I do love a good chat. Today despite feeling pretty drained all day. After a half hour catnap after work I felt a little more alive.
So spoke my vlog. To be fair it took me a couple of goes as the first one I prattled on far too long. I made an executive decision to bin that one as frankly it was maybe just a little too real for anyone.
I often try and free mind myself that my channel is a virtual related one. However it’s difficult for me as I’m always being me.
Anyhow if you do choose to listen, I’d suggest a good cuppa as well.

I mean I’m not right now standing outside wearing panties and pasties. Heaven forbid. It’s rather cold!!!
It’s my lunch break and I’m actually sitting on my sofa drinking tea and eating lunch.
The sight is track pants, sweater and looking like I’ve not really slept in a long while.
It’s Friday and away goes another week of life that I frantically would like to get back and change. As you know I’ve been experiencing a hyperglycaemic period which is something very new to me.
It was very upsetting as well as surreal as no one was listening until I spoke to the 111 service. Yesterday I had blood tests I was told to expect back next week.
They were it appears returned late to the surgery yesterday and a GP had to ring me which he did early this morning.
As a result it confirmed that I was not ok and they’re sending me extra medication. I have to double the lot I take now by slowly introducing in the next week and I’ll be retested in 3 months. If it doesn’t work then it’s injections. Something I really wasn’t expecting.
I don’t want that in my life. I struggle just to do my prick tests so that thought bothers me huge time. So fingers crossed I don’t end up there.
Apparently my reads are worse than when I was initially diagnosed so I have to make huge lifestyle changes.
Covid impact? Yes . Life has been harder during this year and I guess lack of my lifestyle activities has had a huge impact. On top of that the depression I feel about lack of people contact.
I’m not alone I know. So maybe we should set up a friends group for people who struggle?
Anyhow think on that. Back to work I go. Saturday sale!!! Don’t forget.,

It’s 10 pm here U.K. time and unlikely I’ll get much sleep tonight.
I’m exhausted to be honest but I also don’t feel I can go to bed. I’ve had a really rubbish few days. Like really rubbish. I could have said days ago, Sunday, yesterday but I didn’t.
I try and just crack on as nothing worse than a whiner.
So I had the vaccine on the 12 March and ached a few days like an old woman. Job done all over.
Wednesday last week a headache started. Got bad Thursday night/Friday morning into Saturday. Apart from headaches felt ok if not more tired .
I put it all down to side effects.
Sunday started getting an odd nausea moment now and then. Monday comes and I’m literally buzzing and more awake and alert I’ve felt in a long time. On top of that I’ve been peeing like a ridiculous constant and can’t stop drinking.
Then the nausea gets worse and keeps coming. Then the sweating. In the meanwhile I’m starting to test my sugars to make sure I’m ok. They’re reading 23 then 21 and basically been that way a few days.
Today I tried to get a call back from a doctor at the GP surgery and instead I got a call back from a nurse. I describe what I’m feeling and that I’m constantly peeing and can’t satiate my thirst.
So the first thing she says in her why you wasting my time voice was to say in a gruff voice “why are you testing your sugars” errr I’m a diabetic!! Then proceeds to tell me I shouldn’t have to. Well gosh tell the doctor then as it’s the doctor that prescribed me the stuff to record my readings.
Nurse then proceeds to tell me I either have menopause or I may need a check as she thinks I have a prolapse!!! So yes what can I say at this point? What part of diabetic did she not hear.
But let’s make things worse. I said I need to be seen. So an appointment is made for me today at 3pm. Nope not see a doctor but the paramedic!! He who doesn’t know about diabetes at all.
It gets worse. So he takes my blood pressure. It’s high but he says he isn’t worried by it, takes a blood test to read the sugar, it’s high and he says I shouldn’t worry about it as it’s normal. So again my mouth was agape. ( in my masks). Anyone with a brain cell knows a diabetic should go above 12 at the worst but 21 that’s serious.
I hand him a bottle of pee and he asks me what for. Err to check my ketones as I’m a diabetic. so he dips the stick and says yes they’re a bit high but he isn’t worried.
Then he is about to dismiss me and I say ummm I’m feeling sick, I have a constant headache, I’m sweating, peeing and can’t get enough water and my stomach pain.
Apparently I need Gaviscon and to get my eyes tested as its maybe my vision causing me to feel this way.
Glad I was wearing a mask because under it I was looking at him mouthing the C U next Tuesday word.
No I really was.
I’ve got blood test on Thursday but here I am at home in pain, feeling sick and still got high sugars. It’s 10:30 pm and I can’t go sleep like this.
Moral of the story ? Right now the NHS is questionable.
But if you want to see how incompetent today was. Don’t take my word. The phot below the credits is a text message sent to me after my consultation on the phone with the nurse.
Apparently I’m a candidate to consider being checked for diabetes!!!! Oh an apparently referring to blood tests? I don’t need to say more!
I’ve become a real believer that when making dance videos you really need to see the dance.
I love a story in my videos but I’ve learnt those are for my own self indulgence and the most important thing is to show people what a dance looks like.
Well you won’t miss this one as it’s pretty sassy and check out the technique!!!
Anyhow I’m asleep by the time this is seen (scheduled) so let me know tomorrow what you think.

