I think I would be wearing plenty of clothes for the outdoor swimming pool, this time of year.

It is heated and they say it's 27C
 
What am I doing right now? I'm thinking how does lean ground beef sound with 2 cups spinach and some low sodium pasta sauce sound. Sounds pretty good right. It better be good I mean it sounds good

I'm in Canada and I swapped out the ground beef for chicken, I mean it sounds delicious but we shall see, I won't be having that till after my work out tonight but I'll post back in 4 hours. It's 4:00PM right now.

I'll be in bed by then. Hope it's good.
 
Didn't go for a swim in my grandchildrens out door paddling pool heated via boiling the kettle, down sarf here the weather has been glorious, I didn't do any gardening, but Mrs J mowed the front paddock. We had to get rid of the gardener because he didn't worship the ground I walked on. I had to get seriously suited and booted and attend a charity meeting over in Wokingham, where I kept my head down and almost behaved in a responsible manner, then sat down for a set course meal, most of which I couldn't eat and slipped out early so I could get home before the self congratulate speaches started and targets set for the next bout of fund raising. Hehehehe.

Yes I blame comprehensive education, they just don't teach the correct type of forelock tugging these days and it is very difficult to get and retain staff. I must admit we got more pupils into pentonville and parkhurst than any university. Safe blowing was a favourite and in metalwork sawing orf shot gun barrels was popular.

It was surprisingly good, 18 gram carbs / 34 gram fat / 93 gram protein. The pasta sauce was spicy red pepper and instead of ground beef used chicken breasts.
 
Morning, sitting here with a cup of tea, food shopping to do today and I would like to get out and do some gardening too, the weather forecast said bright and sunny today, so finger's crossed.
Have a fab Friday
 
Gardening done, hebe present planted in new pot, and three other flowering plants, Dianthus, planted, grass cut, a soak in the bath now with a lovely cuppa
 
At the moment just sitting and feeling very content. I went swimming in the outdoor pool 25C for the first time this year. Only 10 lengths but it's the start of the season and it was the first time I've swum since diagnosis.... I was a bit worried how real exercise would affect BG. All OK.
I actually had a slice of HiLo bread, egg and asparagus for lunch and now I'm off into the garden to do some bending, generally know as weeding. They'll probably be some digging too but hey, it's sunny.
Actually do feel full of the joys of spring
 
Well I'm wondering how I can get out of a hole I appear to have dug myself into, let me explain, I have a number of ladies in my life who are classified as girlfriends numbering 1 to 5, they all know about each other and all are friends, but nearly girlfriend number 3 is coming round tomorrow with her husband and father, which in itself is fine but Mrs J or Attila as she is known has been plotting behind my back with NGFNo3 ( nearly girlfriend number 3 ), perhaps I could escape tomorrow round to a fellow members pad swim a few million lengths to lower my blood sugars then sneak home to Mrs J when the dust has settled ? Don't all rush to answer.
 
Cold and wet here this morning so am going to stay in and do exciting things like washing up, laundry and anything else that means I don't have to go out.........
 

Sorry no pity here.......... serves you right.......self inflicted injury.........
 
Ah, the oxymoronic comprehensive education. Always thought “education otherwise” to be a reasonable idea if done properly.

You can't afford to educate the masses if you want cheap labour and retain the ability to brag about your possessions.

I have this strange urge to put a single Malteeser in my mouth and wait and see how long it will take to melt without any sucking or biting!........

But I don't have any!......

Just thought I'd share my results.

Purchased a packet today..

One regular sized Malteeser popped into the mouth.. No sucking or biting (the odd swallow allowed) and it melted entirely and was gone in exactly (timed after final swallow) 02:21.85 seconds..........

Less than two and a half minutes!.. Have to say I'm a little disappointed, thought it would half lasted longer.
