The good weather makes my BG run a bit higher than usual. I found my perfect solution, I appreciate not every can do this, maybe I should post an ad for local diabetics with same problem to join me as there is room
My air conditioned car lovely, I spend the morning on the drive, my dogs in back seat chillin out, we all went for a drive in the afternoon. I'm trying to workout if we can all get in there to sleep tonight.

It's actually cooler inside my house than outside so have all the windows closed and fans running - lovely and cool

I decided to grab a bag, book, phone and chair and walk about 25 yards onto the beach.

Wonderful breeze and I did not feel overly hot at all ... perfect afternoon - don't think I want to work tomorrow though.

Not jealous can only spend 20 minutes in sun, to top up the vitamin D, then it's shade, I live right by a river estuary and would love to just sit and enjoy the view but no shade
