Yesterday was BLUEtiful. Neko, why couldn't you just keep doing that? :roll:

9/24 Recap:
AMPS 118 +3 215 +8 160
PMPS 150 +3 176 +9 146

Neko had a fabulous night, very flat and very blue. She was playing with her nanners and catnip ball after dinner and seemed in a really good mood. For this morning +9/pre row check she was also following me around, (im)patiently waiting for treats. I have no idea what happened for today's +3, but I have a couple of theories. (1) it had been 10 cycles since she last did pink and she knows how much I miss it. ohmygod_smile I've noted before that too much of a good thing (blues) can get her liver nervous. (2) The night before last she dipped low and I missed it. She often saves the bounces for the 3rd cycle after the low. I know it isn't a fur shot, because it's not even onset yet and she doesn't go up that fast from a fur shot. Or she could just be a cat, which is part of theory number 1.

After all those nice numbers lately, Neko isn't feeling comfortable in her pink dress anymore. This morning she was running for the kitchen every time we opened the fridge door, even though she'd eaten all of her meals. Paws crossed she's coming down now with onset. Suns out, so at least snoozing in the heat in the solarium is some compensation.

Fall is definitely hitting here. This morning's row was brrrr. Time to haul out the fleece and pogies for the morning. I think Neko might have a "fur shot" on Sunday morning. I'm in a race and I have to be there at PS time. Normally I would just move her PS up a bit, but I have a meeting on Thursday that often goes late resulting in PMPS going later and I wouldn't have time to move the shot up enough. We'll see, I might just crack the whip on Thursday. One advantage of Levemir is the later onset. I can give Neko insulin, and head out for several hours, knowing that onset is quite a bit later. The race doesn't take long - it's only 5.3 km. It's also close to home which is why I can enter it. Although I'll be shuttling back and forth for a test, as I have to give out the prizes later.

I'm thinking of Marje and Mike today and sending vines of comfort.

Sorry about the bounce. Hopefully she'll clear it quickly. It's good she doesn't like being pink. Good luck deciding how to handle her shot Sunday morning.

@Dale - Black krim, pruden's purple, stupice, sweetie, jaune flamme, peron, winter keeper, some italian type I got at our little Italy section of town and my favorite called "big", which is from seed DH's coworkers Italian mother grew in eastern Canada. He didn't know the English name. I like the heritage ones best. My counters are covered with yellow, orange, red, pink, and purple tomatoes.
Wow!

I've grown all those except for sweetie and peron. I have seeds for peron but haven't grown yet. Tried both long keeper and winter red from burpee in years past. And various italian open polinated varities. And every color but the newest *blueberry* blue.

I especially appreciate heirlooms but ironically this year it was all round red hybrids. The only heirloom I planted out was a grafted Mortgage Lifter (clearance plant from a nursery) and it also turned out to be round and red.

But amost any round red (homegrown) is better than store bought or nothing. ;-)

Lovely cycles! Except for that stinky pinky. :-x Good luck figuring out the shot schedule... :roll: And good luck in the race. :-D What is a "pogie"? I looked on google: a fish or unemployment insurance. :lol: :lol: Oh, I looked again: a flap for the hands. That must be the one. :lol:

I'm so happy Neko's numbers are looking so good, except for that +3. :-D
But then she was blue again! Good girl.
I hope she'll stay in blue tonight, Wendy!

Phew - Neko got her blues back again and as a result, she is feeling better.

@Carla - You called it, back to blue again. I'll know better tomorrow night what I can do for Sunday's shot schedule.

@Dale - This is the first year for perons and they'll stay in the mix. They are a classic red tomato and did well. Sweeties are cherry tomatoes and VERY prolific. So agree on the home grown being better than store bought. That's why the winter keeper or long keeper, so I can eat my own tomatoes in February.

@Liz - She has been doing great on this dose so far, except the one test. :roll: Not sure how we'll do in the race. The four of us in the boat haven't rowed together yet. Ah well, it's mostly for the experience. DH and I burst out laughing at your googling. :lol: :lol: Pogies are fleece mitts for the hands with holes for the oars to go through.

@Mariko - Neko does like to surprise me occasionally. At least she's back in blue so far.
