hi, its me again. just to fill you in, its coming up on 2 full weeks in bed with this cruel and unforgiving bug. aches, pains, changing temp basal rates, and a head that feels like it will implode. sweaty and then cold, ugh.

needless to say, i have not been in the pool since friday august 18th and it is now august 30th. oh my. i am so frustrated. especially whenever i go into my bathroom and see my swimsuits hanging over the shower, completely dry, just begging for me to take them down and put them to proper use. 😊

and just for **experiments’** sake, i have strongly been considering erics mad mad idea of creating a false temp basal to off-set a 0% basal setting while prepping for my swim. (kindly refer to[the new post on “temp basals”](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/the-actual-current-amount-of-a-temp-basal/1672/) and you will see the insanity of combined minds and how far we can tempt the boundaries of modern science.)

thats all i really have to say. well, except that **i really miss the pool and swimming terribly.**
