Looks like the Diabetic Fairy is visiting us both today . I was in the 8s at breakfast then hour and a half later it had shot up to 15.7 going up fast!! I corrected and it came down to 7 before lunch. After lunch it dropped to 4.2 then shot back up to 8.7 so i went for a walk. Now 9.6. I think its just one of those days.

Same, all over the place today and can’t work out why.
 
HI folks been very erratic for me too. Went for a walk along the Torbay trail about 4 miles.

Going to settle down now for the night, hope you all sleep well?
Goodnight folks take care.xx
 
6.4 for me. Our bedroom being plastered today at long last. Going to choose some new glasses after work so that’s just over £1000 gone just like that aargh 😳 😳.
Have a good day x

Is that just the specs, or the bedroom too?
I reckon I’m going to ask Specsavers for a refund on my specs. Five visits and they still aren’t right.
 
Many years ago when I was a lad I worked with a Polish chap in his 60’s. He always came in to work on Monday morning and said, “Blue Monday”.

A pleasing 4.7 this morning.
 
4.8 for me this morning. 🙂

Have a safe day.

£550 for the 2 bedrooms and been quoted £502 for the glasses, that’s if I choose the cheaper glasses. Because of my astigmatisms I need the platinum varifocals so that’s what pushes the price up so much. It’s annoying that I don’t get any help towards them but hey ho.
 
Morning all. 🙂 4.6 here.

Apparently, today’s is the only half-decent weather for the week, so I shall be in the garden - if you need me.😎
 
Morning all.7.1 today. After torrential rain almost all day yesterday and especially last night, it’s appears to be quite calm. Very autumnal though, the grass is definitely jewelled as my children sang in the Harvest Festival service. Granddaughter going home this afternoon, which coincidentally, is when she will probably get out of bed! Nothing exciting planned except maybe trying to get rid of the earworm I’ve just given myself! “ Autumn days when the grass is jewelled and the silk inside a chestnut shell”. Oh no! 😱
Have a great day and I hope your grass is jewelled!“ No I mustn’t forget, to say a great big thank you, I mustn’t forget.”😉
 
Morning

Was speaking to a friend of mine on facebook messenger over the weekend he's English, we got chatting about him wanting to visit Wales as he likes storms and theres always been on when hes gone in the past, got onto the way people talk and how most English struggle and think the Scottish talk fast, he put it the funniest way I've heard it - “its like opening a word document and removing the spaces” lol

Anyways its a 6.3 this morning

@Gruers good luck, hope the procedure goes well


And last weeks stats are
Waking Average - 5.5
Total Insulin - 170.5U
Bolus Insulin - 58.5U
Basal Insulin - 112U

Have a nice day and stay safe folks
xx

The word document part was about Scottish people talking fast, I know a few English folk that have told me to slow down when I think (and am to other Scots) making perfect sense

I like the Welsh and Irish accents, do you ever visit Wales? I know of people who have lost their accent but it always seems to return when they visit "home" for a few days

Good morning all. 8.9 at breakfast here this morning. I think the DF is toying with me again today. Levels in the 11's at first before dropping.
Looking at Libre, despite being well in target at bedtime, my levels are rising to 12's overnight and staying consistently like that until just before i wake. For the past week now my breakfast levels have been erratic. Time to increase basal slightly. Thoughts?
@Michael12421 , i hope you get things sorted early this week
