Fasting Blood Sugar this morning + yesterday's food AND physical activity

200 push-ups seriously impressed
 
Push-ups are my go to when I'm feeling a bit like not working out ... once I've done 200 I feel awake and can carry on with the rest.
Waiting for the weather to get a little better so I can take my heavy bag outside .. don't want to use it indoors at the mo as neighbours have a new baby.

Have a great Friday.
Hope the weekend is looking good!

Oh my! 4!!
A couple might have gotten in and started a family. Charlie might have invited them in.
We had a couple of cats (Chand and Tara) a few years back. They'd bring in live animals to "play with" for their amusement. Brought in mice that started a family somewhere. Then they spent an enjoyable week murdering them all and displaying their corpses. Expecting praise!
Having a good weekend here .. hope you are too
