Thanks my lovely, I got a t-shirt and earrings from him, I'm obsessed with stars and saw a 3 pack of star earrings (ranging in size) and commented they were beautiful so he bought them xx

Morning all,
A Heinz special at 5.7 for me today!
Still aching after a 'mega' patio onslaught yesterday, perhaps I shouldn't have done the 5k run too!
Anyhoo, number one son came round and guess what? He had surplus materials left over from his patio work (its a family trait 🙂 ) and he brought it round for me!
Blessings Snowwy
 
6.4 for me today and another exciting day ahead. Got in yesterday to 25 tasks, I thought ok I can handle that and 62 pieces of dictation - I just laughed, on my own, in my little office. At the end of 7 hours, with more dictation coming through I still had 41 on the screen when I left, what a joke. Apparently the situation was brought up in the doctors meeting and they’ve suddenly realised that 2 of us can’t do 4 people’s work - gosh what a surprise!! SO off I go again and I will just prioritise as I always do.
Went to the opticians as well yesterday, they have changed my frames and adjusted them and we agreed to give it another couple of weeks to see if my eyes settle. Very helpful they were.
Have a good day, looks like we are going to need to put the shorts away. Take care all and have a good day xx
 
Pasta for tea last night, albeit only 60g weighed out which is 19g of carbs.

So, it’s 5.4 from me this morning.

Have a great day.
 
Morning

Rang the health centre yesterday to see about speaking to the pharmacist about having my Tresiba increased as I’ve upped the dosage since I switched to cartridges and it’s lasting the same time as my NR so thought it would be easier to have the same amount of each rather than ordering them at different times, well she decided to just put MOST of my diabetes meds and my BP pills on a serial prescription, just need to call the chemist now to talk it through and set a start date etc

Anyways its a (below) for me today

Total Insulin – 198U

Bolus Insulin – 65U

Basal Insulin – 133U

Have a nice day folks

Morning everyone. A 5.1 for me this morning. Its supposed to be a lovely day today and i'll be spending it indoors with 5-7yr olds.
@Kaylz, its good your pharmacy are doing that, it will make it easier for you. Hope you and Bruce had a nice anniversary.
@SueEK, i don't know where you live but if its near me i would be offering to come and help. I used to do office work but stopped when i had my children. There are times lately that i have considered going back to it, am absolutely shattered at work atm.
Have a good day all.
 
Morning all. 🙂 5.7 here.

@SueEK you’re their most valuable asset - I just hope they wake up to the fact soon!

I had a look on my surgery’s website yesterday for info about this year’s flu jab. Apparently, they’re doing a mass flu jabathon in October at the local community centre, 9am to 4pm, first come first served. Considering that most of the local population is retired / ancient, I’m not sure it’s such a good idea! It’ll be rammed.:D😱

Off to (outdoor) knitting today - first time since March. Really looking fwd to seeing ev1.🙂
 
Morning all. 6.5 on this very dull day. Mount Skiddaw has disappeared behind mist and cloud, not a sign of it. No plans today except make a goulash for the tea. Have a fab day everyone. @Hazel nice to see you and congrats on the HS. 🙂

We had a letter a couple of weeks ago about a mass flujabathon at our local airport! Hope it’s not too planeful! 😛 I’ll get me coat!

To be honest, I'd have preferred sticking to online repeat as and when needed as with not being in my own place I don't have much room to keep things so 8 week's worth of stuff I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with it all, I only have the smallest cupboard in the kitchen and that's to keep all my stuff! :( We didn't do anything and our time was cut 2 hours short as he had a Morrison's delivery due 9-10pm but phone call just before 7 asking if he would accept it early so he had to leave for that, if only they could leave it on the doorstep like my DHL parcel! lol

Someone posted on our local Facebook community page last night that you have to phone the surgery and book an appointment this year, well looks like grandad will need to learn how to use his phone sharpish! I however still won't be opting for it xx
 
@SueEK , i've just re read my post. Please don't think i mean your job is easier than mine!! I just meant i think i need a change and some days its hard being jolly and upbeat all of the time. Anyway, i hope you have a good day.
