I'm sorry @Hopeful34, that's awful.

Had a weekend full of carbs and wine and even made some poppies like this one out of tin cans.
I enjoy the process of making them...

Morning
Had a jacket potato for tea yesterday (i'm from up north where yer tea is 6pm) the size of a small planet and miscalculated my dose like you do.
My alarm went off about 3 am and whilst i remember injecting 1.5 units of novorapid it was a very vague memory as i'm on some new pills which one of the side effects is they help you sleep.
Thank goodness for the novo pen memory doo dar.

All is well now with a 4.8 but i'm about to shift a load of leaves so i had better pop a bourbon in before i start.

Have a good day

It's horrible when you feel tired because of low levels in the night (well at any time). Hope tonight is better @Tony337

Happy monday
Had a shocker on Saturday where i went v low over treated then upped and downed all day and just couldn't get a grip...i reached the fourteens at one point on the back of impaired vision whilst up my ladder repairing my garage roof!
Back to normal sunday .......how does this happen from losing it saturday to normal service sunday anyone would think i don't know what i'm doing lol lol.
Just discovered a leak on arriving in work too but i've shoved a bucket under whilst i psyche myself up as i'm useless at plumbing give me a piece of wood and a drill any day.........

It’ll soon be time for my insulin pump upgrade (I received my current one on December 10th 2021) ironically I’ve never kept one for 4 years through no fault of my own except for this one. I already decided a couple months ago I’ll be sticking with Medtronic although still exciting to be getting a new one, I’m like a child at Christmas

It's so easy to overtreat @Tony337 I'm sure we've all done it at various times, but eek on a garage roof with impaired vision. Glad you were ok.

I sometimes think i'm bullet proof as i've never been hospitalised in 50 years however however........lol

Well done, here's to that continuing.

I woke on 6.2 this morning and then i started to rise but my stroll in to work brought it back down and i'm at 5.4 as i type.
I was looking at my libre and i stayed steady all night and said to myself "what a lovely graph" .....

I giggled a bit and i wonder has anyone posted a thread about things only a diabetic would say?

Some of my own faves

" thats filth that is" when i see the staffroom at school when its someones birthday and they bring in those awful donuts covered in icing that were made 8 weeks ago theres about 12 of the buggers they make me gip!

"i'd need an armful of insulin for that" commenting on someones plate at a restaraunt.

"lets see what the lady libre has to say" even after 10 years i am in awe of my libre
and along the same lines i oft mutter " 4 millimeters " as i'm jabbing myself

Have a fantastic Friday everybody and please do forgive my madness

Tony

I think being T1 is enough of an excuse to let off steam and see the funny side of life. I often look at people with their enormous pieces of cake and wonder how anyone's body can cope with it!
I love it when my Time in Range has got back where I want it to be, but how quickly that can change but we all soldier on.
Have a great weekend everyone, I'll be chopping unwanted brambles and foliage off the Roman Wall at Calleva with a great group of volunteers tomorrow, I know how to have fun!
