Pride
Today was a proud moment in this house. Today was the day my Mum, my dear wonderful ’so to forward an email I click reply?’ Mum, learned to use iTunes. There was a brief moment where I nearly brained her with a mouse but she can now drag and drop tracks to her iPod, and import tracks to the library… We’re going to work on playlists and the rest tomorrow.
It was odd seeing the look of pride on her face as she listened to her iPod and discovered the tracks that she had ripped herself playing. It made me happy.
And that’s pretty much it - I mean I could sit here and write about the ‘preview’ of the Christmas Doctor Who but it would just be a lot of whiney crap so I’m not going to bother. I’m just going to stay proud.
But, I am just casually going to drop in a World Diabetes Day mention and link back to the post my Mum wrote last year on the subject (mostly becase she couldn’t think of anything for this year!)

Congrats to your mother. And congrats to you for not braining her with the mouse.
OK, I am pissed off. NO ONE over here did ANYTHING for World Diabetes Day. I mean, I didn’t hear a word about it. None, nada, zip! And I have two children under the age of 10 who are type 1 insulin dependant. They were diagnosed before the age of two! I don’t think I have ever heard of World Diabetes Day. No fair! How can America ignore such an important rememberance day?
delmer - I do feel quite good about not killing my Mum. Today, however, she nearly died over a printing incident. I am going to start training her from a long long distance.
Blondefabulous - There was nothing here either(except for one mention on a bad bad morning tv thing). Apparently Diabetes isn’t a sexy enough hing to get excited about! That’s why I try to push the message on this one day a year.
The more we make people aware - the more someone ight put some money into making it easier to live with… or maybe even cure.
