My neighbour and I have been on better terms since poor old Churchill bit the dust after her daughter arrived with tears in her eyes...a bunch of roses and a little card to say how sorry she was to hear about Churchie...so now he's in & out DJC I'll probably walk him later but he spends more time at 'home' & its working out really well...yesterday he was in his element lots of people to say hello in the café...delicious food and he got to order his own biscuit...Dennis is being a little trooper and I have no doubt he will be spoilt rotten by Mr C...so relax and enjoy the spa visit.what a lovely surprise to see Plumpy, I’ve missed a few weeks on here, is he back for visits or sleepovers or what? I bet he’s tickled pink to see you however it’s come about.
So have I MJ...I don't often work that much but the last two weeks have been exceptional...things should quieten down by Saturday thankfully.been doing shifts for over 30 yrs
Harry spends more time 'next door' now PM and I have a set of keys so will walk him when I can...it is working out very well...things have been better since Olivia (my little neighbour) aged nine broke the deadlock when she heard about Churchill's demise and arrived here in tears...children have a wonderful way of putting things into perspective & teaching us a valuable lesson...yes we are planning to visit Battersea to rescue a cat (or two) likely to go Monday...there are a couple of Wood Green charities not too far away but to my surprise they are not terribly user friendly...there are a couple of cats I have my eye on hoping to 'reserve' one at the weekend so we can meet them on Monday.@HarryBeau lovely to see you and Harry together but please dont get your heart broken again. He is a beautiful fella. Are you and your “special advisors” still planning to go to Battersea at half term?

He was...lovely to take him for coffee yesterday...he's such a sweetie...he played the crowd shamefully Krystyna.That's great to hear that you are spending some time with Plumpy - it must have been so lovely to see him again. I bet he was pleased to see you again.
Love the sound of Gladys DJC...how sweet I'm not sure how many people realise they are just soft gentle giants...yes it was awful with poor Churchill going...I went through the usual I'm never having another cat...just realised the house needs a cat...I need a cat & there's a cat out there who needs us...so off to Battersea on Monday with Olivia (my little neighbour) and Georgia my nieces daughter to find us a rescue cat or maybe even two.Gladys would queue up politely by the sausage stall and wait her turn, the stall holder would pass her a sausage and off she’d go back home with it.

Lord knows what will happen with the girls in tow...they'd come home with a car full of cats so I have to be kind but firm when we get there...we're all looking forward to it.That’s wonderful, and so exciting that your new bf is just waiting for you to find him/ her. I can’t wait to hear how it goes.
Oh thats really a great step forward for all of you and especially Harry. I am very excited for you meeting your new fur baby/babies. Maybe it will be like us, went for one came away with two that needed homing together. Cant wait for pics. Good old Harry he is a gentle giant.Harry spends more time 'next door' now PM and I have a set of keys so will walk him when I can...it is working out very well...things have been better since Olivia (my little neighbour) aged nine broke the deadlock when she heard about Churchill's demise and arrived here in tears...children have a wonderful way of putting things into perspective & teaching us a valuable lesson...yes we are planning to visit Battersea to rescue a cat (or two) likely to go Monday...there are a couple of Wood Green charities not too far away but to my surprise they are not terribly user friendly...there are a couple of cats I have my eye on hoping to 'reserve' one at the weekend so we can meet them on Monday.
He's a real sweetheart PM a clumsy heavy footed sweetheart but his big heart is in the right place...no idea what cats they will have when we get there...hoping to reserve one I have seen but whatever happens I'm sure we'll find a gorgeous KitKat that needs a good home getting more excited than the girls.Good old Harry he is a gentle giant.
No need to apologise, enjoy sleeping. Most of my life I have always though sleep to be a waste of time and burnt my candles at both ends, I know that it isn't healthy but there always feels so much to fit in and so little time in which to do it. However this recent denial of sleep really is a step to far.I want to start by apologising to those who are finding their sleeping hours robbed,
Dr unwin prescribed one for a short time (14 days I think) to a t2d with uncontrolled bs. Worked amazingly well. You would get a good idea in a month for sure. They are brilliant.Good morning to the early crowd followed by good morning to one and all. A 5.5 for me today and another short nights sleep before a busy day.
@gennepher I admire your tenacity and thank you for such interesting observations. Well done on achieving a better understanding on how to control this awful Type2, brilliant.@ianpspurs and @dunelm hugs and empathy for the lack of sleep.
I am still learning such a lot and still baffled by much of what my pet Dracula tells me. At the moment I find long fasts raise my readings but like @dunelm and I suspect others a snack on cheese or nuts before sleep helps to lower them. Too much protein can raise them significantly. I have not yet been brave enough to try pastry, pasta, chips, crumble puddings, oh for a Rhubarb Crumble or bread and butter pudding, and bread in any amount spikes me. Of course I have no idea what goes on between readings, would like a Libra Sytem but am not sure I can stretch my finances to self funding without curtailing other pleasures of living but it may be the only way forward, we shall see.
There is a few threads re IF but I'm not sure which is best but @Goonergal will be able to help.Very interesting - I have found exactly the same. 15 hours works really well but anything over that results in higher numbers all day.
