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

Hello from a dark, wet and dreary but heavily militarised Breckland. My first reading since Sept 2 was 4.4 but my team will ensure only legal mmol/s are counted just so I win. @RFSMarch you sound motivated enough to reach that <10 stone goal. @lindisfel the scan or no scan call requires the judgement of Solomon, I hope your eldest helps you make a decision with which you are happy. @gennepher what a thoughtful and caring analysis of where we are. IMHO we have needed change for at least 2 decades and buried our heads in the sand post 2008. I can't see past Boomers 1 and 2 as the reason we are in this mess. UK and parts of USA seem to be in the grip of angry old white men trying desperately to continue living in the 50s - possibly 1850s. It may take a decade for the next big idea which is why I eat my salad and avo

5.3 this morning. Definitely not going out this morning as the rain is torrential. Have decided instead to have a lazy day and then walk the dogs around our little market town this afternoon when the rain stops. We have to buy more cream and there was something I wanted to buy in Boots - hopefully l will remember what it was by this afternoon.

Yesterday taught for 5 1/2 hours on Zoom with only a 10 minute break. I couldn't believe just how tired I felt afterwards.

The psyllium, flaxseed, hemp seed and inulin combo is working like magic.
 
That is one complete mess.

I do realise that a lot of important things are being affected etc, etc

Well said, it is this attitude of yours that allows you to get on with life irrespective of your disabilities. WELL DONE.
 
Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen.

A 5.6 on the meter of mystery and misbehaving.

I know today will be busy, but I know not what me and me's will be doing.

Make the most of today fellow posters and painters, perhaps catching up on those films etc.
 
Thank you @geefull - I am well embedded now into splattergate. Well done the medics for a smooth jab fest, good prior planning. Lovely dandelions and nice touch with that single seed.

Thank you @ianpspurs
But I would venture to suggest that even before that date change was needed.

(I've done something wrong with the above initial quote!!!!!)
 
Good morning everyone from a mixed bag of a morning in the dark and dangerous north

The late o’clock outpouring of the wonder wheel splurged out a 5.8 this am - serves me right for tarrying.

Mrs Miggins has already left the house - a socially distanced walk with the eldest grandchildren has been arranged.
Diwali must be a bit strange this year. Talking to friends in London, they seem to be holding mass zoom eating fests but it won’t be the same. Just hope that everyone will be doing their bit re staying at home. Saal Mubarak, Happy New Year.
What did I do yesterday art wise - a bit of bamboo on regular unsized rice paper and a splodge tree on some yellow rice paper that seems awfully fragile, especially when very wet.
Hope everyone has a pleasant Sunday, koffy is on.



 
Ditto the rain here too
 
I seem to be on a yo yo ( scale ) of 7's and 8's with a 7.3 this morning
