Morning everyone.

Not my usual self this morning. Just had some terrible news. One of my best mates on Mull, the Rev Johnny Paton, has been found dead on a mountain he was climbing near Ullapool. Didn’t fall, was probably a heart attack. Just 60. He conducted daughter’s wedding at Duart Castle. Lovely man with a great sense of humour. His wife Cathy must be devastated, as will the whole of North Mull.

I was 8.3 this morning. Bolus error last evening I suppose.

So sorry to hear this. 60 is no age.

Very sad, a shock to everyone who knew him.
 
Didn’t sleep well last night and was sort of rushing about today. Now sitting in car waiting to pick granddaughter up from dancing then to McDonald’s for her tea

Decided it was time to go back to work after 7 months off. Had last but one counselling sessions today, and call yesterday about a mindfulness course. It’s all happening here by wish it wasn’t cold and windy. Haven’t read all posts so I hope everyone’s ok sorry about the loss of your friend @mikeyB . As others say, 60 is no age at all

So sorry to hear this Mike. I know it’s probably no consolation to his family and friends but what a way to go, doing something you love, none of this lingering around just waiting to die. Hope you manage to get over to pay your respects. Take care of yourself. X
 
06:30 BS 8.1! 😱 It made me JUMP! Why so high? Had to take the bin out as I’d forgotten to do it last evening AGAIN! Then, extra insulin when I got back in at 06:45 & made chicken paste sandwiches with hot tea! I’m feeling a bit rough & snuffly as I’m munching but, it might be the cool, wet gander down the lane?🙄

Or it might be I underbolused for chicken casserole I slowed cooked all day for dinneryesterday. Can’t remember the last time I made a casserole & I just bolused my usual dinner dose, now 12 units, & went straight to bed without testing: took 2 hours longer than estimated as I put in too much water; too much water REALLY lengthens the cooking time in slow cookers!🙄

Ah, well! I just have to suck it up & I’ve had some extra insulin with breakfast this morning!

A very Good Morning to you all!🙂 The sun’s still in hiding here as it damp & chilly so, stay sunny on the inside, if you can!😉
 
Morning my lovelies 🙂

7.3 for me this morning, might have to push the basal up another 1 and see how that goes

Feeling rather rough this morning, had a thumping headache for the past 3 days :( Bubbles has to be at the vet for 10:30 this morning so fingers crossed the touch of infection he had is clearing up, REALLY don't want to have to go back to square 1 with him again :(

Hope you all have a nice day! 🙂

xx

5.8 this morning, same as last night.

@Kaylz I hope Bubbles infection has cleared and he does not need more surgery.

thanks hun, he seems perfectly fine, if it weren't for the cone of shame you wouldn't think there was anything wrong with him to look at him from the front, he's banging his tail on the bottom of the cage and on the floor when he gets out and certainly doesn't seem to be in any pain, whacked me in the face with it the other day though and it hurt me! lol, all we can do is hope xx

Wish him all the luck at the vet, he must be so fed up going there but very pleased to hear he’s doing well x

I use cornflower to thicken my slow cooked meals, I’m always too generous with the water! xx
 
Morning all. a 5.1 today 🙂

Retina clinic later, this one scares me sick after living with sight loss. Deep breath Flower ! I'm doing a recce of the grounds in an attempt not to walk into any trees, sign posts or other landscape features on my way out! 🙄 On the plus side for eye clinic outings it's raining and gloomy here 🙂

Have a good stable bg day all 🙂
