Ok, so I did it

I did it tonight. I gave myself my first shot. L in Dr. R's office had showed me how, and that was backed up by the pharmacist and Dr. B. I'd watched Youtube videos of it. And overall I really wasn't nervous or stressed out about it at all. Setting up and prepping seemed weird and I even video taped it. Still though it seemed weird and surreal it just wasn't that big of a deal. The only moment of hesitancy I had was when it came to the actual dart action to give myself the injection, but that was easily overcome. When the needle actually went into my skin I was relieved that I could do it. After that it was a piece of cake. Best part, nothing about it hurt. The needle is so thin I can't feel it and the liquid itself isn't thick so it doesn't hurt going in. The shot that L gave me last week made me slightly sore for one day, but I'm not getting sore this time. I think I'm going to be able to handle this. It makes me feel like not so much of a wimp. Seriously, I knew an 11 year old kid who gave herself insulin injections. I can do this. I can do this myself.  I video taped it and will put it up soon. It's late, good night
