Yesterday

New Libre continues to work well, and Gen came and snuggled with me in bed, so I seem to be forgiven for the wrestling match. ❤️ His numbers continue to be sky high, ugh, and I hate not knowing what those two Libre-less cycles looked like. Also it is in the single digits outside here today, but it was 78F in my apartment when I left (a very unpleasant transition!), and I am a little worried that he won't be inclined to eat much during the day (numbers aside, he needs the nutrition). At least I can keep an eye on him as far as BG goes again.

He was so purry and snuggly this morning; it was really hard to leave. The idea of cameras is tempting, but I just dropped so much money on uninsured sensors; they're $89/each at CVS (I was able to get two this time, so I have a spare). I'm really broke. We can do without them for now - maybe in the new year.

"Hey, why are you taking a photo instead of petting me continuously?! AHEM."

(Please ignore the obvious mess piled up behind him. Everything has been so much lately ... I am behind on housework.)
 
He really doesn't seem to love having his picture taken! I can't resist doing it, but I get more than my fair share of grumpy face shots (which isn't really a great representation of his attitude overall). 😅

Wrestling match.🤣
I'd ask who won, but he's wearing his cute little shirt.
As for the libre systems. I don't know if this still works, but this was shown to me when I mentioned they were too costly to consider.

Sadly I am having a very hard time with the coupon - there are posts there on that thread and on mine from yesterday about it, but yesterday an Abbott rep told me it can't be used in my state at all. (The coupon itself contradicts that, so the issue remains open, but I'm going to need a break before I do another hour+ on hold.)

I wish I were exaggerating about the wrestling match part!

You anywhere closer to a state line? I'm guessing not, at no one with any shirt if good luck is in this forum.😅 But if you were, could be worth trying.
I have 2 cats I have to pill daily. One is easier. The other (funnily enough named Angel-haha), I have to wrap my body around her. I get it
