I have busy morning, lady from CAB is coming round to my house to help me fill in an on loine claim for Universal credit as I can't work and get no sick pay. I just found out details at Gov.uk and when I do fill it in claimants have to do this :-
How to claim
You need to apply for Universal Credit online.

You have to apply as a couple if you and your partner live together. You do not need to be married.

After you apply, you must contact your local Jobcentre Plus within 7 days to make an appointment with a work coach.

You will not get Universal Credit if you do not attend the appointment.

I can't wait..........:rolleyes:
 
@Knikki . Mate...........STOP!!!!!!

Please tell me you collect those lovely Thomas Kinkade Christmas pictures. That really would set me up for the day.:):)
( apologies to shopping channel, Thomas Kinkade and Smith fans out there. It’s just banter;))

Just had to google Thomas Kinkade.. The artwork is somewhat reminiscent of a "twee" Ralph McQuarrie...

My record in a day is 18 injections! Usually, I’ll correct when I hit 6.5-7 with half a unit to drop me by 1.5mmol. However, I’ve been getting bad hormone related insulin resistance, which only lasts a few days, so can’t increase my basal as I’m on Tresiba and it doesn’t react in time. So on days like this, I’m dribbling in 0.5-1u every hour or so to stop it getting out of hand. I’ve not been able to get in below 7 for a few days, but am mostly able to keep in in single digits. Obviously stacking is an issue, but I log all my doses in two apps, so I’m aware of how much I have on board at any time. I did try the official DAFNE only correcting before a meal thing as an experiment, and it hit 17, so I took four units (should have dropped me to 5 minimum) and went hypo. So I’m back to my dribbling! Don’t know if it’s the heat, but my few days of resistance is into its third week. Reluctant to up the Tresiba any more than I have already in case it goes back to normal and I’ll spend a week hypo.

And yes. I look like I’ve been beaten up by an elf.

Honestly Mel - you need to get yourself a pump, would make your life so much easier, it really would, and based on how you are managing this daily I am pretty certain you would easily meet the criteria.

Be gone, with you, eighth month! Even if it does contain my birthday, I’ve already had my present, my MiaoMiao ;)

Good morning all.

How about this? I have an Alarm song for every occasion :D


Slept through my dawn phenomenon alarm because I’d turned the volume down so as not to wake the husband who has chronic fatigue and is in need of as much sleep as he can get. So that went well. So woke in the high 8s, have been correcting all morning and just hit 10, so obviously I’m beyond thrilled. Seems like the more I inject, the higher it goes :banghead:
