5.8 this morning after a rotten nights sleep what with the heat and wearing one of those sleep monitors strapped to my chest and a finger probe and to cap it all I had to use tape to secure the tube running the lenth of my arm and when I tried to remove it the tape took about a 3 inch strip of skin off with it so not very happy at the moment.

FBG 5.7 this morning... had to pick my jaw up off the floor after going to bed 8.4 (three hours after eating and last bolus) Decided to just take the 5.7 instead of retest. Abit cheeky but its been too long since a morning FBG in the 5s.

Too many to list here . . .
8.6 - Neither rhyme nor reason.

Have a great Wednesday. Off with Mrs. E to place order for carpets and flooring for Estragon Towers.

6.2 for me this morning. Been doing my longest walk later in the evening (after evening meal) as it’s been cooler and it seems to have lowered the FBG these last few days.
