Oh good grief I feel better for eating. That was the most enormous bowlful of chopped veggies (raw), sunflower seeds sprinkled on, lavishly spread with parmegan and then dolloped with walnut oil. A whole 15g carbs but will keep me stuffed until dinner.

Husband did a fantastic job on the carpet but the carpet shampooer died (a Vax one). He has bought another and when it comes he said he'll have another go at the sitting room and the hallway (which gets a lot of wear).

Now I'm going to sit and let lunch go down before facing the disaster zone that used to be my craft room......
 
Yeah - I've got some really sweet spots for injections on my upper thighs and stomach. I have to make myself inject elsewhere to keep the rotation going but it's a real temptation some days.

I tend to save the sweet spots for special occasions, a bit like special food

I know the feeling, the constant juggling act. I sometimes bite the bullet, rather than the jelly babies, and reduce by more than 0.5. Summer/winter difference of 4 units in total, 2 am, 2 pm. It’s the stages in between that can be a bit of a nightmare.
 

Umm - Hug, Like and Yaya!!
 
My good news - I worked my fingers to the bone and when he got in he agreed I could have Monday off

He asked why so I told him my house is a tip and if I don't get Monday off it'll get even tippier and I'll be Very Stressed (meaningful stare). He caved.

This hypo nonsense must be contagious as I have caught it now. Cheeky wee BG of 3.2 around 10.15, this morning, which of course i overate for. And so the rollercoaster began. Rage bolused now heading south at a BG of 4.0. Wheres the jelly beans?
 
Haven't hypoed for a while, doing the hyper now so @porl69 don't think that's normal.Hey, don't know what normal is anymore. Very unsettling...if anyone says honeymoon, I'd feel like clocking them
Not a happy hedgehog
 
This is how ive felt today with these blooming hypos you wouldnt believe what ive ate today even had large donor meat and chips for tea out the chippy only took 5u and you've guessed it down to 2.8 maybe my pancreas has decided to splutter back to life ...i can dream
 
you dafty @Knikki you can't wear frocks AND blouses!!!

Depends on the frocks and the blouses, surely? Certainly seen that combination today at work. Twice, now I think about it.

The past couple of days have been full of fantastic moments which have confirmed to me how ready my lot are to move on and start to find their feet in a different place, even if they really don't believe me!

I may need lots of hankies in a couple of weeks time as I send them on their way!
