Not that simple, not much night shifts there only hospitals & you have the 5 daily prayers at certain times, you can do a two in one at one of prays, imagine when the water & electric keeps going off for hours, norm in Iran even now, I had only one hour of water occasionally during the war, pardon me but did I stink some times!!!! You had to quick fill containers up to save some water! Stories I could tell, rats were as big as dogs, I must have been nuts then

Good Afternoon, my lovely friends on Friday 10th June 2016 at 12:54 pm,

I went out for a full English breakfast this morning with my best friend Lee and we had a chat and a rollie together outside on the street tables. I am at the library now cuz I still have no wifi in my flat till my appointee arranges to pay the current bill in installments.My FBG this morning at 6:41 am was 6.5 mmol. I feel very perky and well-spirited but missing the wifi in my flat. I dug my best friends mums garden over yesterday morning and set up her mobile shes just received from a friend for her and gave her some lessons on how 2 send texts and make calls and put phone numbers into the contacts.

Have a lovely day, my good friends.

Much love,

Johnny Baker

I'm doing ok still no change with Ron. He's in bed now as he gets very tired . Still waiting on appointments.
 
When are you doing your fasting blood test @tina_marie ?
How are you feeling? Is scatica easing?
You're doing a brilliant job of looking after Ron. He must feel enormously relieved you have his back.
Is his painkillers working?

Morning, peeps! And a very grey and soggy morning it is in South Glos today, too. It absolutely poured down yesterday afternoon and last night. Still at least it's cooler, the garden's enjoying all the rain, and the birdsong is deafening this morning, so I suppose that means they're enjoying it too.
I'm still lurking under the duvet at the moment - just doing FBG (6 this morning - don't know how that happened, I was 4.8 when I went to bed!) and I thought I'd say hello to everyone before the day gets started.
I'd better get my **** in the shower now though - my son and his family are arriving from Nottingham in a few hours, so it's going to be another weekend knee-deep in dogs and toddlers! :)
Have a good one everyone ( hope your leg feels better soon @liam1955)
Hugs x
