Morning all, a 6.7 for me today and a steady line overnight again. Another full day at the steam fair and one of my favourite bands on tonight. Should be good.
Reporting another reading of 10.0 which is the 3rd on the bounce.
Sleepless night in this heat and my dog getting me up 4 times during night so he can stand looking out the back door.
Off to golf club later for Mayors Cup competition- players come from all over the country and the top 4 go through to Monday’s semi final and final...Needless to say I will be gardening Monday 🙂
5.3 for me this morning. One weather forecast says mostly cloudy with 40% chance of rain, t'other sunny with 0% rain. So far the first one is winning. I know I'll get wet when I walk into town later. 🙄
Morning all, you’re lucky I’m here this morning as only got to bed at 3am! Dirty stop out that I am. Well after a night of eating, drinking and dancing, 70s disco and Northern Soul, I woke to a lovely 6. I’m not hungover just tired so today I will dust off the sun loungers, or should I say wipe them down as we’ve had rain for much of August, and lounge about in this soon to be glorious Bank Holiday weather. Have a fabulous day/ weekend everyone whatever you chose to do. 🙂 @Anitram good luck in the Annual Smite World Championship. From what I can see you throw cylinders of wood at other cylindrical bits of wood, in a graveyard, and eat hotdogs! Sounds right up my street. Enjoy. 🙂
5.9 this morning which is really good considering I really let myself down yesterday and ate loads of chocolates that were left over from a cake I was making. Hope everyone has a good Bank Holiday weekend.
Good morning 7.6 on a lovely day,🙂 trying to keep figures high to stop them dropping too quickly.🙄 Well bank holiday weekend so everyone enjoy yourselves, except @Benny G who is working.
Have a great weekend @Anitram in Cornwall,🙂 hope the traffic isn`t very busy for you, although the radio traffic alerts say heavy build up at Tewksbury and Bristol.🙄
Phew it's still boiling at this time of the evening. Have to keep wiping my face with kitchen towel. 6.6 @ 8.01am and later in the day I was an amazing 5.8 at 4.56pm but dunno if it's the out of date strips. I was really 'good' today, ate a lot but my idea of healthy food then blew it with a soggy crust that Mum left followed up with a flat peach. That's the only thing with one illicit bite, it makes me want to keep on chomping.
Grannylorraine I'm dead impressed with your new icon! Wow. Looking good. 🙂
Bang on 7 for me this morning, not bad as out for a meal last night with family, half a bottle of wine, Bacardi and Diet Coke, lobster and crayfish followed by steak, pepper sauce, few chips and salad, was yummy (lick lips). Off to car boot, going to be a scorcher today so cap and sun cream at the ready. Enjoy your day and bank holiday all.
Sorry you are working @Benny G, enjoy tomorrow, hope you’re having a good time in Cornwall @Anitram , and I agree with Ditto, nice new photo @Grannylorraine xx
Good morning. A better 3.5 this morning, reduced both basal and bolus slightly last night. My next appointment with my nurse - who is not a specialist but is very kind - is not until September 20th. I'll keep experimenting with dosages.
