Good Morning,Marie. 42 degrees here. I had a good night. BG finally out of the 200'2. Boy he must have given me a heavy dose of Cortisone. Up at 5 as Tom went running 18 miles. He is getting ready for a Maraton. I cannot even run to the door haha. All cleared up from the holiday. Lots of stuff left over. I did a lot of Christmas shopping on line yesterday. I cannot see me going into stores with a walker. Tom going to finish painting the peak of the house. Big game today ends the season Florida vs Florida State. Need to work in grocery shopping. How are things with you? You sleep good? Yur Readings OK/ Kathy told me they have snow. Sorry your dinner not Good. This was the 42nd year I did the holiday. Used to have a big crowd. Take good care. When is Ed's birthday is it around 12/2? Hugs,Reed
Hi Marie- I hope you and Ed had a pleasant T-giving. We had a last minute invite to eat dinner with some new friends we met recently. I ate a little bit of everything except the stuffing, and by this morning my BG was back to normal. Jim has been having some trouble getting his blood thinned with just coumadin. A new doc put him on Lovenox too. It is an injectable anti-coagulant. Now he knows what shots feel like. I hope it helps to thin his blood. How is your mother doing ? Did you get her settled in her apt ? Today looks like it will be a nice, sunny day. Supposed to go up to 60. Have a good weekend. I plan to stay away from all of the malls, no crazy shopping for me. Take care. Cat
the t:slim, has so far, been the best move I've ever made. Gorilla Glass touch screen, tones that are easy for an ol grump like me to hear without fail, and all of the functions make sense, and everything's in color. Its like an iPhone with a pump app. I checked with John Walsh (insulin-pumpers) and he gave it high praise. Now, after getting used to it (5-6 weeks) I find it no less than the best I've ever owned. & I have been at it a while!
Good Morning,Marie. What a bight. My knees started to ache about 1. I tossed and turned and got up at 3, Seeing the orthopedic doctor at 1:30...no doubt shots I am going to ask him if there is a pain pill I can take between shots.How are you doing> Were tiyr Readings good? It is a great thing you are doing working in the fod pantry. I bever realized how many needy families there are. TOPS meets in a church. They have a food pantry. The first meetng of the month we give to the food pantry. The pastor asked us for a while to bring soap shampoo toothbrushes toothpaste etc. I hope all is well with you. My best to Ed, BG 106. Take good care, I care, HUGS,Reed
Hi Marie, Thanks for the warm welcome,I see chat is not working its a little after midnite here maybe it shuts down then or maybe everyone is asleep. I am a shift worker and sometimes have dificulty sleeping. I have read some post and I guess i am not the only one who has problems with controling my diabeties. Bye for now
Good Morning,Marie. I am so sorry you did not have a good night and yout BG out of whack. Yhe night before I was up all night BUT last night I slept like a log I must have strains of Percocet still in my stem as I am typing the words wrong. The A/C heating man just left. Everything fine so I am all set for thew Winter. It is dark gere and cold. Tom comes Wed afternoon and goes home late Sunda. One project for him waterproof the deck. No TOPS this week. I am going to call Dr. Hort my ortho mAn to see if I can get a cortisone shot and to ask if there is a prescription pill I can use when pain hets severe. Sorry you are not feeling better..get well soon. My best to Ed. HUGS,Reed
Good Morning,Marie. I am in such pain with my knees I did not sleep at all. My whole body seems affected. It is getting to the point I do not want to go to bed. BG 106. Dreary rain cold. Tom is running a half marathon. It started at 6AM. His number was 698 so there is at leas that number running. We will go to MASS at 11. Sorry your readings were not good. Is your Mom hard to deal with? It seems she is never satisfied. We got the new grille. Streets in the city all blocked off getting read for the opening of the NIGHTS OF LIGHTS...it is awesome. Christmas it seems now starts in October. Sorry abou the cheese.It is not honorable what they do. I ordered my fresh turkey. You staying home or going out? Take good care of yourself. I care and give my very best to Ed. HUGS,Reed
I got it last Monday, 12th November. I had my Spirit 5 years so was due an update from the PCT. It's fab :) but easy and straight forward to use as the pump is pretty much the same (some of the options in the menu have slightly different names though which is a bit confusing and it's all updated but definitely for the better :)
Good Morning,Marie. I must have been tired as I slept until 8. It is so nasty oit that Tom only ran a short distance. Terrible about the cheese. I still think it is not legal but how can you prove it? My BG 106. Were you able to get through the night? I hope we good Readings. When does the trainer come? What do you hear from your MOM? Has she quieted down? It seems like she is in a good place. Going to buy an outside grille this morning. My knees better this morning. I got the legal work done. Russ could not remember we had money in that bank so there was no charge. My best to Ed. Take good care of yourself. I care. HUGS,Reed
Hi Marie, Oh many thanks. This is such an incredible community...very special I can already tell. That is awesome that you have the Accu-Chek Spirit. Would love to hear what pump you choose next...I get to have a new pump next year so it is great to hear what will be available then. What a warm & welcoming community. Absolutely love it. smiles, Saundie :)
marie my main question is have u ever heard of the eye pressure going from to high to too low that's what i got going on right now. u know me and my health it just does weird things and this is one of the weird ones i'm going every 6 weeks right now to see what's going on. she dosen't even know k here's my problem which i know that all kinds of tech things have been found now........................my g-father went blind due to this and it bothers me
Good Morning,Marie. I did not have a good night. Every bone in my body ached. My knees terrible. It is dreary cold and damp here. My BG 106. Well did you figure out everything in the box. How often do you have to change things. I have a piece of cheese stuck to my forehead. I hope it works. Wasn't it great we made the BBT quota. Manny was so pleased.I suppose you have to start filling up your fridge. Friends on Staten Island still do not have power. I was invited out for Thanksgiving but I will stay right here and the three of us will have Thanksgiving. Give my nest to Ed. Cheese. Reed
Marie,just read on Gator's page that you are sick too.Hope you feel better soon.I know you are under much stress.Try and rest if you can.Thoughts and Prayers sent your way Sweet Marie..
Hello Marie. Sorry you have a cold BG's crazy. Now your Mother. I would tell her the place says she cannot move. TOUGH LOVE. My legs are awful. Can hardly walk..I did manage to get to the barber holding on to Tom. Smething has to be done but I do not know what. Makes me all out of sorts. Anymore on the cheese? Something good has to happen son. I just do not feel like doing anything. Take good care of yourself. Gargle and drink fluids. Take care. HUGS,Reed
