I grew up on a farm in the country in Virginia. I live in Pennsylvania now. I enjoy reading. I make patterns and do beadwork. I have fibromyalgia.
I enjoy reading and listening to podcasts. I am from Florida. I live in Florida. I am going to move to Tennessee in the spring. I am diabetic. I love sweets.
I am going back to see family in Virginia during the holidays. That sounds like fun. Which of your family members live in Virginia? My parents as well as much of my Mum's family so aunts and uncles and some cousins. How come you are moving to Tennessee?  Wow, you have quite an extended family over there. It will be nice to visit the place where you grew up, I bet. I have an old friend who lives in Tennessee, and we plan to share a 2-bedroom apartment there. It's always so nice to visit. That sounds good! It's always good to move in with someone you like rather than a stranger. What is your favorite podcast? I want to get into listening to them but I would need some recommendations as there are just so many to choose from.  I really like comedian Marc Maron's podcast, which is called the "WTF? Podcast". He interviews A-list celebrities and has an informal, casual interviewing style. That sounds fun! I'll give it a listen. What kind of sweets do you enjoy? Do you have to be careful with your sugar intake as you are diabetic? I love chocolate chip cookies, Flipz pretzels, gummy bears, chocolate cake, and really anything sweet. I do have to watch what I eat, or my blood sugar could spike and I would go into diabetic shock. Oh no ! Has that happened before! Sweets are so delicious it would be hard to cut them out of your diet completely.  It hasn't happened in many years, thankfully. Is your fibromyalgia under control? Do you have to take medication for that? It is thankfully. Yep I have to medication and have to go to the doctor's a lot for checkups. It does take careful monitoring but thankfully I seem on top of it for the moment. Do you have to self administer insulin for your diabetes?  That's good that it's under control. I can only imagine the pain you experience. Yes, I give myself the insulin shots, which has taken a lot of practice to do correctly and without any pain.
