Diabetics R Us

Morning all

Alan has left for work already, he has to got to Horsham today but he is going via Billy's on the A29 for a "breakfast meeting" with the "boys"

Work will be quiet today, it's the East Kent Ploughing Match and as land agents we have a big marquee and play host to lots of farmers and land owners. I get to stay behind in the office and have a lazy day.

Have a good day.

Morning All. Another bright start but not as chilly as of late. Feeling not a little smug this morning, had to do some admin yesterday and popped to the shops afterwards. I was in Home Bargains and I found my hand on a large Soreen (no idea how it got there!) and I thought "One slice wouldn't do me any harm" but I didn't even get it off the shelf! I bought T-Towels instead. Another little triumph.
 
Chinese take-away day 4 and I still love it! What's more, I seem to get the hang of bolusing for it (I'm sorry, all you lovely non-insulin-controlled type 2's. But even with insulin, this is not an easy or often consumed meal, but well, I really love this food and it's not my fault a portion for '1 to 2 people' is enough to last me 5 days and allow for the dogs having leftovers daily as well). It has been kept in the fridge but I have my doubts regarding the wisdom of eating it 4 days (chicken, pork, beef, taken away hot, so warmed at least once and probably twice before landing on my plate) so fingers crossed all will be well . For safety's sake, I just fed all the leftovers to 3 very happy dogs, so I won't be at risk of trying my luck for a 5th day

That is exciting! Funny I wasn’t a fan of either when they first appeared but love them both now - especially Rick Astley- what an amazing voice.
Lucky you, it’ll be a fabulous day I’m sure.
 
Also booked today - flu jab. Have you booked yours yet?
 
I've booked tickets to go to Wakehurst Place for 'Glow Wild' in December. I'm really looking forward to it. The woman on the desk gave me a really strange look when I asked if they do 'adult only' sessions! All I meant was, I didn't want to walk round with hundreds of young kids screaming and under my feet........

No. We don't get to book them, they do a walk-in flu-jab-everyone-thingy around here. Problem is to get to know time and date for it. It's supposedly in the local paper, which I don't read because it's very, err, local, and there will probably be a note at the GP/pharmacy about 3 weeks in advance. I guess they reckon everyone needing a flu shot is visiting them all the time, and if not, they've got nothing better to do than reading that idiot newspaper.
So I might be getting a flu shot or I might not, we'll see. I guess it takes only one time of getting the flu + diabetes to spend more energy finding out when I can get my shot.
