Happy New Year, All! I do wish you everything good and healthful and positive in 2007.
In all honesty, I’ve been suffering from a bad case of writer’s block when it comes to New Year’s Resolutions… What should I vow? That I will be a better person? A better diabetic?

Today is the second annual D-Blog Day, a day of rejoicing over our ever-growing community of diabetes blogs. Did I tell you lately that I love you guys?! (sniffle…)
As you know, there’s lots happening in the D-blog community, including of course nominations *now open* for the 2nd Annual D-Blog Awards. Apparently the policy is that last year’s winners don’t appear as nomination options, but will appear on the final ballot, so please keep me…
