You Know You Have Diabetes When …

You know you’re a diabetic when … you see what appears to be this:

Fruit in my shoe - not a blister.
Making you hit this:
OH GOD NOT THE PANIC BUTTON!

Oh diabetes.  You are warping my little brain this week!

(And this whole “You Know You’re a Diabetic When …” concept is not new.  There’s a Facebook group, a TuDiabetes discussion, and a blog post on Diabetes Mine.  Apparently, there’s a lot of this going around!  Have you had these moments?  Share ‘em!)
