Good luck at clinic Karnak. Nice day here, white and crisp-not sure if snow or frost
 
Good morning. 8.1 for me, shouldn’t have bought those dark chocolate ginger biscuits at m&s, or shouldn’t have eaten them. Have had a chocolate craving for days. Slept late, think I,m hibernating.
 
I’ve gone up to 12, would that be because I am soooooo cold?

Boiler being mended as we speak, but dear god it is so cold here.
 
Good morning Inuit🙂

I woke in the night with one of Robin’s Schrödinger’s hypos. Once I’d turned the bedside light on and managed to stuff a strip into the reader, I discovered I was 3.2. Corrected that courtesy of Maynard’s finest, and it was then that I became covered in sweat and feeling spacey. Weird. I just turned the light out and went back to sleep. Just goes to show how people can easily over treat hypos. :confused:

Overslept, woke on 7.1, so that’s the correction plus a touch of DP. That’ll do.🙂

It’s not as cold today here in the Valley, so I may shoot down into the village. I didn’t get out yesterday- a dense fog descended just after lunch, and the last thing I wanted to do was trundle out on the road in a scooter, even though it has lights. Might have been the last thing I ever did😱

Have a good day, everyone, stay warm.🙂
 
VERY late on parade today but, that's because it's the 2nd. time I've woken up today!😱🙄 First time woke just before midnight alarm at 23:55 BS 4.9. I 'd gone to bed just after lunch yesterday when it started to get dark due to snowing around 2pm. Decided it was WAY too early to post & ate then back to bed. Finally slept around 9am & woke just now with the midday alarm 12:08 BS 10.9.:( maybe because it's very late?🙄 Not very hungry yet but, clearly need some bolus, with the basal, so, ate 1 ham sandwich left over from midnight with 2 thirds of my usual dose: made my usual 3 with 2 cups of tea & only managed 2. I might also point out that I use Kingsmill No Crusts which is half the size of a normal loaf & the slices are half the size too! In case you think I'm a greedy pig!😉 I CAN be at times!:D

There's been super bright sunshine today since just before 9am, when dropping off to sleep, because of the refection off the snow!😎 So, I'm enjoying some more winter sun in bed. It feels quite a bit warmer today & the ground snow has almost melted leaving the deeper drifts on the foliage & roofs.

I'm glad to hear your boiler is being fixed today @Madeline 🙂

I wish you all some bright winter sunshine on the inside to keep you warm!😉

05:32 BS 7.3. Ok.🙂 The snow has almost gone now. Just as well as I need to pick up prescriptions at the chemist & some other things I need to do in the town!🙄 Not hungry yet so, usual half oatcake & half usual dose.

It’s still dark outside so, can’t tell yet what kind of day it is!🙄

Regardless, I’m wishing you all bright sunshine to keep you warm on the inside!😉
 
Morning all, 5.9 here. A couple of inches of snow so far, and it’s still coming down. According to our local website, trains are running on time. If that’s the case, it’ll be the first time in about a year, our local line is not known for its punctuality.
 
Late to bed, determined to finish a wee baby cardi. Freezing and white here this morning. 8.1 for me but better levels yesterday. Glad your boiler is sorted @Madeleine. I won’t be going anywhere first thing, white out but think it’s a light fall of snow and not just frost. Found yesterday that something has dug three separate holes in two planters and flowerbed don’t know what is about?

Squirrels? We watch ours digging up a nut, then reburying it somewhere else, we get holes all over the lawn, and they dig up our bulbs, the little perishers.

These holes are about four inches deep. Thanks Robin, I have never seen a squirrel in the garden, but usually at work. Must ask my neighbours as well

That seems deep for a squirrel. Mice/voles/shrews looking for food, perhaps, all the worms will be deeper down in this cold weather.

Mmm. Never had cats digging and as you say, deep
 
Morning to my frosty Friday friends, not quite so cold this morning it’s “ only” -2! Light dusting of snow overnight, I won’t need the tennis rackets for the bottom of my wellies yet. A usual 6.9 today. It’ll do until something better comes along. Hip and back not so good this morning, may have overdone it a tad yesterday. Well the ironing won’t do itself! Going out for dinner tonight with the bros, not Luke and Matt, but 3 out of 6 of Mr Eggy’s brothers and their wives. The other 2 live away. We always have a good laugh and have been known to get a bit raucous and tuts have been heard amongst the other diners. We don’t throw food or another like that, we just get the giggles big style. Hope my back can stand it, I’m sure a couple or 5 glasses of crisp, cold Sauvignon Blanc may numb the pain. 🙄 Have a good day and hope YOU don’t have to get your tennis rackets out! :D
