Morning. 6.9 today.
It’s wet and miserable this morning so no gallivanting about. Did 6.5 miles yesterday and my hip/back/pelvis is protesting. I got ONE Christmas present yesterday, it’s a start! The biggest problem is there just isn’t any shops in town anymore and I’m loathe to go to a bigger city. I hate shopping as it is without travelling miles and still hate it. So,what do I do? Put money in Jeff Bezos pocket and more shops close down? It’s a tricky one. :confused:

Have a grand day all. And @freesia TGIF! 🙂
 
6.8 after an atrocious sleep.
Awarded myself a day of work today and I’m going to do nothing more than laze around in PJs and watch telly this morning before heading out for a stroll this afternoon.
 
Morning All
A 7.5 for me this morning
 
7.4 today. Had a prawn cocktail for tea yesterday with big prawns, I’ve decided I don’t like big prawns, small ones are much tastier and not chewy, disappointing!! Grey and raining here but not cold so that’s good. Just doing preparations today for having our new worktops/sink and taps put in on Monday, got to remove everything from the kitchen so I’ve had a caffeinated coffee this morning, I’m such a devil, knowing how to live it up!,
Have a good day all xx
PS as regards glasses mine cost £650 for varifocals from Boots, Specsavers put my lens in slightly ‘off’, couldn’t see a thing, felt dizzy and nauseous. They adamantly refused to acknowledge their mistake and so had to go to Boots, get a retest, they examined the lens, measurements etc and confirmed they had been fitted incorrectly. Specsavers also wrongly diagnosed my grandson as having really poor eye sight and after 6 weeks of him struggling with strong lens was found by an independent optician to have perfect eye sight. The optician involved was resent for further training, disgusting, although the manager was very upset about it but would never step foot inside a Specsavers again. I would be too scared to order online with such a ‘weird’ prescription, always need follow up for adjustment.
 
Morning

8.3 today, struggling to see the keypad it's that dark! Mum switched the lamp off and my keypad gets no light when the weather is as it is (raining) xx
 
5.3 for me this morning. 🙂

DEz
 
6.3 this morning, looking better 🙂

Don't know what sort of things you are looking for but RSPB have lots of nice looking stuff in their catalogue or on-line.
 
Morning everyone at 7:28am it was 6.9 and within target

My other tests
9:43am before breakfast 7.7 within target - 38g of carbs - 4.5 units humalog food - 0.5 units humalog correction
22:41pm bedtime and also 15 minute hypo check 5.2 back within target but below 7 - 8mmol for bedtime - had 2x rich tea biscuits and 1x 2 finger kit kat
22:20pm bedtime 4 hours after tea 3.8 no idea why so feel useless at not knowing why - treated with 4x dextrose tablets

A 6.1 for me at 05:57 this morning. Dinner last night was very late, more of a supper than a dinner which I suspect is the reason I am back in the 6s. Pouring down on the school run this morning but a bit brighter now. I suspect we might be in for a day of sunshine an showers. Have a good one everyone and remember it's the weekend tomorrow 🙂
 
5.8 for me this morning but hit 12.1 through the night so needed a 2.5 correction despite another 1 unit basal increase so I am back up to 5 units at bedtime now. Starting to get a bit frustrated with the lack of consistency these past few weeks during the night. It's really odd because my daytime levels and doses are pretty steady. I am almost at the point of dropping below 80% TIR and definitely achieving personal worst results on a daily basis just now. I know 80% is still acceptable but I'm not at all happy with it and 9% below definitely isn't acceptable but an improvement on the 10% I had a couple of days ago.
 
11:40 BS 7.2 Sigh! “WHAT a difference a day makes: 24 little hours” as sung by….I just can’t remember at this moment, so soon after waking! So, LR has gone back up as I THINK my cycle is over & no more low waking readings of the last few days? 🙄

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

This series of Rupauls Drag Race has been quite surprising & last night’s was the most surprising yet with nobody going, another lip sync to win, 2 Ru Peter badges anyway & the last 4 for the semifinal next week! But, all were absolutely brilliant in the acting challenge this week! I loved it! 😛:D
 
Disappointed my HbA1c came back at 42. Just into prediabetic - up from 40. Down to bad food control and exercise over the pandemic. Surgery already called to arrange a doctor's appointment. Likely to be pushed down the statins route....again
