4.9 today - although a bit of a hollow success...
Went to see my dr yesterday who “simplified” my pump basal rates so I woke up at 1:30am with a 14 and had to correct! Perhaps it’ll work better tomorrow...?
Morning all, a fairly ordinary 5.9 today .
Taking a long time for me to get my feet out of bed today. I'll be working 36 hrs and on Monday another 24. I'm used to the long hours but sometimes one day between doesn't feel like much rest! Look at me complaining after 1 week of annual leave, eek. Time for coffee.
Enjoy your Bank weekend folks and @eggyg have a great time in Scotland!
I had to Google that! What sort of half breed am I not knowing that? 😉 Unfortunately, I have neither a quaich nor a liking for whiskey. Which is a shame as it sounds quite romantic. Although, to be fair, sitting outside a pub on the west coast of Scotland on a wet and windy May evening, doesn’t!
Good morning from Bristol!
A 5.5 for me this morning at 0615.
A later than normal dinner of roast duck and Mediterranean vegetables followed by work prep till 2330
Hound and I have been out and about to do his business and sniff a gazillion lamp posts and trees as well as pick up coffees for Madame and I.
After the school run, I have a few conference calls , my first Covid vaccination and a GP appointment to look at this pesky leg rash then a quick run to Waitrose for stuff.
A long weekend has arrived, although I'm having to travel over to London Monday as I need to be there very early Tuesday...
Wishing you all a super day no matter what you're doing. And needless to say, a fabulous weekend!

I did that! Apparently, the (2nd) error I made was pressing the home button immediately to see if it was still working and that’s what fried the electronics, apparently I should have dried it out first. This was in the days before the “waterproof” claim...
Morning all, 8.5 here, couldn’t get my BG up from the 5s to go to bed on (and if I’m in the 5s at bedtime I dip into the red at 3am) so overdid the bedtime snack.
My iPhone isn’t that new and is waterproof. Such a good thing as I’ve dropped it into the washing up before!
I very unusually woke up at 2-3am feeling hypo. Took me a while to realise I should test but when I did it was fine at 5.6. Now 4.5hrs later I have a really bad headache but bg 6.6, so must have just been general feeling ill in the night I guess

Got my latest one in December. Could be a manufacturing fault as happens. Apple were great when my iPad failed. Maybe this is a sign I should switch to Android!
After school run, heading to the city centre to visit the hallowed bunch. I intend to leave the premises with a new one...
I hope you're feeling ok - those BG numbers are good!
