What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

Our eldest daughter is progressing well and after just over a week is beginning to put the worst of the Covid 19 behind her.
She spoke to us for a few minutes on the telephone last night and is somewhat improved on that today, so we have high hopes of a good recovery.
She has no metabolic issues and has looked after herself, so her recovery should be straight forward.
D.
 
Thank goodness that is great news.
 
That is really good news.
 
Great news.

Some very fine pencil sketching from you, impressive lines to build depth. Your wave I see a powerful watercolour, captured the movement, magnitude and colour. Hill and Cliffs top notch as usual.

Thanks for the appreciation of my Autumn Beech Tree painting.

Interesting information regarding Covid Risk Form on you tube, will search and see where I figure.
 

Thank you @geefull
They are incredibly vibrant those Art Kure pens.

I would like to try my white powder ink on dark water, and it twinkles like you say.
White gel pen works well for me too. But for waves, I have used those white ink correction pens, like Tip-Ex. It is a thicker line than the white gel pen, not as controllable but can work well for wild waves. But not every one of those different makes of those white correction pens work well. I did find a cheap one from the pound shop, their own brand, (many moons ago in pre-Covid days when shopping for non essential goods was legal in Wales), and it worked brilliantly for waves and many white details.

Your pencil sketches are absolutely brilliant. I wouldn't have the patience for that kind of beautiful precise detail.

Your wave is magnificent. So powerful.
 
Brilliant.
I am glad.
 
Fbg 6.2

I am up early. Or rather I didn't sleep well. I never do when I have to go out. It is collecting my medicines today. And while I am at it, the Polish shop and Tesco Express are next door so I will pick up some essential foodstuffs that Wales allows. And the Funeral parlour is next door to that, so any sweets the Polish shop kindly give me as a gift for shopping there will go straight to the charity boxes of food just inside the Funeral Parlour door.

And I shall see if I can do a wee little drive before I come back home...

I don't like the painting I have done for today, so I will try and rescue it when I come back...

Oh, I am writing a few postcards and letters to pop in the postbox this morning. I got this cartoon a week ago from a friend in Wyoming. I am very slow. I just didn't get the cartoon until this morning...

 
Rats - spoke too soon about stable sensors ... Registered LO all night so I think this one has gone kaput so have the stress of calling Abbot and dealing with their customer “service” reps.

Place your bets at how long they make me keep it on before they agree to send out a replacement?
 
Thank you @geefull - It’s a very loose style that I like for landscapes.
A couple of good pencil sketches from you today, is one a water droplet? A great wave - I like the way that you have it lifting, up into a curve, anticipation of the final surge and then pounding down onto the rocks.
 
Good Morning and 6.2 for me today.

A hint of a sunrise here today. I should be going to MILs as we discovered one of the sheds hidden at the bottom of the garden is damaged, roof fell in, because two sheds were listed in the sale information I have to go and replace roof. I am thinking about procrastinating until Saturday we shall see what Mrs MC thinks. I would rather go a Muddy Cycle ride as it's looking dry.

Violin restrung, now to annoy the neighbours.

Savor Autumns beauty, i. the words of that well known song, 'Leaves are falling, just like embers, in colours red and gold they set us on fire, just like moonbeams in our eyes.'. Keep Safe.
 
Great news.
 
How annoying having to fix the shed - still, annoying the neighbours will balance the day.
 
Good morning everyone from another exciting International Bin Day Celebration in the dark and dangerous north

The wonder wheel of a home made chicken chinese chow job with cauliflower rice came in at 5.1 this am

Well after lots of prodding, poking and the sucking of teeth, the fridge freezer has now been officially condemned - a replacement will be fitted this afternoon and the broken one taken away.


Another bit of landscape today - just ink onto rice paper. Have the very best day that you can for a Wednesday. I shall make some koffy and see what happens.

 
That's an impressively full landscape, lots of depth and wonderful trees and rocks, a fine piece of art.

Helicopter grounded today?
