Hello all. Thank you so much for all your kind wishes, @ianpspurs, @karen8967 and @DJC3. Blood sugars are slowly inching down. This morning they were 5.6.

@Freema -- Wonderful to see that your fasting blood sugars are in the 5s today.
@Granny_grump_ -- How is the healing of your leg coming along?

Happy Easter holidays, everyone.

Thank you dear Ziggy

Thank you all you wonderful people for the birthday wishes. @ ziggy_w @Jenniewren1958 @Granny_grump_ @Freema @Goacher55 @geefull.

No 2 daughter made me scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and avocado for breakfast. The family bought me a voucher for a hot air balloon flight- something Ive always fancied, so feeling v spoiled. X
Wonderful I always wanted to do that but that was many moons ago, enjoy the experience and the rest of your birthday couldn't find an hot air balloon picture to send you but you know what I'm getting at! K

Thanks @dogslife and @eddie1968.

@Granny_grump_ I thought I had a hot air balloon emoji on my phone too but no. I’ll let you know how it goes, does adrenalin affect bg?

@karen8967 Hope your course is better than the Desmond one I attended. At least no biscuits offered, which I know some people have reported!
@DJC3 agree totally with the Desmond course useless, and has to effects of adrenaline on BG your the Guinny Pig so let us all know your results, but just enjoy the whole experience wish I'd done it myself jealousK

Im in work as we speak

Well I hope you live in a time zone that's ahead of me, or that's a horribly early start. Mind you, my next shift block starts at 0545 so I'll be getting up at stupid-o-clock :)
