I'm pumped

Easy as pie? Not quite. There are still quite a few optional features of the pump that I'll someday learn and use. And there are of course some tests still ahead: for instance, my first night sleeping with both my wife and my new frequently-beeping companion. Probably not a big deal, except that I'll want to compulsively check blood sugar levels and verify that the pump's behaving itself during the night. One additional problem I'm contemplating: besides my wife and me, our bed is frequently occupied by one or more of our cats, and Tanya warned me that cats love to chew on pump tubing. So, either I cover up the pump's plumbing, or worry about inquisitive kitties.

Well, I gotta go: it's almost time for dinner. And time to check another blood sugar. And push a few buttons to deliver my supper insulin dose. I'm pumped!
