Edinburgh Fringe is busy doing it’s thing and some bright spark (humour police) has decided upon which are the best 50 jokes. No.
Anyhow I picked this one out for @jjraak, @alf_Josiah and any other members of the thread who, like me, like moving along on two wheels
:
I’ve been feeling suicidal so my therapist suggested I do CBT.
Now I can ride a motorbike,...... how’s that going to help?
5.2 and I'm flabbergasted and here's why.
Yesterday running around like a headless chicken. My usual queuing for a naked kebab on a Saturday went right out the window. Didn't have an hour to spare! Its VERY popular kebab shop but an hour round trip. So Chinese take away. Chicken foo yung on the menu for me. It's quite nice but at the end of the day just an omelette! I ordered quarter duck as usual. I usually have one pancake with a tiny bit of hoi sin sauce. Well 3 pancakes later I was like 'what just happened there!!!???'. One glass of red to accompany (of the large variety).So I used my temporary lapse as an experiment. Heres the scores on the doors!
Start pointing 4.8
1.5 hours 5.8
2 hours 6.0
2.5 hours 5.1
Bedtime 5.3
Sometimes diabetes really throws me. When I expect to be low I'm higher. And vice versa. So there ya go. Unpredictable sometimes.
I may be off the radar for a few days as family descending on me today from Dublin. I'm lying here listening to the birds singing enjoying the peace and tranquility while I can. Bedlam will ensue from 2pm! Chaos and Mayhem will be joining in. Full on party! My ears will need a holiday on their departure. To give you an idea I've attached a link of how I see it going....
And just to agree but in the opposite way..
had my cheese/tom breakfast yesterday, kept busy so missed my window for dinner 7pm
wasn't particularly hungry, so had halo/strawberries and cream later, instead...yum
running low on strips so no testing..(usually fine)
expecting a "good show, old boy" pat on the back from the meter ..been getting mid 5's of late
.
nope...so not having it..it gave me an admonishment with a
" 6.2....and think yourself, lucky, it's not worse, sonny boy "
and as for the family, debs.....are you being racist ?
Because if you, are,... letmetellyouwearentalllikethatlbutlovedthatskitwhenifirstsawitLoL...
Did 17hrs and was rewarded with a 7.3.
but I have noticed before that after a stay at a hotel - eating much more protein as portion sizes of meat or fish are much higher than I would normally have - that once back home blood sugars do run higher for a while.
.
Have to agree @Krystyna23040
does seem a very common thing.
and at least you are aware what it is.
Hugs for day ladies.
and a Fist bump for Mr diabetes educator man...
Btw..6 downloads..6 reviews ..one pretty poor..but can only see the 4 best ones..
(very true to form, Only lets you know what it THINKS you SHOULD be told. ......5 stars )
