I never had that luxury of working outside except when I was young & tried my hand at construction for a year. I loved it but me being a diabetic type 1 I knew better then trying to make this a career. Worked in food service, even became a sous chef. Then found my true calling, draftsman, which I had trained all my school days. Stayed skinny also. A great side effect of diabetes. Not really

Now, I have nothing but my indoor & outdoor garden to keep me busy.

THANK YOU AFN. YOU HAVE REVIVED MY LIFE!!!
I know, I know. When you see my age everyone says you are young, but my docs say since i have been a diabetic for so long my body is 10-15 tears beyond the normal because of my medical history...
3 transplants
Legally blind
Loss of feeling in my legs feet & hands
2 strokes
Many surgeries
Wow, sorry if I went too far on spilling my beans.
