Today is 11.1.11 (or 1.11.11, depending on where you live) and that means it's the inaugural T1Day! My dad sent me an email this morning that said: This morning on "TODAY" a group of women with Blue foam rubber "I'm #1" hands on declared today was JDRF day. Every little bit helps. Aww, thanks dad. (note: my dad does not actually read my blog.)
So even though I didn't really do anything for T1Day, I am pretty stoked that Diabetes Awareness Month is finally here, because there are so many things to look forward to.
+ The WDD Postcard Exchange
+ The World Diabetes Day celebrations
+ The Big Blue Test, in which I plan on participating multiple times in the next couple of weeks. Because every time you test/move/test/share, that means a life-saving donation for a diabetic in need.
+ Wearing my Diabetes Hands Foundation shirt for Blue Fridays. And Blue Mondays. And everything in between, including Blue Weekends! In case you haven't heard, I'm wearing the *same blue shirt* every day in November. You have Jacquie to thank/blame. If you're interested in following along, I'll be posting daily pics over here. But if you can't be arsed to visit yet another website every day, no worries, I'll post anything really interesting right here. And at the end of the month I'll compile a little video with all my daily pics. Because if there's one thing the world needs, it's some midwest housewife thinking she's the next Noah Kalina or something. IT'S FOR DIABETES AWARENESS, OKAY.
To get us started off, here's a pic of me and L, in matching shirts with matching cupcakes.
That picture rocks! I've been eyeing those shirts forever. I think it's time for me to get one too!
ReplyDeleteI need to buy some of those shirts! Love them!
