"What you doing?" Says the other half

"Off to down the bottom of the garden to catch @therower should be easy to track him as he only changes his underwear once a week if your lucky" says me :cat::hilarious:

:meh: It's always nice to have a caring and supportive manager :facepalm:

Don't let it get to you they're probably too busy at the mo finding out how much you normally do by covering for you.

Just had an email asking for cover on 8 events in the store I work in........... I hope no one can do it and the manager has to do it herself ! :mad:

*Good afternoon,


Please see a list of jobs uncovered if anyone can cover any please let me know.

Thanks*

The quality of that message just shows how unappreciative she is. Basic message, no tailoring to team.

I now have time to think about what I will do when I get better about returning to some kind of work. Most of the customer's are great, but tbh the company stinks :banghead:

Bigotry, reliance on unsupported 'facts', unkindness, unfairness.

Phased return - vital! Ask for it, ask the GP to write and say it’s necessary. The Manager concerned needs to suffer a bit longer.
Are the whole Management team as empathetic as she is?
And look for another job! When you find one, give the shortest notice possible!
I’m imagining your T1 friends ganging together to visit the manager after you’ve left to let her know what they all think of her - what fancy dress costumes should we wear?

Good evening all. Woke up at 3am last night LO. 5 jelly babies is all I had (finger prick 2.5). Woke at 9am to a 17 grrr. Been up and down all day. My better half decided she would make a cake this afternoon with buttercream filling. Oh my absolute favourite....have lost count on how many correction doses I have done....currently on 9.9
We are having friends over for food tomorrow evening so I have made a lemon sorbet with an edge of vodka....must say it's very refreshing AND VERY boozy.

Had a busy day with non diabetes stuff. Hence my old buddy has been largely ignored today. When I have partook everything has been there or there about. Higher as opposed to lower. Correction doses have kept things levelish.
Just devoured 3 mini peppers stiffed with double Gloucester cheese. A bit of useless information for you all there:).
Looks like heatwave maybe breaking. Just a bit of rain will help.
Enjoy the weekend everyone come rain or shine:)

Late on parade again... drove to Oxford and back to South Wales, fuelled by covfefe. Drank a bottle of very dry pink wine, watched my fave band in the world do a little a slot on BBC4 which I live streamed to the global fans on our Facebook page. Literally filmed my telly with my phone lol.

Dinner was prawns and bean sprouts, yet despite three million units of insulin I’ve gone from 5.something to 11.whatever in the space of an hour. Going to eat cheese and go to bed.

Remind me tomorrow to regret all my terrible choices. Sleep well, friends x

Thought I was being good yesterday late afternoon changing the pump cartridge a bit early to avoid a later change. All seemed well at bedtime BSLs wise. But 17 mmol/l this morning ? Hum.
You guessed it - needle insert bent. New insert now in place, waiting for the correct dose to work ......
Talk about times when you need a gun - to fire in a needle insert at 90 degrees and /or an alarm that tells you that the needle is bent (literally and in a suspicion sense) rather than bent tubing or air bubble.
Where is NASA or another space agency when you need them ??

Hi @karen8967, Just when you have found that almonds have zero carbs but could the fat in them slow down absorption of any carbs eaten around that time and thus change the balance of carbs vs insulin timing ?
Also I avoid almonds because they a chock-a-block full of omega -6s. I have walnuts instewad but the fat in them might still cause the same BSL problem,:)
