Good Morning, Everyone. Happy Caturday!

Rusty's range of numbers is still too high, so I decided to fatten his dose by 1 drop: I'm calling it 1.5fat and it measures 2.33mm with the digital calipers on the Terumo syringe. He's been sitting too long in these numbers, either because he needs more insulin, or because I have not yet figured out how to measure on the Terumos the same dose he was getting on the Monojects. I was going to wait to do this until our houseguests (who arrive on Monday) were gone, but that won't be until next Wednesday and today is only Saturday.

Rusty had a good night sleeping with his beans. He finished all his nighttime food at some point (maybe close to dawn, as seems to be his pattern and is one reason why a higher AMPS is not too worrisome; but I consider "higher" to be in the 140 range, not the 170!!) This morning we had a good shot with the TTs (only a tiny bit of insulin on the tip of the syringe after shooting), and a good breakfast of Wellness turkey. He's napping in his little bed, waiting to go outside.

The "ChrisMoose" party yesterday afternoon and evening was great. Our hosts had Xmas lights on their outdoor trees, Xmas decorations up, and a very summery menu (cook-out stuff and great salads).

Off soon to the farmers' market. Wishing you all a great weekend,

Ella & Rusty

Hi Ella and good luck on fattening the dose for Rusty. How fun with the ChrisMoose party! I was curious about it. Enjoy the Farmer's market today!

Hi Ella!
Good luck with the 2.33 mm dose! The ChrisMoose party sounds like great fun. Enjoy your outing to the Farmers Market. I tried out my local one, but it isn't nearly as nice as yours!
I hope that you, Edward, and Rusty have a great weekend.

Happy Caturday, Ella! His Majesty sends his regards :mrgreen:

I was wondering about the digital calipers - Shai/Fitzel was asking about them the other day. Are you finding them very helpful? Are there downsides to using them, in your opinion? I'll relay the info to Shai - we've been in touch via email since Shai and Judith are still having internet issues.

Have a fabulous weekend! Stop by Karre's Caturday condo, if you like - we'd love to see you there.
Hugs,
Jane

Hi Ella.
I wanted to get to out farmer's market today, but it was in the 90's and I don't do heat well.

Good luck on the drop increase for Rusty. I'm thinking of raising Checks, so he can get down to Rusty's numbers. :smile:
Mmmm, I'm dreaming of a wonderful supper you're probably making with the fresh veggies you bought today. :-D
I ain't turning on the stove. Corn flakes, here I come. :lol:

Hope all is well in Rusty land. Good luck with the dosecrease. Rusty will return to his lovely numbers quickly I hope. Hope you are enjoying the balance of the summer and all your activities.

Have a great weekend.

Hi again,
Thanks to everyone for visiting us. Barbara, it's good to see you on your computer again!! How's the leg? Is Nurse Tuffy still on duty?

It looks like the extra drop of Levemir is beginning to have an effect already. We'll see what happens this evening. It is still hot here and poor Rusty, with his beautiful, long fur coat, is feeling it. But the heat didn't stop him from spending almost 2 hours outside this late afternoon, lounging in the shade. He was not disturbed by any chipmunks or squirrels. There were lots of hummingbirds at the feeders, but he ignores them (and they him!).

Everyone have a good evening,

Ella & Rusty
