    Well done, Beth! Mogs and Linda and others had quite a marathon helping Mittens last night. I, unfortunately, had to crash because my health issues don't play nice with being over tired. :)

    Bless your heart, Kris...I'm so glad you took care of you. Your words last night really hit home with me..that in this between time between now and switch I really have the two choices: minus full or minus small drop. I also am trying a new thing this AM where instead of letting him drop like a rock I give just a tiny bit of food in this +1.5 time frame( unless he grazes on his own) to try to slow the drop a bit...we shall see. My goal today/tomorrow is to stay out of the way of other kitties who need real time help unless we have an emergency. So don't worry about us...if things get Scroogy:)i will send up a flare.:cat:;):bighug::bighug::bighug:. Give Teasel and civvies some scritches from us :cat::cat::cat::cat::cat:

    You'll be fine! I like your plan to try steering with a little snack at +1.5.

    Great minds think alike Kris! LOL! Was just checking Elmo's SS to see where he was at a few minutes ago but didn't see any numbers posted. :)

    Kris and Linda....You two are the best..Elmo is same as yesterday except my trying to steer the first few hours so he floated down instead of thudding was a rather epic fail....gave too much and too high a carb...trying a different approach tonight...my desk top where post SS has been crawling but will try to fill in before bed....thanks for checking..you have taught me well :)...here are today's offering from Mr Elmo...I hope and pray your Christmas Eve is quieter !!!
    AMPS. 173. .25 minus small drop
    +1.5. 154
    +2.5. 148
    +3.5. 162. Steering gone awry
    +5. 141
    PMPS. 194. .25 minus small drop
    And that is the story of the day....will post rest of tonight's before bed and hopefully the wheel of death will have stopped on that dang desk top.....maybe I do need to back over it with the Buick:)

    Oh Beth keep that sense of humour and you will be more than just fine! You are doing so well but I felt we left you out to dry today! Apparently you managed just fine without us and that's our goal. Carry on. You have graduated from a Freshman to a Sophomore or maybe even a Junior. :D We're still watching your back. Mittens is still a concern but otherwise things seem quiet for the moment. antijinx-emoticon.png

    Oh, no, Linda, not out to dry at all. The whole situation with Mittens, Dan and Heather has been heavy on my heart. That you all can care for and carry the burden of it is beyond me. Praying for you all to have wisdom and peace as well as for Mittens, Dan and Heather.Makes me cry.

    You still have a little room to drop. If it were me I'd do 0.25 without letting out the drop, esp when you can test, to try to get it into the upper double digits.
