I’m. So. Tired. Hate painting and decorating, tbh.

Steady fives all day, didn’t eat until about an hour ago, so I think my basal rate is spot on. Trying extended bolusing for white fish again, over two hours as that worked yesterday. Two massive cod lions in and egg wash and halloumi crumb, about three tons of roasted tomatoes with wilted spinach and sort of held together with mayonnaise and aubergine chips, 15g carbs and 70g protein. So I took 4u with 30% up front and the rest over a couple of hours.

Watching the Blues Brothers now, with some wine. RIP Aretha Franklin

I hope you manage some sleep tonight and feel better in the morning
 
You’re not alone! A couple of weeks ago I turned up seven days early to an appointment. It involved paying some money so maybe I was hoping to get the pain done and dusted? At least yours will be for getting some dosh

Hi FG

I have a hospital appointment on Monday I have checked and double checked it’s at 9am so hope I don’t sleep in
 
It’s scary lol
Worst thing is the alphabet challenge...... you know that persons name, for heavens sake you’ve worked with them for the last 20 years. BUT you can’t for love nor money remember there name as you pass them in the corridor.
This is the start of the alphabet challenge. Does there name start with an A....B...or maybe any of the other 24 letters ?
3 hrs later......bingo. It was Bob.
 
Been there done that - embarrassing when you have a conversation with someone who obviously remembers you and all of the time you’re thinking ‘who are you again’!
 
The colour debacle reminds me of when I had cataracts. After they had been replaced my appreciation of colour once more matched that of my wife. (or hers matched mine) LOL
 
Or Barry, or Bruce.........
 
Song of the day: "What the world needs now, is love, low-carb love ......" (Never mind that it is doesn't scan as well as the original).
Perhaps also: If had a glucom meter, I'd meter in the morning, I'd meter in the evening, all over this land ... " Any other ideas ???

A tip someone gave me a while back for situations like this was...... look quizzically at the person to whom you are talking and then ask with a smiling face.....”what is your name again?”
When they look dumbfounded and a tad put out and reply with ......”Daphne” for instance. You immediately reply with...” No not your first name, silly. I meant your surname.” Never tried it personally but theoretically it should work.
 
@Mel dCP well done Mel on your 100%

Arh! The challenge of rembering names, when I used to work in camera retail, I could only remover a few people's names, however tell me which camera they had bought and yep knew who you were talking about

On a side note, woke up Etch A Sketch said 2.8 :***: OK how to deal with this Jaffa cake and a coffee checked bloods 3.8 so not so bad and kind of what I expected.

On another side note, I was wandering up an down the TV channels just now and came across a show called "Top Hooker" imagine my disappointment when I found out it was competitive fresh water fishing
 
Hi there @Knikki . The 2.8 must have been annoying.
Fortunately my 2.30 a.m leap / stumble out of bed had nothing to do with sugar levels.
Rolled over in bed and BANG ......left hamstring went in to cramp. Looking back now the scene was quite comical.
Me , leg in air, foot pointing to the headboard, wife pooing herself thinking we’ve got burglars, me screaming in agony rubbing the offending hamstring. The whole sordid episode lasted a good 10 mins with the **** hamstring releasing only to spasm again a few moments later.
That’s the price us old ‘uns pay for spending a few hours on hands and knees boarding our lofts out.
Ladder and new hatch to fit today and it will all be done. Thankfully.
Have a good yourself and keep out of any lofts.
