Know what amuses me? Of all the DBlogWeek prompts, this one is the most challenging! We have discussed changing the world, mental health, our personal mantras. I have written about these with ease, only to have this ease obstructed by a pebble. It’s absurd! I love absurdities! For this I am grateful…
Confession: I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, a “neat diabetes tricks” kind of guy.
If your pump clip breaks, put it in your pocket. That’s my most marvelous trick. Call me Mozart! My creativity knows no bounds, and I am prolific in my output.
In all honesty, I am the Justin Bieber of diabetes tricks…
Does that analogy work?
Nah… I don’t share my “neat” tricks, so I can’t be hated for doing so.
In all seriousness, seriousness has been lacking in my tone thus far. Really though… in all seriousness, that last sentence was stating the obvious.

Haha, I’ll have to remember that hack next time my pump clip breaks!! 🙂 I love a good lighthearted post, thank you!!
My pleasure
Haha 🙂
I used that hack when I was on my pump, and even when I was using the clip. (Just clipped it to the pocket and VOILA! Doesn’t fall out as much! lol!)
When I was younger I actually used to clip my pump to the front of my bra, since a) a majority of the time the site was on my stomach, and b) even when it wasn’t, I used the longer tubing so it wasn’t pulling from the injection site being up that high. Of course now, I hardly attach anything to my bras, because I feel like that’s just something youngandimmature!me would do, Plus, its kinda awkward anyhow just reaching under your shirt from the collar just to check something on the pump or deliver a bolus.
I have never thought of clipping it to my pocket. If I ever get around to getting a new clip (not guaranteed) I will have to start doing that. It does fall out of my pocket quite a bit, so that would be handy,
