Terrible news about the Munich shootings, 6 dead and many injured. My sympathies go out to the families. It's very sad news.

 

[eddie1968]

Has everyone had a good day then ? I know I'm ill but I'm mobile and quite happy with that. Hate being bed-bound.

 

[eddie1968]

Im wishing wonderful things on you @eddie1968 . I know you are a hard worker like @eldergarth and stress must be reduced to support your condition. If I win the lottery I'll pay for you both to have plenty of massagers. im sure they will relieve a bit tension. Maybe they should be free on the nhs?

You spend all your winnings on gadgets which I know you love ! Thanks for the cut and I'll hold you to that lol....nah I am comfy and don't want for much @ickihun.

 

[maureen5752]

Sending this big hug to @maureen5752 and hope you start to feel better soon. Just make sure you keep hydrated in this hot weather. And so as your not left out a hug for @Cumberland too. And another hug to @ickihun as well
Anybody else want one???

Thanks Liam X. Sounds more like we should all be sending you hugssssss. You've been having it rough lately. Hope you get well very soon. ((((Hugsssss))))

 

[maureen5752]

@maureen5752 you too and @Cumberland. I've already sent my concerns to @13lizanne and @eddie1968 so hope things improve.
Sorry of not on here much as kids need me more. Sorry.
I'll pop in from time to time.
Kind regards Vicky

Take care of yourself & family, wish you well

I just wanted to send hugs to everyone who needs one - @13lizanne, @ickihun, @liam1955, @maureen5752, @eddie1968, @tina_marie and of course her lovely hubby @eldergarth. Sorry if I missed anyone out!

Even though I don't post on here as often as I used to I appreciate the support each and every one of you give, no matter what you're dealing with

I cooked pasta bolagnese laast night with 2 finely chopped onions, 2 cloves of garlic, 8 oz of minced beef, 1/2 a can of chopped tomatoes, thyme, 8 oz of pasta twists (tricolore fusilli). today I@m making Jamaican stew curry chicken and rice.

This morning my fasting blood glucose was 5.8 mmol.

Take care, my lovely friends, and I'm sorry a few of you have been feeling poorly. Get well soon and much love and hugs and best wishes to you from Stockwell in South London on PC 1 at Tate South Lambeth Public Library where I am operating this account.

Good morning Johnny, that's an excellent fbg. Have you tried making courgetti? I used to love pasta but it sent my blood glucose too high so I have courgetti instead. It's much better for me and doesn't affect my BG. I use a hand held spiralizer from Lakeland or you can use a julienne peeler just as effectively. Sending you hugs too

Yup have a spiralizer do courgetti quite often though one of the first things I did when cleaning the blade was take a slice off the end of my finger so am extra careful with it now.

I can see me getting into the home preserving hobby well. Apart from the initial outlay for 6 big (2.5 litre) rubber seal clip lock jars and buying 4 jars of pickling vinegar (1.35 each from Asda) which is diluted in most pickling recipes I am looking forward to try other stuff, even meat. I want to eat as little processed and tinned stuff from now on and make everything more healthy. I am not a big boiled egg eater but love pickled eggs. I think I will save money in the long run and be healthier too. I am quite a hands-on person, love learning new stuff that's practical and especially healthy and money saving. I've lost count on how many hobbies I've got from art to jewelry making, electronics to metal detecting, local history to reading everything and will read the back of a shampoo bottle for facts lmao. I might even get into the local drama scene lol..Eddie the drama king lmao.

For pickled onions and vegetables I often use the huge pickling vinegar jars. Only downside is they don't keep as long as a jar with a seal but still keep for a good while.

Need company?

That sounds like a great plan - just wish I had a garden ....

 

[eddie1968]

Hi. FBG 6.8 mmol/l. Improving and slept like a log last night. My inhaler was a godsend.

 

[eddie1968]

Good news...I ain't got the trotts so far lol. I seem to tolerate Amoxycillin 500mg better than most antibiotics. Hopefully no thrush after this 10 day course and my GP gave me Nystan Oral Solution and Canesten HC Cream as a precaution. My appetite has improved too. The Ventolin is great and stopped me awakening during my sleep last night. I feel fully refreshed now. Still monitoring basics daily like BGs 6 times daily (usually 4), BP twice a day, Body temperature three times a day.

MEMO to @ickihun:

Stick lottery tickets on tonight.

No BBQ here today as back yard is strewn with parts of grandson's motor bike that he has stripped down.
