Just got up & haven’t read any posts yet! 12:14 BS 9.1! Surprised as I was expecting higher! 🙄

Yesterday BS was in the 12’s all day, apart from waking! I ate carbs all day as airport food is a carb fest! One of my other brothers gave us hotdogs for a 2nd. breakfast at his house in Manchester before going to see my sister at the hospice! Despite my trying to prepare myself, it was shocking to see her like that! I couldn’t be my usual self & didn’t talk much! I think she understood because we’d both taken our turns/shifts taking care of, admistrating pain meds really, to my dying mum in 2015! Words are inadequate but, your presence is everything! She kept chatting to my brother, who carried the conversation, & kept a tight hold of my hand! I managed to stave off the tears until afterwards when leaving! Then Italian pasta for lunch at another sister’s house & a wee nap before going back to the airport! Expected rush hour traffic on every other lane/motorways but ours & we were 2 hours early! 🙄 We kept remarking on it! Ate Burger King at the airport to round off a carb day I’ll write off & foget about! Having done 2 deathbed journeys now, mum’s with dropping BS the whole way & this one with 12’s all day; this one was less worry!

Thanks for all your thoughts & wishes: maybe something to do with no rush hour jam for us? :D Will have insulin now, get up & cook breakfast! Then, catch up!

Good morning everyone!

I was thinking about you yesterday Lanny...what's important is that you were there with her and I have no doubt that was a great comfort to her.

5.4 for me this morning. Am happy with that after a couple of days of being under the weather.. i find i tend to comfort eat when I am not well so the diet hasn't been exactly to plan. Back at work today and back to trying to keep some control

When we're poorly Emma we have to prioritise getting well...I wouldn't worry about a couple of days of comforting food you need to keep up your stamina.

It’s hard Emma when you are not well. My head kept thinking what did I want and my body just said what the heck. Hope you are better today.

Good morning from Normandy, 5.9 and pleased with that after guessing carbs with a work dinner last night. I had no idea what was on my plate but it worked!
Have a good Friday.

Made me laugh NJ
 
Morning...went out to work last night & scraped home around 01:30...with follow up calls to do finally got to bed around 3am...waking up slowly with coffee...it tastes so good...up to a 5.8...despite scoffing some mini Kitkats right before bed😳😳😳...lucky.
 
Morning everyone. I was 7.2 this morning, probably due to a slight miscalculation on an entirely home made chicken curry. Not the end of the world, though, is it?

Nice curry, anyway.🙂
