...you try to make a cup of coffee with Bisto gravy granules... 😱

Anything daft you've done under the influence of a glucose-deficient brain? 🙂
 
Yes!!! Brilliant topic. I once put the iron in the fridge
 
Yes ..but I am not telling!😱
 
used hair gel on my face instead of shaving gel before shaving :D
 
:confused: I don't have hypos but still sometimes do stupid things!!

Like, put a tea bag in the cup and milk in the tea pot! Could understand bag in cup as that is what we did at work but milk in the tea pot?
 
Never had a hypo, but I've put the kettle in the fridge.

Washed hair with facial wash/ forgot to rinse out conditioner & wondered why I was having a bad hair day.

Oh & my mum in Birmingham on Friday managed to squirt the soap dispenser in the ladies all over her hair! She was very thankful it didn't rain after. (She isn't diabetic, perhaps it is just in your genes!):D
 
Put lucozade in trainer - one foot smelled nice and raspberry for a while!

Kept sneering at one of the managers at the club because I thought he was trying to steal my water bottle - which was just an empty squash bottle:D
 
Feeling compelled to do the *most* trivial things (sort cutlery drawer/tidy desk/whatever) before going to get treatment.
 
Kettle in the fridge and milk in the oven 🙂. I'm clever me
 
You Walk up and down the corridor at work demonstrating how your two year old does robot impressions. Including putting a mug on your hand and doing robot high-fives. Oh dear.
 
You go in your bag to get fruit pastilles and put lipstick on instead
 
oh how I have laughed at these - but Alans gravy granules instead of coffee is priceless.
 
Sprayed contact lens cleaner under my arms instead of deodorant, put paint in the larder and went in the bathroom to make my lunch.😱
Kelly.
 
Little one took a great big run and pushed some random "dad" in the school playground whilst waiting for big sis, x 2 in succession 😱😱

A nose dive into the lego prompted rapid testing response too.

Come on mum get your act together!!
 
When your legs give way when you are in a Supermarket

What is it about those places ?
