Polish food is just toooooo

Lol, I thought the buildings at the back of your avatar looked Eastern European!

Krakow is my favourite holiday destination, I could quite happily live there.

Did you give goloncka ham hock a go? I'm not a low carber but I'll always find room for a few of those when I'm over there.

 
I thought for a moment that you Was having rabbit for food for a bit lol.
RRB good to see you are doing well
 

Thanks Kev
 
Only saving grace is that it got you out of the washing up ??
 
In the Antipodes, BSLs improved on tweaking the basal. Good kite fly yesterday. Steady NW breeze. Unfortunately the flying fish kite had 'technical difficulties' ( in other words muggins here had forgotten to fix some vital details on the design) so some time soon ........ The walking along the beach, digging up sand for sand anchors, and hopping (= struggling) over anti-erosion fences all helped to moderate BSLs. Happy Monday to you all !!

Its funny isn't it how I blame the food and not the insulin!

Have as good a Monday as you can have for a Monday.......

Good morning everyone. I have an appointment with the nurse to test my bp, she was off sick on my last two visits, which is frustrating, but hopefully she will be there Awoke on a 7.1, which is good. Son is popping round, then my friend is this afternoon. Not feeling so low in mood today,
Have an awesome day ( even though it is Monday)

Nope still did the washing up

High alarm went off 2.00am (response to Spag Bol ) ~sigh~ in with correction dose woke at 3.3 ~shrug~ next time I will use 3units instead.

Just had first coffee so OK at the moment mind you BSL is climbing, but thats OK as I split does for the breakfast.

As a side note I have some new tech



Which replicates all the xDrip stuff from the phone to the watch, of course being a "smart watch" it does have some annoying habbits but will learn how to switch them off. Great thing about the watch means I dodn't have to have the crested porcupine of a phone on me all the time.

Morning all, just caught up on the thread, love the bat s__t crazy etch-a sketches! Nice to see no ones ever perfect............all the time.

My weekend entailed getting up early saturday to take daughter to play a football match (her first one) they won! but boy was it so frustrating - really really frustrating! The wife then sprang a surprise on me, her sister and husband were coming for dinner tomorrow (Sunday) and he was going to look at the saniflo system that hadn't been working great for a while and also had had a big water leak, due to my bad back (and the fact I knew it was going to be a right pigs ear to sort out) I'd just turned the water off to it - we can just about live with one bathroom. Sunday, Pigs ear it was, initial leak sorted easily enough, saniflo running smoothly BUT! taking it all out, and this bit was wrong and then that bit, small leak here and a small leak there, cistern issue there...........bs stayed fairly level and in range all day somehow and I cooked a fab roast as well (it wasn't just me that thought it fab!) - and the girls? either walking the dog or sat in the sun all day.

6.2 this morning

'Tis alright to talk to yourself but not to answer yourself back !! Best Wishes.
 
I hope you avoided sunburn. The bright sun-unreadable pump screen issue is a tough one. I partly succeeded by rolling up a magazine, placing that over the screen and putting my eye to the other end of the tube. With a bit of practice I could use one hand to steady the pump and hold the tube to the eye (a rubber band around the magazine was the trick) and manipulated the pump buttons with the other hand and use of the other eye. The tube tends to hurt the area around the eye if not placed carefully.
I decided against patenting the idea !! And no, I was not arrested for weird behaviour !!
If I had been questioned I would have said that I was a insulin pump astronomer !
 

Is that your actual arm or a body double?
