Ljc said:
Good morning folks. Had a shortbread finger , yes I managed to only eat one :D for a pre bed 3.8 and woke to
4.8 with a nice flatfish.
Think I’ll try another half unit reduction in basal.

By mistake I bought some cherry Coke Zero, I tried some yesterday, it’s vile.

I put an order in for my meds on 05/11/19 . phoned the chemist yesterday to find out where they were, we will get the. today, this is the third month this has happened , they don’t get put in the area for delivery , the other thing that happens often is, no note for the delivery driver that their is a prescription item in the fridge, so I don’t get my insulin I do make sure I have some spare meds for both of us

Take care everyone an£ kerosene warm.

Morning folks, just a quick visit.🙂

4.7 for me this morning, not a worry. Had a custard cream with the morning lump of double espresso. Went down into the village yesterday afternoon - gae cold, caused my BG to plummet when I got back. Burning up internal fuel to keep warm. Frosty this morning too - the fields are still covered with frost, despite the sunshine. 21degrees indoors, which is where I’m staying🙄

Had a phone call this morning from the Walton Centre in Liverpool. That’s a flagship neurosurgery/neurology unit at the Fazackerly Hospital in Scouseland, not far from Aintree racecourse. Got an appointment on December 12, which is nice. Might actually get a diagnosis. It will be interesting if there are any med students around, see if they can get all the possible diagnoses. One is bound to say tertiary syphilis, I’d put money on it.:D

That’s a week or so before my new granddaughter gets extracted through the tradesman’s entrance.🙄 I like baby girls, they don’t pee in your face when you change the nappies.🙂

Anyway, I’ll keep you informed of any progress, and whether I can confidently renew my Rovers season ticket.:confused:

By the way, Amanda, a few years back I had a phone call telling me that my mother in law had popped her clogs. I told Mrs B, who just said “Good”. You can pick your mates, but you can’t pick your relatives.

Nice to see you back Mike, was just thinking about you yesterday, shhh...don’t tell Mr Eggy or Mrs B! When my dad died I went to his funeral just to make sure he was dead. Harsh? Nope!

:D
You’ve got it bang to rights guv.
My iPad’s got a lot to answer for, it has on occasion sworn at friends and accused one of erm , being a lady of the night😱,
 
Rather late post. Its not quite morning but it feels like morning.....about Saturday morning I reckon. I feel asleep about 1am the children were ‘partying’ with haribo and mowams in their rooms til way past then and then woke me up with excited chatter and screaming at 530. Quick scan was a 4.7 and falling. Haribo ??? Share please kids???

Fantastic day ...... assault course, raft building AND testing on the lake THEN giant (8 kids at a time) paddling boarding .........in November AND it was -1 when we started out. All asleep now strange that!

another action packed day tomorrow - it’s so hard been a teacher ! Love it

Hope everyone had a good day with various visits and outings.

I do love cherries just not in drinks , unless it’s Kirsberry and I only drink that on special occasions as it’s very potent and tastes like it is very high carb 😱:D, one glass of that and I get very giggly. :D

Nice to see you Mike.
 
Good morning folks . Woke suddenly needing a very urgent wee , scan said 3.5 , this is a gud sensor so I knew it was pretty close , glucose tabs installed (yuk) I am up in the 4s now .
I think I will drop one unit off my Basal today rather than the half unit I have been doing as I’m still heading off most hypo due to the Libre. I have no idea why my Basal needs suddenly shot up so high other than than the weather or the DF.
Wrap up warm folks
 
Good Morning 6.5 for me today
 
Morning, woke to 6.2 after going to bed on 6.7, need to reorder libre sensors, that should be fun after farce last time.

6.6

morning all. Another cold, icy but dry day. I’ve just enjoyed waking up the little darlings this morning. All of them still fast asleep!

Have a good day all
 
Morning all 🙂 and today it's a 4.5 :D.
 
Morning all.🙂 4.2 here.😛

Welsh conversation group this morning. I was all fired up with confidence last week, but I can’t seem to string a sentence together this week.🙄 I know it’s part of the language-learning process...but it’s so frustrating!:confused:😱:D
 
Good morning 🙂

6.5 for me after a digestive biscuit for a 5.8 at bedtime

After getting home for the day at 4:20pm I couldn't get warm no matter what I tried so didn't sleep much with shivering, must have a look at the tog of my current quilt!

I'm not going out today though as I'll need to wait in on Hermes for my new duvet set

Have a nice day folks! :D
xx
 
Morning all, 6.1 here. Woke up to a power cut, whole village eerily dark and silent apart from someone's burglar alarm going off. Luckily power came back on ten minutes later. Can’t cope without a morning cuppa.
 
Morning again all, very windy but dry day. Had a good time but my brother and his wife yesterday. Went out to the Range for some Christmas shopping and had lunch in their cafe, not a single thing suitable for diabetics. My brother is now pre-diabetic and was disappointed to see him have a toastie, cake and crisps. He is as slim as me and I realise it is difficult when little choice but I did say to him that perhaps he should just have had the toastie and not the cake and crisps. Anyway I can only say so much. Back to business 7.7 today, fed up with all these 7s but there you go.
@KARNAK take care and rest up today.@Kaylz hope you have warmed up and ankle not too bad.
Have a good day everyone xx
 
Back in the 5 range today, 5.6, after a few days in the upper fours. 🙂
