Oh woe is me I have unfortunately cut one of the fingers on my right hand now only have three fingers on that hand to choose from for finger pricking if you don't count the thumb that is.

Any reason not to use thumb @JohnEGreen? I have seen another post eschewing thumbage

@dogslife sorry to hear about your mums Alzheimer’s a few years ago my nanny was diagnosed with dementia but it’s not so bad after a few months when you get used to it

Thanks, Ziggy2017. Mum has severe memory problems and is depressed. Since losing my dad and her best friend she has been lonely and lost. We spend a lot of time with her but she needs other company and someone to remind her repeatedly how to do things. She hates living alone but will not move as she has lived in the same house for 63 years.We do most things for her and make sure she eats well. We do our best to take her out so that she can see/ talk to others but recently she won't leave her house. We settle her into bed every night but she keeps getting up in the night then wants to sleep all the time in the day. When I'm not there I ring her frequently but she does not put her hearing aids in so even that is becoming more difficult. It is truly a terrible condition! Best wishes to you and your nanny.

I bought a hanging basket stuffed full with Petunia, Marigold, Lobelia, Salvia and Ivy

Sorry to read about your mum (bless)
Alzheimer’s so so cruel x

Sounds lovely and colourful. I've got marigold, lobelia and geraniums waiting to be planted but keeping them in the shade for now so they don't dry out in this sun.

Morning all 3.3 for me this morning Low but feel fine. Only had meat and cheese yesterday so no carbs to talk of. Not much of an appetite at the moment. Off to see Dn next week to see about getting meds reduced. Last months Bg were 4.9 average over 30 days. Highest reading was 6.3 lowest 3.2 so well in range. Have a good day all and stay .

@Terrytiddy Nice low fbg and very keto foods yesterday. Hug is for loss of appetite and need to tweak meds - always a pain But what do I know?

Thanks for that @ianpspurs Never had much of an appetite in a mornings that's why 18/6 fasting is so easy for me. I could go longer but have to eat something because of meds, (need to be taken with food) Blood test later this month so see what they bring.
