You had a real need for that millionaire shortbread as reflected in a good FBG. Hope you can take it easy today without gardening or housework or much of it anyway.Morning...awful day in traffic yesterday...three hours to get to London navigating through so many police cordons & road works...endless three ways traffic controls...home around 7:30pm and broke out the millionaires shortbread...despite that a good sleep...and woke to a 6.1
Sounds as though your befriending skills are as exemplary as Jane's navigational skills. I'm guessing the notion of a friend who would source and cook LC meals was not a key reason for choosing that friend but the basic trust that underpinned the friendship proved, probably once again, how right you were.Bedtime bg was 6.7, and the reading this my7.2 - which basically reflects my night of ‘sleep.’
We had a good drive here yesterday through the beautiful Peak District, fabulous weather and lovely scenery. At Chesterfield I took a wrong lane (as far as I could see they were all marked A61 which didn’t tell me much as that number wasn’t on my route) so we ended up on a more scenic route for a while until we met the road to Buxton again. I’d manage to stop and re-program Jane on the Tom Tom, who rather cleverly directed us through narrow and very high roads to meet the A6 again. OH has little faith in Jane’s abilities and made worried noises most of the way. But she proved him wrong as usual.
Our friend had cooked very clever LC food for us which showed in my bg last by. Apparently she did some goggling to decide on her shopping list. Such a lovely kind person.

I too would be lost without it Harrison...however often I'm lost when I'm in it...once the girls set me up I'm off but when I encounter a problem I wait for them to resolve.I'd be lost without it
And I enjoy reading these posts. I dont have a cat or dog. Had 2 cats, ginger and tabitha. Lost both in their old age sadly. Would love a dog. But time not right so I enjoy sharing your experiences. Would miss them if they were on another thread.Since this is a full-on chat thread I enjoy chatting with other cat people and dog people, et al., in the context of this thread so thoughtfully started by @HarrisonK .

That is such an uplifting post @HarrisonK and good for you to both recognise and grab the opportunity with both hands. I also can't help thinking that so much of the optimism and huge leap forward in managing T2 at least has been driven by IT in all its forms. Past thinking on progression and management relied on evidence from what is comparatively the Dark Ages compared to these information and analysis rich times.The greatest gift to me was the advent of the computer age, it is my heavenMy tech (in all its forms) is my window on a world I wouldn't have taken part in due to my autism, I'd be lost without it

6.3 at 10:00 sorting out which of my belongings I must let go , need to half the amount of belongings , this is hard
5.7 this morning - was 5.8 last.night so no dawn phenomenon. We are staying at the Victoria at Holkham so had a lovely walk around the grounds of Holkham Hall before breakfast.
Are relaxing in the residents lounge reading the papers, feeling a bit lazy - dogs are snoozing. Daughter and family are joining us later so no doubt we will be walking down to the beach. Things won't be quite so quiet when the grandchildren arrive.
