| | | forgot my shot
forgot to take my basal shot last night... at least i 'think' i did... pretty certain.
So not sure how i'll be today, was drinking last night at a party so i think that lowered my bg a little this morning.
ahhhhhhh sucks when this happens makes me feel so dumb.. and really doesn't help a self induced hangover
