Type 1'stars R Us

Was preparing for bed and wondering what I'd need to eat to nudge my bg up a little when a neighbour shouted there was a lamb in the canal.
So back in bed now with nettle stings on my bum, thistle scratches on my arms, wet shoes, wet clothes, a hypo and feeling totally happy as I saved the sweetest 3 day old lamb from drowning after a search through a dark garden
 
You should also be in awe of yerself. It's your kid!

She most certainly is mine, but I take no credit for the way she manages her diabetes. That's all her own doing. I have no involvement whatsoever bar ordering her prescriptions! For a 14 year old girl to be as responsible as she is, I think she's amazing.
 
@Jaylee - a HUGE well done to your daughter. That's brilliant
 


@Antje77 - that is wonderful. Brilliant. I am smiling as I type this - have a great big hug!!
 
Morning, it's @mahola's daughter who is the star


I'd edit but that would make a total nonsense of your post. So chaps - put it down to posting before slurping coffee - always a big mistake!!
 
Morning everyone, another glorious day, just right for travelling. Stopping overnight in Stanstead then flying to Gdansk tomorrow. First though a spot of coffee and then some ironing. A lovely 4.3 to start the day
 
Love the lamb rescue @Antje77, well worth a bit of nettle bum
-only emoji I could find is a big sheep, but maybe a wet lamb seemed heavy enough to be a big sheep. Do you live in countryside?
A big shout out to @Mahola’s daughter too - definitely top banana!
Have a great time in Poland @SueJB.
Shame about the summerhouse, @helensaramay, and your mum’s really lucky having you to take her to hospital.
Hope you don’t fall down the T1 rabbit hole @Knikki

And hope the English the students speak to you won’t need a mod edit @Mel deCP!
 
@helensaramay sounds the same as under my desk. Flights to Poland are cheap but you have to pay to stay the night in a hotel. I lived in Poland for 9 years and love going back.. especially as Mr B can speak Polish
 
Morning all, well ok it's just gone 12 - cycling to the car last night I was over taken by another cyclist in full gear - But as he went past me I noticed a Libre and miaomiao on his arm so I just had to catch him up and have a chat! tortoise and the hare scenario I caught him up at the lights! Pulled up along side him and said 'so whats your level like at the mo?', 'what?!' and I pointed to his arm, 'oh', and he pressed a button or 2 on his Garmin gadget on his bikes handle bar and said '3.5' I said 'thats a bit low' and he responded as the lights changed and cycled off 'I've had a few tabs so that should see me ok' - hare and tortoise to the next set of lights, 'Have you used this before' twitching his left arm 'well I've used the libre before but react to it' 'well they're suppose to be changing the adhesive aren't they?' 'yes' I said 'but probably with the v2', 'I won't need this (pointing to the miaomiao) then when it comes with bluetooth.....', lights change and we're off again 'all the best' as I peel off to the car park 'first time I've seen one in the wild!'

It's the little things in life!............

........talking of little, little @mahola is doing fantastically well - when is she going to join in and teach us old folk how it's done?!?!!

What ever you're up to - steady numbers everyone.
