Amps 249 Libre

Good morning,
Ivy had quite an active am cycle yesterday. Lots of small snacks to keep her coasting and stop her from dropping.
And then she bounced up high to pinks on her Libre last night. Eventually came down only to yellow. Guess she earned that bounce.
Now she can come back down today to nicer numbers. Enough bouncing high please

Maybe her depot has recalibrated from the drain/skip on Friday ?? (so I could attend the wedding Friday night).
Guess we will see how it goes today

Hope you all have a safe surf and a good Monday

 

[Jack & Mopem'sMom]

Hope Ivy comes back to nice numbers safely! Have a good week

Thanks, Christine, you too!!

Hi Staci,
It does look like Ivy is recalibrating!
Also, she still may be bouncing from AM yesterday. That was quite a descending ride!
I'm sure She is setting up for the next action. Stay tuned!
Wishing you and Ivy a wonderful day!

 

[Karen and Chispa (GA)]

That WAS quite the dramatic drop yesterday ... yowzers!! <--(that's me on an imaginary rollercoaster, screaming my head off)
Chispa seems to wait two cycles to bounce. Somebody told me it's a "thing" with some cats. They like to keep us guessing.
Happy Monday, Staci -- hope this week will bring smoother sailing!

I hope Ivy keeps sliding down today.

Thanks for your thoughts, Kit. I assume that's what is going on. (But it's all such a mystery!)

Haha, Karen! Me too!! I wanted to scream like on a rollercoaster. She's really good at it.
At least you have a "clue" with Chispa. Any yes, they are very mysterious!

Hi Staci,

seems like Ivy is bouncing a bit from her ambitious day yesterday. But I see she is coming down and there is still the chance, she does one of her famous late dips, isn't it? Anyhow, I am glad it looks like you slept in your bed last night.

I hope you have a wonderful start in the new week!

Hi Heike, yes she was high enough I got in bed by 9:45 last night. I was so exhausted from the all night party on Saturday night.
Still very tired today!
I think you are correct, she's bounced from such an aggressive cycle yesterday and the prior night. Busy girl.

She may give us a famous dip soon. She is going lower as I type, the lowest she's gone all day long
Of course I prepared 6% for her dinner....so let's see if I have to amend that choice in 2 hours.

Hope you both have a calm night and Binie does well with her current meds!!
Hugs to both of you for a calm night and feeling well

Hi Staci, just now I realize, choosing the right food is even more complicated for you, as you have to take it early enough out of the freezer? Ivy is really lucky!

I hope she is not too busy tonight and stays in safe numbers, so you can sleep in your bed. Saturday night was really hard-core....

Good night!

 

[Diane Tyler's Mom GA]

Hi Staci, I'm glad you got to sleep in your bed last night and got to bed earlier. I'm sure you're still exhausted. I hope she stays surfing nice and steady tonight

Yes, you are exactly correct Heike. (You pay close attention to all of the details.)
I defrost the 6% as I assume that’s what I will feed and mix in all the measured supplements.
However I’ve gotten pretty good at quickly thawing a higher carb meal when needed at the last minute. (I freeze meal size portions so I need to defrost one meal quickly). I can’t microwave it since there are already some supplements mixed in.
So I get a hot bowl of water and immerse the baggie in hot water and it thaws in about 10 minutes. It’s always at the last minute. I’m racing the clock. Usually at 5:30 am when she’s very low and I need to feed a higher carb food. Just one more levels of stress to add to my pre-dawn routine.

Ivy has no idea how complicated her care really is

Hi Diane,
It was such a luxury to sleep in bed last night. Still tired, you’re right! Takes a few days to recover.
Who knows what’s up her paw for tonight
We are sending you hugs

 

[Diane Tyler's Mom GA]

You better be a good girl tonight for mama

 

[Alicia & Kit cat (GA)]

I'm glad you got to sleep in your bed last night! That is always so nice.
I didn't sleep in my bed, but I did have a dream that one of my best friends was in - she could change into a cat, but also keep her human face as a cat if she wanted to. It was sort of weird.
I hope that Ivy's depot settles in soon so there's less up and down - although tonight she looks like she's doing pretty well!

That’s a crazy dream, Alicia!!
I wonder what it all means.
I had a strange dream, too. I was at my grandparents apartment building (which I knew very, very well) and somehow couldn’t find my way back to their door.

I could still picture every step of those hallways since we spent many hours exploring the building when we were there as kids with my cousins.
And yet something was keeping me from getting back to their apartment.
Sounds like a stress dream to me

That would be super stressful! I think I'm having fewer stress dreams right now (just weird ones), and its more that I can't really get back to sleep even more than usual because my brain starts thinking about the list of things that needs to be done and then freaking out. Yaaaaay.
