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

good afternoon all

4.4 this morning

shopping day in the rain again, then we had to take the shopping straight over to mum's because she wanted ice-cream rather her than me
mr gee didn't sleep too well and has had a bit of a stiff neck for the last couple of days, I tentatively suggested it could be the flu jab, which suggestion met with disdain Oh well, at least my arm is less stiff, sore and hot today

Hope your day is treating you kindly

@Alien Aspie - last garden bin collection of the season at mum's this week too.

@ianpspurs - hope everyone feels better soon

@dunelm - nice tree sketch, I like the delicate foliage

@Jen6 - hugs and I hope your visit to the neurologist goes well

@gennepher - cheery poppies thank you a pleasing blast of colour on a grey day.

@Muddy Cyclist - hope your results come back soon, it's a shame you are confined on a good day but 'better safe than sorry' as my gran used to say

art bit -

pen and watercolour wash, based on a photo I saw on the net, I couldn't resist the colour

 
Stunning - and your art is just as pleasing on the eye.
 
I feel I should give you a hug but decided on funny as your imagery had me chuckling, wellies and PJ's may I ask?
 
As promised a more abstract watercolour from me, not finished, not sure where it's going, I had Emerald Greens and Deep Purples in mind after watching the sun through our Holly Hedge, but now I'm not sure. Yes, I did use some cling film. Will finish Thursday if I get inspired but at the moment a complete blank.

A4 about 5 minutes painting, one minute scrunching cling film.....

Lovely painting of what looks like a bolete mushroom - they turn blue if bruised. Good to hear that your arm is on the mend - stiff neck - bag of frozen peas - man up.
 
Looks good just as is. Like the cling film technique -looks like a sunburst through the clouds

Looks like an inter-dimensional portal to me.

Just had a video chat with Adrian he is not particularly happy. A positive test even though week positive is a jolt having to isolate coupled with being in a foreign country far from home, and not feeling 100 percent well is playing on his mind a bit though he says he is being well taken care of he feels a loss of control over his situation. And is feeling a little on his own at the moment.

So for those who are not adverse to the idea he could do with your prayers or good thoughts.
 
Covid test results are in 28 hour turn around that ain't bad in my book.

Oh yes the result is.......

BIG PAUSE............


Negative!

We're free, well as free as is allowed.

Don't you just hate this new let's keep you in suspense announcements competitions seem to have these days?
 
Very pleased for you@ Muddy Cyclist.
 

That is so brilliant @Muddy Cyclist

 

Thank you @geefull

That is a great pencil sketch. You are good with perspective.

Your painting with sea and rolling hills and clouds is excellent as always. Always calming...
