote for some d-laughter south of the Canadian border! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love to laugh too and your sense of humor is what has brought me back to your blog again and again. Thanks for the laughs!!
ReplyDeleteYou are a rock star! I am not saying that just cause you are Canadian and a Vancouverite :-)
ReplyDeleteBut you are the mom I would have wanted if I had type 1 diabetes as a kid.

hells to the yes, if we couldn't laugh at this stuff then we'd really be screwed! thanks for bringing me and my fam so much laughter! :)
ReplyDeleteLots of laughter at our house too! It really is the best medicine and nothing makes me feel better after a long day with "D" than hearing my little boy laugh. Keep making us laugh Joanne! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYour snarky sense of humor is one of the many reasons I love you, Joanne! You rock at a lot of things! SO thankful for you!
ReplyDeleteLaughing is so much more fun than crying.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree! Jules.
ReplyDeleteI love that you make me laugh :)
ReplyDeleteagreed you have a wicked sense of humor...and it is extra awesome that you're really a northwesterner! And I've wanted to tell you that my mom even shares your video you made, she thinks it is truly one of the most hilarious things she's ever seen :)
