We’ll be celebrating three big birthdays and two 25th wedding anniversaries once we’ve been given the all clear - can’t wait! :D In fact, my party dress arrives in the post today - you can tell I was in the Guides, Be Prepared!

Just the one dress!! Very reserved.
Mind you just not wearing jeans or walking trousers will be such a novelty.
 
Morning

Well Bubbles will be catered for with his pheromone calming diffusers for another 3 months, usual supplier were OOS and had no ETA for new stock so had a look around and found the full starter kit on Fetch down to £7.57 each so just bought 3 as the refills were £9.43, also got him some Encore pouches and pots while I was there

Anyway it’s a 7.3 for me today, looks like 4.5 oat nobblies would've been the way to go instead of the full 5 🙄

Morning all. 7.4 on this bright but windy day. Off to Sainsbury’s, such fun!!
Have a good day all x
 
Have my diabetes review later today. And an opticians appointment as I want to see if I can get mulitfocal toric contacts.

I’ve put weight on but last time it was 88kg and today 94 so not too bad.

Also tried the cupcakes yesterday (2 just to make sure) and they’re delicious. Something happens to them when they’re chilled which makes them moist and ridiculously decadent.
I’ve put four in the freezer which I’ll take out Sunday morning and ferry across to the folks as a surprise.
I think we will all hug too even though it’s against the rules.
Dad’s been vaccinated twice but mum and I have only had the one. His brother is currently in hospital with serious, and previously unknown, heart issues so his will be appreciated.

Mum’s birthday Saturday but I’m working that day so Sunday it shall be.
They better be in when I get there!
 
A 5.4 for me at 06:02 this morning so no obvious impact from yesterday's jab other than a slightly tender arm. Wet and windy start to the day in West Berks but seems to be calming down now.

Have a great day everyone.

POTENTIALLY TRIGGERING POST

5.3

Traumatic morning recounting my own experiences of sexual assault. Some happened whilst I was acting. Some was from guys I was with. Others were just random.

It’s all on Twitter.

Very sorry to hear about your awful experiences @ColinUK :( {{{HUGS}}}
 
@ColinUK very brave of you to open up about your experiences. Lots don’t and suffer in silence. Even if you only help one person to open up about their own experiences it will have been worth it. I hope you have had some form of help to enable you to come to terms with what happened. Much love. X
 
@ColinUK my heart hurts for you, good on you for sharing and I hope anyone having a similar experience will feel able to speak out and get the support that you didn’t xx
 
12:14 BS 7.9 🙂 Better than yesterday but, still late! I’m going to post & go back to bed! Yesterday was quite nice after the stormy weather the day before & I went out for a couple of turns in the lovely sunshine, still a bit huffy especially on the second circuit but, made it round slowly! My fingers, especially the typing one (right middle) has been peeling rather badly as it’s been over a week since my last vitamin D tablet & I STILL haven’t been able to get any from Tesco or my local ASDA: seems to be a shortage at the moment; been taking it all lockdown year as advised by GP for getting less sun than usual in lockdown! It was VERY nice to get a bit of actual sunshine on my face yesterday!😛😎

Was ok afterwards but, a hypo tried to creep up on me before dunner, oh ok, I wasn’t expecting one but, should have really so, was surprised by 18:48 BS 4.5 just as I was sitting down to eat: did feel a little bit off, couldn’t put my finger on WHAT, while I was cooking a rather hurried tesco finest steak burger, these are REALLY good if a tad bit expensive at 94% meat & very little fat, & the 4.5 explained WHAT that was! I drank a good few sips of the raspberry syrup cordial first, waited about 5 minutes, the longest I could wait as I was hungry, then ate before I decided to bolus -2 units than usual 28 units. A scrumptious burger in a large bap with ketchup mayonnaise & a slice of Coleraine Cheese, Coleraine is the next town up from me on The Causeway Coast & is known for its cheese referred to as “The Mellow Yellow”! The finest tesco burger was very moist for so little fat & I recommend it but, it is. £3 for 4 burgers! 🙂

I’m feeling tired out today & just want to rest! Maybe yesterday’s exercise was just a bit much?

So, a very late Australian greeting from me again 😳 for a Very G’day mates!😉

I’m off for another 40 winks or at least rest in bed! 🙄
 
I'm doing a @Lanny today. Totally lost my circadian rhythm. Crashed before dinner last night and despite setting several alarms to wake up and do evening stables, it was after midnight before I got myself going, by which time a full muck out was required, then home for something to eat and eventually climbed back into bed around 5am.
Woke and injected Levemir and a correction of Fiasp at 7am then back to sleep and my waking reading was 5.0 when I eventually surfaced. Libre is currently telling me that I am 2.4 and have been getting progressively more hypo for the past 2 hours but it is telling porkies as I have checked it twice and finger prick showed 4s and 5s. It ends tomorrow night so probably not worth ringing Abbott.
Oops! Just checked again with a finger prick and now 3.8!

@ColinUK Shocked and saddened that you have been victim to sexual assault particularly on so many occasions. It must be difficult enough to come to terms with being gay without suffering such abuse and feeling unable to speak about it. You keep mentioning that it must be worse for a woman but it is just different and I think perhaps more difficult for a man to speak up about it. I even wonder if it may be more prevalent in gay society because of that reluctance to report it. You are very courageous to do so now and I hope that it will help you to deal with your feelings by being open about it and hopefully help others who have been in a similar situation to share their feelings after reading your accounts. It must take a tremendous amount of bravery to even consider dating again after such incidents, so really admire you for that as well as your honesty in talking about it.
Also sending huge virtual (((HUGS)))
 
Just back from the opticians. She said I’ve a tiny bleed on the back of my right eye.
“Have you been at all stressed recently?”
Well this morning....

Appointment next week to see if it’s grown or vanished.

Cuppa now and then to the DN for my weigh in and foot tickling. I’ll mention the eye to her and see what’s happening for a retinopathy check. And she’s filling me with pneumococcal vaccine today too.

Thank you everyone for your support today.