Good morning and Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums out there and those who have left us and those who are still to come.
Each Mother’s Day I’m reminded that my mum is not here and I cannot say those words ever again. But I can say them to everyone else.
So Happy Mother’s Day.
It’s a bit weird this year as no one can see each other properly. I received my gifts of flowers and specially made cookies from my daughter and grandson on my doorstep earlier.
Not long till we can spend better time together.
My son will drop by later today and I’m looking forward to that as I miss him so.
Anyhow enough of the mush, let’s visit Stars by Cica Ghost. Purple is my clothing choice for today.
Well I’ve had my invite for the Vaccine. Strangely I feel like it’s a history making moment.
Not that I am important to historical noting but because it’s that feeling that in years from now what is debated amongst people will become the norm.
I prefer to look at it like those wordings “one small step for us, one giant leap for everyone”.
(Note my politically correct version before someone decides to have a keyboard moment! )
I personally am grateful that there is a vaccine and it’s out there. There’s no ultimate guarantees but at least it’s a start. Much like the flu vaccine. It won’t get rid of the damn pesky virus, but perhaps make its existence less taxing on our bodies.
I work with a few people who are anti vaxxers and what we fondly call Covid idiots.
You know the ones, just because no one they personally know has been affected, then clearly it doesn’t exist mindset.
It’s difficult having conversations on the subject because of this and it does make me feel that our world is divided and living in parallels.
I’ve said this before much like the Mandela effect, there is this Covid effect. We’re living in the Matrix!!!
Now here I’m living in the Matrix and my virtual person is me!!!

Today I quite fancy a balloon ride somewhere up there in the sky. No particular destination in mind just as long as it is sunny, safe and the only people allowed are reasonable minded people with a positive view to share.
I see so much negativity out in the world right now that I wish for a magic balloon to take me away.
Though I know, that’s never going to happen. We all know that magic balloons only fly in our minds and in reality we have to face what is real and daft.
I’m just having my lunch and treated myself to a hot cross bun, tea and an orange. Rather simple and unexciting I know. but tasty none the less.
I hope you all have a dream balloon as well in your minds. If you do? Let me know and we can do a race to see who gets to the magical destination first!
I’m just chilling in my real little world and enjoying the peace. I’m not in SL tonight as frankly I don’t feel like it.
Some days reality is deserving of my attention especially when the sun comes out like it did today.
Plus I’m going to give it a break while I go SHEIN mad online. Seriously I’m in purchase mode from there and loving the prices and the quality is pretty good too.
I’ve gone earring mad tonight and treated myself to some T-shirt’s and a few dresses for the summer.
Then it was Amazon’s turn where I went wacko on some gel nail polish and body butters.
So I look forward to my self treats as to be honest I very rarely do them and I feel I should more often. So that’s all I’m saying today because I’ve got the rest of this lovely evening to enjoy and that I shall.
Films night! I’m up late absorbing fantasy.
By the way Saturday Sale is in and today’s number is from Entice.

I’ve danced on many a chair and pole in Second Life. But seriously none like this!!
It’s no secret I’m very partial to anything Jonny from Paragon brings into Second Life, after all I work with him.
But, I do so with a passion for the quality of what I get to work with and this latest chair dance is pure sass!!
I’ve actually recorded 3 versions of this dance. One is this, the other is a different feel lighting and the third. Well that one is far more raunchier than I usually produce.
That one I will upload to Flickr because it certainly cannot go onto YouTube at all.
I’ll do that in the next few days. Then re link back in this blog. for now though you can have the tamer version. Enjoy……
