Group 7-day waking average?

Good afternoon gang🙂

8.8 this morning, which rather remiss of me, but it’s the weekend.🙄

Very naughty lunch, today, celebrating Mothers day, two generations. It’s my late mother’s birthday today, too. Traditional English - soup, then roast beef with all the usual trimmings inluding a Yorkshire pudding the size of a deflated football. But not the right shape for filling with gravy. Consolation lay in the raspberry crème brûlée. I bolussed from the menu, so we’ll see how that pans out.

Haven’t been to the Shireburn since I was a teenager. It’s been subtly altered, the entrance I went in to go into the restaurant had an 18th century flagged floor turned into a downward ramp towards the restaurant from the old bar, and the tables (all reserved) widely spaced for charging around. Neat. Lovely view across the Ribble Valley from the restaurant.

Anyway, a good time was had by all🙂

Enjoy the rest of your day - I will, watching Liverpool v Spurs and the Bahrain GP.

Bahrain has just passed laws saying that adulterers and homosexuals can be stoned to death. Sharia Law. There is no mention of, or admonition of homosexuality in the Qu’uran. Or the Bible, come to think.

Clicking that link tells me that they are unable to find that passage. Rather appropriate in the circumstances.:D

Get ready for those amusing quips at the clinic @Flower,

At least I don't get asked are you sure you're in the right clinic, they save that for eyes, hand clinic etc ! I just get all the side splitting 'serves you right for going skiing' or 'you'll be on the bench for Saturdays game' when it is a foot clinic. Oh the joys I've cheered up already🙄🙂
 
Once went to see a podiatrist in a clinic and he was, not to put to fine a point on it, obese. Must have weiged 25+ stone, could barely get up from his chair, had thick pebble glasses and wheezed like a good un. Though of asking him if I should check his feet.

10:36 BS 5.5.:D Hey! A 5!😱 In surprised shock!😛

Slept late as I went to bed late! Had another nerve frazzling day yesterday of reductions. Posted on another thread. Read over @mikeyB post & thought about it overnight & came to the conclusion that he’s right: I’m micromanaging then, to rub it in, this morning @Northerner posted more or less the same thing; need to “chill” & relax about small variances!😳

What can I say? I seem to have lost my nerve about going hypo or even approaching low & my fingers are getting tender from all the extra tests!😱

Just spent the last 30/40 mins. trying to call my DSN & couldn’t get through. So, tried calling the dietician but, she’s not in today. So, had usual half oatcake & decided to be ultra conservative with 4 units of Novorapid. Will keep trying my DSN & have decided to inject 24 units Levemir at 12:30 if I can’t get through. It will be an ultra conservative day of insulin & I’ll TRY, being the operative word, not to test so much. If readings are higher at least my nerves won’t get frazzled again if I’m approaching low BS!🙄
