Anyone heard from @Cumberland recently? Hope he’s ok.
Morning, not much to report, except I think I discovered yesterday that a sudden drop in atmospheric pressure makes me tired. I never realised that before, it might explain a few occasions when I have felt strangely tired, and couldn't explain it. It's 1003mb today, yesterday it was 996mb, or something.
This is very sad, I'm going to become interested in it.
Last year, because I know a couple of people there, I was watching Hurricane Irma, in Florida, and following a stormchaser on twitter, and just as it hit key west, he tweeted the low atmospheric pressure, and then nothing for two days.
Anyway, blood sugar is ok, it ran a little higher yesterday, but I don't know if there is any connection, I'll see what happens today.
Hope all goes well for you today @Robinredbreast .....sounds like you are going prepared which is probably more than most....Good morning and a Happy Monday to you all. Awoke to 7.6 and off to my 'work coach' interview at the Job Center this morning, I have piles of documents to take, ID and probably a lot more than asked for and feeling a little anxious, but a friend is coming with me.
I had gammon last night, but it tasted too salty and I only ate half of my meal. I think I will stick to soup tonight![]()

Being vegaquarian, I am not 100% familiar with the Kiev delicacy. However, I wonder if the filling is fatty which delayed the carb to BG conversion. So you were low pre Jaffa cakes but still had some jacket spud carbs in your body to convert?

Hi there - If you like storm watching, have you looked at It's all rather fab, and we'veused it for years to track the huricainne seasons, with interest. https://www.windy.com/?15.917,-61.845,7,m:d7Gaer4
You can set it up for anywhere, and have a list of favourites, plus you can advance the predictions and drag the visuals.
Many a tense hour can be had on there.
I'll have a look, it was never my intention to become interested in hurricanes, but having accidentally watched one, I realised they are quite fascinating.
I know what you mean, but sadly, fascinating isn't the usually used term when it's coming your way. If you're looking for actual storm footage, YouTube is a decent place to go.
Bearing in mind some of these boats will be well over 20 tons, it shows the power of mother nature.
Experiencing weather is an inevitable consequence of living on this planet, you just can't avoid it.
Of course it is, but unless you have been present during a hurricane, or had assets damages or destroyed by one, it is incomprehensible.
I put to it down to being probed![]()
Interesting "probing" technique that sucks glucose from your blood.
If we could work out how they do it, we might be able to use it to lower our BG after a mega pizza.
COUGHS......Really?
Love the ability to edit![]()
Some may call me a pescatarian but I prefer vegaquarian as someone who eats veggies and fish.
And, as I often say when I am asked my dietary preferences, "I also eat chocolate".
