Hi Gail. I believe there is a sequel to Bend it like Beckham soon. I am not a football fan but I really enjoyed the film too.
 
Good afternoon folks. 6.7 for me this morning. Only had blood test for HbA1c at the hospital this morning. Apparently the cut off result is 65 so I am keeping my fingers crossed. Hubby did some shopping and nearly forgot to collect me. Luckily I texted him.o_O:rofl:. He drove me straight to my Tai Chi class and I was a few minutes late. We did observe a 2 minutes silence for VJ veterans part way through the class.

Hope you are feeling better @Grannylorraine
Good news about your husband's medication, @Pam123 .You could certainly do with a nice holiday after all the upheaval of a new kitchen installation.

Really warm here again. 28 degC. We need to collect our prescriptions shortly as we forgot to pick them up after my Tai Chi class. Looking forward to sea bass for dinner tonight. A nice treat we don't have very often
Have a good Friday and a better weekend everyone. Take care xx

I love sea bass. In my youth, I would go with a mate to his parents' home in Ireland and spend all night fishing for bass. Glorious.

13:12 BS 8.1 But, a flatline while I slept. Had a last minute before bed sweet & biscuits as BS had just slipped into the 4’s after a very, very slow drift down, that brought me up to the 7/8’s line & stayed there while I slept! 🙂

So, that tells me that 49 basal is the number & stuck in it again on the left thigh! It didn’t bleed this time but, still hurt a lot: both sides of me feeling sore, bruised & tender now when sitting down as yesterday’s right thigh is still sore; definitely can’t do that long term & using the 6mm from tomorrow!

I’ll call the health centre & ask about giving me the usual 6mm for the basal but, only 1 box as only for basal & 2 boxes of the 8mm for NR per month: only 1 injection a day for basal; 2, 3, usually, or sometimes 4 injections a day for NR?

And normal service DP rise, instead of the abnormal drop, until I ate breakfast so, I started higher & went higher but, pretty happy as basal is more or less there! Once that stable base is back, I can slowly work my way down a bit to wake with decent, mid range numbers & have some decent sleep at decent times? But, on the sleep front, I’ve never really stayed in a regular pattern for long!
