Discussion of diabetes management in day to day life

S.O.-What works

After reading advice given on another thread I began wondering if we can
work on something positive to give to our significant others.  
Could we build a list of little things that get us back on track (or
keep us on track) without driving us crazy?

My favorite hubby statement…
"Thank you for watching what you ate when we went out to dinner.  It made
me happy to see you take such good care of yourself."

Least favorite statement…
"What are your numbers."

    I find controlling my diabetes is rather like driving my car: my
    responsibility, including being responsible for my ‘passengers’.  
    I can take criticism of my driving (and I think that’s rare, but heartily
    dislike a back-street driver.  I like it when my husband compliments
    me: ‘I wouldn’t have been able to park in that space’, ‘I think you’re
    brilliant’ (when I was testing every hour during illness).

    ‘Niiice chocolate biscuit’ (said _very_ brightly, with a forced smile, just
    before he snaps ‘eat it!’).
