Today will be the sunniest day of the year, because I'm off to the eye hospital for evil drops and possibly scary injections 😱 :( Wish me luck!

6.4 for me today.

Eeek! Good luck, Northerner, fingers crossed!

A 5.8 for me today.
 
7.7 for me after a weekend of terrible eating. I need to draw a line under it and press the reset button.

Hope there is some cloud cover for you today Northerner after those eye drops.
 
Make Them Wait 5.8. Sweaty humid no-sleep night....roll on cooling down.

Mooorning! 🙂 7.2 here. 😛
 
Morning all a HS on waking and 5.4/5.8 post cat.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Good morning. I hope all is well with you all. looks like being another hot sunny day here in E Kent. Woke to a horrid 8.3 on Libre, not bodged my finger yet but its bound to be 1mmol higher. Sadly my flatfish became a leaping salmon around 03 00
 
Morning all, part two of the great basal experiment. Tried dropping the night time dose by half a unit ( from where I was originally, not from yesterday's experimental dose). Was 5.6 at 3.20am, 6.2 at 5.30am and 7.2 at 7.30am. I should definitely have left well alone.

It makes you want to bang your head against a brick wall at times, doesn't it.

Good morning gang, and what a lovely morning it is. I’m sitting on the balcony with a double shot espresso, and an out of bed 6.5.

Mind you, that’s fairly steadily dropped to 3.7 (3.9 on the steam driven kit), so that will be the tail end of Humalog used to correct a late night hypo overcorrection. 🙄

I knew this sort of thing would happen with the DF just a hop and a skip along the A59. Or is this just me being paranoid?:confused:

For sure, the dreaded Wheelchair Imp is still around. My mates at Millercare Mobilty came over yesterday morning to fix a puncture on my old electric wheelchair. The guy said he’d put tyre sealant in, do it shouldn’t happen again. Yesterday afternoon, went down into the village with Mrs B, in the wheelchair (she can’t keep up with the scooter). Got within 300 yards of home before that tyre started flopping round the wheel. Well, got out, and using it as a support, slowly shoved it all the way home. That probably accounts for the hypo, and why my legs are screaming this morning. 😳

I’ve phoned Millercare, who are probably getting suicidal. They still have my newer folding wheelchair. They’ve installed a new control unit, but that didn’t fix the problem. Motion Healthcare, who made it (in China, of course) aren’t returning calls. 😡

I’ve said this before, but it’s a good job I’m not a Buddhist, cos I’d be worried about what sort of evil sod I was last time around.:D

Equal PB at 5.4. Late evening fruit/milk/whatever replaced by 2 x Scotch => does the trick!
 
Morning all, an 8.8 for me this morning.
 
8.7 for me this morning and that's after pasta for lunch in Jamie's yesterday! and tonight we are going out for an Indian. Any suggestions what to eat?
 
Good morning from overcast E Kent , though it does look like the sun is trying to put in an appearance the clouds are winning atm.
It felt very stormy last night, still does a bit but sadly no storm or rain.
Before bed I was 4.1 so had a slice of cheese and onion quiche 😱, I’ve no idea how that got into the
fridge🙄, well my BGs got the hump literally and so did I when I saw the tr@ce this morning .
but it eventually settled down to a flatfish and 4. 9

Hope you all have a good day.
