Sorry to hear you've been poorly Lorraine. It's much harder I think to lose a cough during the winter months but glad your throat is better now. You take care of yourself do ya hear and feel 100% better soon x

Thanks, @wirralass!🙂
Just up again from 40 winks for another ham sandwich & chicken soup. 09:24 BS 5.6. MUCH better!
Forgot to mention that yesterday all readings were sub 6 apart from the highest reading, waking, of 6.0. Have tried dialling down the dose a bit to 14 units. Will stay up to test after & have midday meds. Then, maybe another snooze?🙄 I may not need so much sleep today?😉

8,5 for me this morning, which I am pleased with, as I did eat two slices of crustry bread for tea last night and 6 peanut M&Ms.

Morning good number fans🙂
Managed to hit 5.4 this morning, after a long lie in. Slept for 10 and a half hours. Feel completely refreshed. That’s the long walk up the stairs paid for, so we’re all square🙂
The lift, apparently, needs a new part from the manufacturers, but I’m waiting for a phone call from the HA to tell me when that might be available. I’ve given them a deadline of 12 today to let me know the current state of play. For some reason the lift engineer is here today, but of course I can’t talk to him, because he’s working downstairs. That’s what really bugs me - the lack of information.
Anyway, stuff is being done, but I need to get into a discussion about fallback situations if this ever happens again. A stairlift on at least one of the stairs might be an idea, I could just about cope with that, as could a few of my neighbours. The stairs are concrete, but that’s not a problem. Return stairlifts are always more expensive than straight runs, so I’ll see what they think.
Anyway, have a good day folks, I’m going to have an interesting one.🙄

11.0 this morning and all this talk of crust bread @wirralass and @Grannylorraine is going to make me have an early lunch.
How do you all manage when eating out at irregular times? Going to watch Son play ice hockey tomorrow and catch up with friends but won’t be eating lunch til 3ish and game won’t finish til 9ish - way past my usual bedtime, let alone tea time 🙄

Oh dear, Northie...I’ve been out of the loop, so didn’t realise you’d got thyroid trouble. Is that why you’ve been feeling so rough? Hope you’re back to your zing-tastic self asap.🙂
Morning all.🙂 8.2 here.🙂
I’m determined to finish cleaning the kitchen at the new place today - then I can be reunited with the plates, pans, etc that’ve been in boxes for...well...years! Enjoy the weekend folks.

06:37 BS 9.7. Overtreated a near hypo before bed? 20:43 BS 4.2. Had tea & 3 chocolate chip cookies. There were only 3 left in the tin & having 2 would have left a solitary 1 left so, scorffed that one too!🙄, with a whistle! I dialled my doses back to 16, 14, 12 & 10 yesterday! Sttill snoozed all day but, shorter 2/3 hour naps. Had a REALLY horrid nightmare during one snooze & woke with a racing heart: one of those horror movie being chased by some monster & trying to wake up & think I have only to find that I haven’t! Maybe food in my stomach affecting my sleep?🙄 Also dialled back midnight Levemir & will dial back midday too as I kept going lower & lower yesterday: ate an extra meal!😳
Just finished my breakfast 45 mins ago & had 16 units again, only because of the higher start!🙄
GOOD morning everyone & have a great weekend!🙂 Continue to give those viruses, the snotty so & so’s, short shrift & I wish you all bright sunshine on the inside!😎

Thanks @Bloden 🙂 Snap! 8.2 for me as well! Keep jelly babies on hand, kitchen cleaning is the DF's favourite activity when it comes to fairy dust, well, alongside gardening 😱 😉Oh dear, Northie...I’ve been out of the loop, so didn’t realise you’d got thyroid trouble. Is that why you’ve been feeling so rough? Hope you’re back to your zing-tastic self asap.🙂

Morning gang🙂
I woke up to a disconcerting 9.5, sorry for disrupting the averages. That’s the difference between tomatoes and sweetcorn. Yesterday I made a delicious Lasagne, and served it with a tomato salad. See yesterday’s post for the score. As I’m running out of food, I had to resort to serving it with sweetcorn last night. Little yellow sugar bombs, and I got the bolus wrong, don’t often eat it. That’s my excuse anyway, and though it might be boring, I like to pass on learning experiences, even though I’ve been doing it for 23 years.🙂
You may remember the lift problem. Well, the part it needs for revival takes a couple of days to arrive, so Wednesday is the earliest day it could be mended. I’ll miss the mega Italian birthday meal for grandson, and the official party on his birthday on Sunday. I could probably just about do the Sunday party, but I know if I do that next Monday and Tuesday will be written off. I retired so I didn’t have to make decisions.🙄
Anyway, Millwall v Blackburn is live on Sky later today, so don’t expect any evening pearls of wisdom, but watch out for clouds of curses drifting South with the prevailing wind.
Have a good day everyone, happy shopping🙂

Morning all you Saturday stars. A nice round 6 for me this morning. Got an exciting day ahead, wedding dress shopping with daughter number 3. Maybe not as exciting for Mr Eggy’s wallet! Hope I don’t disgrace myself with all my coughing and spluttering. I will take plenty of tissues in case I get something in my eye. 🙄 Hope you all have a fab day and @mikeyB doesnt starve. We used to slide down the stairs on tea trays, worth a thought? 😉
