82 this morning.  It is warming up as predicted and, holy cow, it is supposed to be 79° by Tuesday.  It is going to be in the high 70s for the week but then it is supposed to cool down.

115 this partly cloudy morning.

49° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 63°/45° much warmer. Not sure it will get all the way to 63° but that would be nice. The yard tigers would love to sun themselves on the front deck...

That is the kind of temp that I would love. Our highs today would be twice as much as that.

Got up a little early and found myself at 112. I'm a bit confused if this is before DP struck or is my good behavior paying off.

I would prefer to think it is your 'good behavior' paying off.  :)

88 this morning.  It is going to get warmer this week, 76° today and 79° tomorrow.  Next week we are supposed to cool all the way down to the 60s !  Pretty warm for December, even for here.
Off for an appointment with my PCP this morning.  Just a routine follow up, all my labs looked OK, A1c 5.0 again and lipids all within normal range so I don't expect anything but a "come back in 4 months" result.

60° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 55°/36° with periods of rain. Yesterday was a lovely sunny day, today is dreary, rainy and dark...

Found myself unusually high at 147. I had gotten up during the night with some acid reflux and chewed on one of those antacid tabs. It surely is sugared but one sma;; tab shouldn't do that much damage. Must have been the cashew I had last night post meal.

135 this morning.

When I have nuts as a snack after supper, my BG always goes higher as evidenced by my fasting number this morning.  My cgm shows this starting about 6-8 hours after I have eaten the nuts.

89 this morning.  It is still unseasonably warm here with a high of 77° yesterday and a high of 79° predicted for today.  Apparently there is a warm trend across most of the country right now.
I don't seem to have a problem with some nuts, almonds are the best, but I do avoid cashews as they do raise my bg.

123 this breezy, cloudy, drizzly morning. I slept really late it was 10:30 when I finally got up.

48° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 48°/34° with periods of rain. It is another dreary day...

Nursing a sore tooth hope it gets better soon.

My latest food obsession is pistachios. They don't seem to raise my bg but I don't eat them in the evening.

A sore tooth might soon become a "mad" tooth requiring a trip to the dentist.  In case that happens, the dentist office here is really very careful about Covid precautions and I feel fairly comfortable going there, except I don't like going there to begin with.....:)  Good Luck Barbara.  I see the GP tomorrow for a diabetic check required every 3 months by Medicare of people using insulin pumps.  Oh...and I woke up with another UTI.  :(

That's probably DP at work. Even with T1s the liver does work the same way. More so I would think.

So do I, but that day I just wanted a change  :'(

Hope it subsides and you feel better. A trip to the dentist is a nightmare for me too.

148 today. Still running high. Have we lost the ability or the mind ?

99 this morning.

I'm seeing the GP this afternoon for diabetic check required by Medicare for pump users and for Rx for the UTI.  :(  After that if it isn't snowing, we're going to the grocery store.

96 this morning.  It is hard to imagine snow when it is 79° here.  According to the Weather Channel December is going to be warmer than usual here.
I have been lucky and haven't had a sore tooth for a long time.  For some reason no matter how often I brush and floss I tend to have plaque buildup more than normal so I am on a 3 month schedule for tooth cleaning and have a check up twice a year so I kind of keep up on it.

107 this partly cloudy morning.

48° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is for a much warmer 63ˆ/46° may be some rain.

Apparently I had some sort of infection running down the side of my nose to my gum yesterday. It was quite sore but after I had a warm cup of bone broth it drained out and feels fine today. I've actually had that same thing happen there before and it cleared up the same way. Odd...

Now dealing with a sore foot after falling last night....
