Good afternoon! 5'8 today. Haven't seen a morning 5 in some time, pleased with that.
Last night shift felt busy but was not as bad as I feared. The worse part was how late we finished, since only 2 of us were old enough to stay after 10pm and there was loads to do. Let's hope tonight I can go home earlier. At least I don't start so early tomorrow morning. I'm in a better mood today, even if a bit sleep deprived.
Yesterday I tried Tesco's roast chicken fillets with the mango and lime marinade, from the discount section, they are very nice. I also had a short diabetic chat with a guest who had his Libre reader and insulin on the table. I'm always tempted to say something when I see diabetic guests but I'm concerned they won't want to talk. However this man had had a few glasses of wine and was giving me conversation already so I figured it would be okay. I asked what type of insulin he had, he went "is Fiasp, why, do you have some understanding of diabetes??" and I showed him my sensor to prove I'm in the club We talked about diagnosis (he said back in his day the doctors suspectedp he had AIDS because of how skinny he was!) and how convenient is to have Libre now. He said it's something he has to live with and is not ashamed, so he didn't mind me asking.
