Where Has The Time Gone?

Hello, okay first to start off, i've been a very bad blogger lately. I haven't blogged in over a month, and before that it was even longer than that.
Anyways, let me update you all on how things have been going lately. I forgot to update you all on my doctors appointment that I had in January. My PFT's were 95% which is great. Weight was about the same. But I got some bad news...i'm officially, yup Diabetic. We all knew it was coming we just didn't know when. But so far I should be able to control it with diet :) which is great. So now I am trying my hardest to eat 6 meals a day. 3 meals and 3 snacks, and I have to Carb count. I have to try to stay within 60-75 carbs for meals, and 30-45 carbs for snacks. Let me tell you that is no trip. Wow! Somedays if i'm in town running errands, i'll run into Starbucks(for those of you who don't know me, I love starbucks, and have a Gold card-anyways) and just get a small iced, or hot coffee, with a little bit of nonfat milk, and some caramel. Great snack under 45 carbs :) So for the most part I think things are going pretty good.
My gym membership is officially over! and of course, I forgot to renew my membership. It's $35 a month. Not the worst, but I think i'm going to keep it un-renewed until the winter months and try to do some exercises here at home--we'll see. If I can't stay focused it's back to the gym i go. But whenever this crazy snow decides to leave, it's back to running. We have a 1/4 mile uphill driveway so that's a good run, and my grandparents and uncle are just up the road so I can always run there, and my dog will love it also.
So I think that's all that's going on for now. I'm sure i'm missing some stuff, but I promise that i am going to try my hardest to blog more often. Oh, one more thing, it's Walk-A-Thon time. So if anyone is interested in donating to help find a cure and to help me hit my fundraising goal, here is my personal website: http://www.cff.org/Great_Strides/PaigeSchreiber6672 and also if you personally know me and would like to join my walk and come hang out with us, message me and let me know. Well I am finishing my VEST and it's off to bed! I will talk soon everyone!
