03:40 BS 7.8 It may not be as low as I’d like but, it’s certainly very consistent: 3 days in a row waking on exactly the same reading! 🙂🙄
Well, I finished watching all the episodes of Battlestar Galactica & what a trip down memory lane it was: really enjoyed it!😛 SOOHHH, I may be a bit less distracted now?🙄😉
An early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉 It’s Sunday so, have an easy, lazy day too!😛😎😉
Lesson learnt I guess. I shouldn’t have had that triple chocolate muffin whilst at the outlet centre, along with three squares of chocolate later in the day. That’ll keep me on the straight and narrow.
4.1 for me today. 🙂
Windy again today. 😡 So no walk this morning. I'm off to count our toilet roll collection. (Only joking - I think we need to re-order soon)
Morning, wild but mild is the order of the day. A shocking 7.2, the culprit, as per, rice! At least I know what happened which makes a change. No plans at the moment but that could change, yesterday we didn’t have plans and ended up going to he seaside. No paddling as the tide was the lowest I’ve ever seen it, hardly any water in sight. Very weird I must say. We felt like we could have walked over to South West Scotland. Was rewarded by curlews, oyster catchers, a wheatear and my first bar-tailed Godwits, so I was happy. Mind you we won’t be going on a Saturday again, it was like Picadilly Circus. We must have met, oh, about 10/12 others! We’re used to having that particular bit to ourselves. Have a smashing Sunday everyone.🙂
Morning all, 7.0 here. Who sent the Diabetes Fairy in my direction? Had evening meal bolus at 6pm, my usual 3 units of Levemir at bedtime (and I checked my pens this morning, I didn’t accidentally use Novorapid) when my BG was 8.2. (It had been 6.9 a couple of hours earlier, so not a contaminated finger, I don’t think).
Woke at quarter past midnight with a 2.5! How did that happen? Must be the DF. Over corrected with one too many JBs, hence this morning's 7.
If I'd got a Libre sensor on, I could look at the trace and see where it all started going wrong, but it ran out a couple of days ago, and I went back to fingerprick tests to save money for a bit.
Got busy with the knitting yesterday and took things nice n easy, which is certainly the way to go - feeling pretty good today. We’re going to nip into Carmarthen later to buy some books cos we’ve read everything! There’s a great shop that combines brand new and secondhand books - buy the latter and you get a discount on the former. We like discounts! 🙂
@Kaylz snap a puzzling 7.7 for me as well, I don’t know why. Ended up having my hair done yesterday but DIL couldn’t get my exact shade so am blonder than usual, not sure I’m keen on it 😳. Glasses still falling down my nose and am sore behind my ears so must get that sorted, I will have to go back to the opticians this week.
Sunny but a bit cloudy, supposed to be getting hotter. Have a good Sunday x
@SueEK mines is possibly having been awake since 5am lol, I'm absolutely shattered! My glasses have been digging in behind my left ear on and off for a few months now so I've just wrapped a plaster around the leg
Oh folks, no calls from Batman today so he might make it up on time for his fry up this weekend haha xx

Good morning everyone. A very surprising 4.5 for me this morning. Libre showed it went just outside target last night for a short time, probably down to the chinese food i had (yum) but very pleased this morning to find that.
Funny, i'm happy with 4s at weekends but panicky with 4s on a weekday as i have to drive to work risk hypos.
Have a lovely day everyone. Its going to be a nice one x
