Morning all, 6.2 here. Suddenly got very windy here. I'm riding later, cue spooky skittish horses. Good luck holding the camera steady, @Tickledpinknot, and I hope your daughter can persuade her horse to concentrate!

She was doing fine til I rocked up dressed for the Antarctic trying to hold onto an iPad in 40mph winds. Hope your horses weren’t too spooky.

We wimped out and used the indoor arena. It’s very small, but needs must, the wind was so noisy in the row of tall poplars nearby that we’d never have heard our instructor.
 
05:33 BS 7.6. About the same as yesterday!🙂 Yesterday’s plan went pretty well until dinner when 20 units Novorapid resulted in a 13.1 afterwards which needed a 2 unit correction. So, I think same plan today but, up dinner dose slightly to 22 units & see how it goes?🙄

It was chilly all day yesterday & snow was forecast but, it never arrived! Instead there was a thunderstorm just after I finished watching the Dancing On Ice final.😱

I was very pleased to see James Jordan win it & thought the judges were mean to mark his routine down. Which I thought was very innovative & he was the only one to use props with the chairs & tables!😱:D😛

I wasn’t expecting a thunderstorm & then had an unexpected wee paddy with Siri: kept telling him “Your forecast is wrong. There’s no snow. There’s a thunderstorm right now!” To which I expected him to say something conciliatory like “I’m sorry, Lanny” but, oh no Siri kept insisting “No, there’s no thunderstorms expected & snow is forecast!” I eventually gave up: Siri just wouldn’t admit he was wrong; he usually says he’s sorry or I’ll try to do better!🙄 Childishly silly of me to argue with Siri but, there we are!😳

Had intended on Blood tests this morning but, realised last night I have to wait for the app. letter from the hospital with the plastic bag, labels etc. for the blood specimens to be sent to the hospital. It might come in today’s post but, it’s usually 2 to 3 days for the post. I’ll wait for it before I go for blood tests!🙄

Anyways, enough gabbing & I’m off to breakfast!🙂

It’s the start of a new week! Make it a good one, I fully intend to! Have a wonderful day full of sunshine on the inside!😉
 
Good,orning. 8.0 for me, and slept all night.have a good day all
 
@khskel snap! A fabulous 5.5 today, was 5.7 at bedtime, dithered about whether to have a snack as wasn’t hungry but had a plain chocolate digestive, 10 grams carbs. Must have worked! Have a happy Monday everyone. 🙂

Morning all, 4.9 when I woke up, 5.2 when I swiped the libre again post bathroom visit. Can’t really count it as an HS.

Go on @
Robin. Be a devil.
 
Annoyingly, post just arrived with app. letter, forms, labels etc. when I’ve already had breakfast! I could do tests without fasting but, I wanted the cholesterol one to be fasting: more accurate! I gave up on taking statins this Winter as I was having problems enough with the injury without THAT making things worse! Ah well, I’ll fast tonight, no breakfast tomorrow, & do the tests tomorrow!🙄 Bring my little tupperware box of oatcakes with me so, I can eat as soon as I’m done: now I’m on insulin; it’s REALLY hard to fast overnight!😡
 
Morning all. Woken up slightly late but to a 6.7 which I am pleased with after my tea sent me to 9.0 last night.
 
7.8 this morning. Typical that my levels have been higher the last few days when I have my review today. The review won’t be helped by the Libre sensor that I put on Thursday consistently showing level 1.5-4 above my meter! Oh well
 
Hello hello.🙂 8.2 here.🙄
 
Good morning 2.2 😱 at 07:00, back up to 6.8 at 07:30, 🙂 back down to 2.1 at 10:30😱:(. Went to bed 6.9 and a digestive biscuit so wasn`t expecting any real drop but who can tell? Certainly not me.🙄 Got hospital appointment at 16.40 today E.N.T. see what else they can find.🙄

I would take the HS @Robin.🙂

Good luck with review Amanda.🙂

Have good day folks.🙂
 
Thank you Karnak. Good luck with your ENT appointment.
 
Good grief!😱 You’ve had quite a time of it already! Then haveing to get to & from the hospital!:( Have you reduced the basal yet?🙄

Take it easy & put your feet up when you get back!🙂
 
Good morning all🙂

I woke up on 7.1 this morning, but that’s a Libre score, and I may be a touch under hydrated. Good enough, then, we’re not looking at brain surgery here:D

Interesting afternoon watching footie yesterday. First up was the Birmingham v Aston Villa game. You may have noticed in the news that a Birmingham fan ran on to the pitch and decked Jack Grealish from behind. Rather inevitably, Grealish scored the only goal of the game. Celebrated by jumping into the crowd, where a steward, taking time out from restraining the Villa fans, gave Grealish a good kick. So that’s Birmingham with pariah of the month award. Two people bringing the wrath of the FA down on the club. And most Birmingham fans, too.:(

That’s what happens when you take everything too seriously. As a Blackburn fan, I’ve had over half a century of learning that it’s only a game:confused::D

Have a good day everyone, new week in the great adventure🙂
