Morning

7.4 slightly better on the cold front, although lots of coughing overnight. Was supposed to be going out for dinner tonight as it is our 38th wedding anniversary, but goi g to have pizza delivered instead, I don’t feel like eating out, I am sure the other diners don’t want to listen to my coughing and nose blowing while eating, hubby is on early shift so been up since 4am and will need to be in bed again by 9pm, so goi g to have a belated celebration when he next gets a weekend off.

Lovely to see you posting again @Kaylz

And thanks again for helping Michael out 🙂
 
Good morning! I think my body clock has got confused as no pain or nightmares. A decent 6.9 at this early hour.

Sensor change today. Also should email a former work colleague. His daughter sent me his email address saying he would love to hear from me. He is about 20 years older but I lost track of him about 12 years ago as they (with his wife) used to spend six months abroad each year, moved house and changed phone numbers more often than my student mice back then!

Dark but suspect cloudy. Yesterday brightened up in the afternoon but around 4:00 it started getting dark as thick cloud rolled in and the temperature dropped sharply! :(
 
Morning all. Seems the DF is playing games with me this morning as I’ve scored a 10.1
 
Morning. 6.5 at 5.30 when I first woke. I tossed and turned until 6.30 and then got up, it’s now 7!

Very busy and tiring day yesterday. I went to bed at 9.30! Today is my cooking/prepping day. Wireless on full blast, ‘cos I can’t hear it with the extraction fan on, and COOK! Today is ginger and coriander chicken for our tea, our fave, then ratatouille for the freezer. Aubergines are so expensive these days it’s a luxury, I hope ours grow. 95p for a little skinny thing. Shocking. I also want to make up some bags of mirepoix to pop in the freezer for handiness. That’ll keep me out of mischief! ( Chance would be a fine thing!).

Have a grand day. Wet and windy is the forecast for us. Again! 😱

Still debating reducing my basal but waiting to see if it sticks like this. Apparently slightly low all night, scrolling across the readings, libre gives the lowest as 3.1 but mostly upper 3s. Libre 4.1 and finger 4.3 after getting up a bit.

Waking up in the airport hotel, ready to fly this morning. Ate the breakfast I packed last night though :rofl: (Banana and satsuma), appetite returned

A 7.2 for me and a decent nights sleep.
Had our Pizza late so I was 9.5 just on going to bed but decided not to correct and it went no higher and dropped fairly steadily in night.
Found a really nice lunch spot in Liverpool yesterday and a little pricey but contained asparagus and sun dried tomato and the inevitable cheese and was nice.
Wife in a much better mood now she could get in the garden and mowed lawn for first time and some lawn edging and we will both get in there over w/ end as a few little jobs to be done.
Anyway have a great w/ end all
 
Morning all, 5.7 here.
Another dry day forecast, so of course I’ve promised to go up to son's and help build flat pack furniture indoors all day. OH will come with me, and will probably do son’s gardening while we are inside wielding allen keys. Meanwhile our own garden is crying out for attention.
 
Good morning - 8.0

Have a great day everyone.
 
A 5.8 for me today. 🙂

No sign yet of the lovely, sunny Saturday they forecast so hopefully it'll brighten up soon. 5.7 when I tested at 07:23.

Wife is due to be picked up shortly for her weekend away with some of her friends. They met at antenatal classes when pregnant with their first-borns and have remained friends ever since - over 25 years now. Our eldest is golfing at 11 and our eldest has a 2-10 shift at Sainsbury's, so I'll be Billy No Mates again for a chunk of the day.

Didn't make it into Bracknell yesterday so will try again today, especially as I now also have a Click & Collect item to pick up from M&S as well as shopping.

Enjoy the start to the weekend, whatever your plans.

A stressful week just gone.

I'll never understand this BG thing.
Breakfast may have included oats and was around 30g of carbs. (I've been told by a GP friend, and the nurse to try to introduce more carbs in the form of healthy grains and see what happens)
Two hours later, it's barely moved and is just at 6.1.
I get higher results than that by just being stressed (Or engaging in Percy Filth.).
 
We were woken by the door bell going at 7am Currys deliveing our new washing machine they were supposed to deliver between 10am and 2 pm, not sure if waking with a start caused the reading on my new Libre but it was 9.9 finger prick was 5.1, its also had 3 breaks in the night and 2 more this morning,

Morning all - cold and grey. Can't have more than one sunny day in a row can we?

7.7 this morning.

Meeting friends this afternoon. Then home for something I cooked earlier - probably stuffed gnocchi in blue cheese sauce with spinach. The chicken dumstrick tray bake I made last night was really nice. Hubby has always said he's not keen on drumsticks, but you could have fooled me last night as he woofed them down!

@harbottle I can't look at your new avatar, it gives me the willies!

@pam you seem to be unlucky with Libres. I seem to be very lucky as they seem to really suit me and are very accurate. Some people are.

Yes its very frustrating this is the third one that seams to be playing up, before they have been mostly ok after the first couple of days, i got a replacement the first time, didn't bother replying the second one as it had 3 days left but I've kept it, will give this one until Monday to settle down then will phone them.
