Morning everyone,
Madam D plummeted to 2.8 yesterday, no real awareness but OK coz I'd invested in Jelly Babies and overindulged
Silly, annoyingly high this dull Saturday morning 11.7, gave it a slap in the belly and hope I've got it right. Loads to do today, shredder still needed, fat balls for the birds, food for the humans. I've got a Thai friend coming to stay so I'm going to make Vietnamese mussels!!
What it happening @SueJB ? Hypos still happening. Where is Sherlock Hypo-solver Holmes when you need him?¿
 
The post office must be making heaps of money !!
Funny you should say that. I’ve spent a fortune sending documents to various places by Special Delivery... amusingly (not) I’ve lost a chunk of my bursary because they say my husband earns too much - as a flippin’ postman. You couldn’t make it up. I’m appealing their decision on that, as it’s below the threshold they publish to be knocking money off. Yet more postage!

You might have to invest in one of Amazon's delivery drones- And wait, your hubby could charge up the batteries on his posting rounds - gotta be some way to profit off the post ¡!

Oh Mel I feel for you. Battling 'authorities' is exhausting, frustrating, time-consuming and tests credibility. I won't bore you with some of my experiences over the past few years but you have my absolute sympathy.
 
Now I'm drunk and before anyone says any thing I really do not care if I drop below 4, which at the moment I ain't.

I was going to suggest two mini Tesco pork pies to sort that, but no way, an unbolused 30g, even with a few units iob didn't quite work as well as expected, as per pic below.

I've got another two of the wee f#!*@!#& in the fridge, so might have another stab at it.

Sweetpea, I have no idea what's happening. Perhaps now I'm coming up to 2 years, my panc has decided to jack it in @kitedoc
What do people say? "no **** Sherlock!!
Fed up to say the least, going to bed at 10.1 ........................ who knows where I'll be tomorrow

Hi @Mel dCP. Did you see the Diabettech May 2019 snapshot of UK DIY APS users? Given your goal of achieving this over the summer you might find this interesting. Cheers. Leeanne
 
Hello friends, apologies for not being around today. I woke up on a good bg - 8.5 but hypoed all afternoon through to evening. My brother visited us today, spoiled my bf with alcoholic drinks. Unfortunately my bf ended up quite drunk and vomited everywhere, so I’ve been on cleaning duty. So I’ve hypoed even more and it looks like I won’t be sleeping tonight because I need to keep an eye on him.
 
Morning everyone. Dull, overcast here so I'll have a fun time in the kitchen and then retreat to the sofa and read/mooch about on the net/read some more. But first, more coffee, breakfast and more coffee.

I got some more arnica cream yesterday and am putting that on the new tattoo. Quickest thing I can think of to get rid of the bruising fast. The swelling was all gone within a couple of hours of the tattoo being done (well, it was tiny!) and the arnica is helping a lot with the bruising.

6.5 when I got up - not unhappy with that at all.
 
Good morning and it's a sunny start to the day. Had my first cuppa, washing on and just finished my book,Alone on a wide wide sea, so need to start another, I have a few lined up :)
The village fete was cancelled yesterday:( but went to the Thai Festival in our park instead, which was great. Saw the 'ladyboys' singing( and lots of make up but less clothes, very dynamic looking):wideyed: and it is on again today, last time I went in 2016, it was free to watch, but not now, £5 a ticket. I took a video, but it wont upload onto my computer and a couple of photo's, so I will see what I can do.
Happy Sunday:)
 
Of course, now I've had the tiny tattoo done I'm thinking of slightly larger canvases. But although my husband came with me to the tattoo studio (which is so clean and friendly!) I'm thinking he isn't too thrilled about it. Then again, do I care? Truthfully, not that much - it's my decision to make.

Thing is, it'd have to be something really meaningful to me. And I know just exactly what that would be - I'd like the pic from my mug, but instead of my name over the top of it I'd like "Vegan AF". It'd cost, so my ethical dilemma is whether it'd be better to just donate that money to PETA? Or, save up a lot a lot, and donate an equal sum to whatever the tattoo costs? Arrgh. I'll have to think slowly and seriously. And I'd have time because who has money just lying around?
