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

At the risk of starting another theme on this thread, Mrs J and me and me's discussed what to have for Christmas lunch, neither of us are keen on turkey

I dislike turkey so my Xmas choice has always been beef, except for 1985 when I was served nut roast by a vegetarian girlfriend. Short term relationship, obviously
 
5.3 this morning. Aldi shopping done.

Archie always does the toilet thingy on his dog walks. Because he is resting his paw no dog walks and no ***ing. Am waiting for a call back from the vet as l would like to give him some psyllium husks but just need to check it won't interfere with the antibiotics. I don't think it will but thought I ought to check it out.

Breakfast time a year ago after an hour in the gym. Preparing for a hard day's sightseeing and sunbathing. I didn't drink the orange juice. Today I'm in the dystopian land of Borisonia when I should be there again.

Yes absolutely Krystyna you'd be surprised how some 'healthy' supplements can affect their medication or condition
Yes, it is surprising how some 'healthy' supplements can affect their medication. and I definitely can't take the chance that it will affect the antibiotics.

Hope you do get a chance to relax today. You work so hard and such long hours,
 
I had one of the first BBC micros and used to play Aviator and Revs but I made my own joystick.

I must admit I am enjoying the no travel part of teaching on Zoom. It is lovely to walk down the stairs after a class and make a cup of coffee. Good luck with trying out the new Priti Patel defence defence today.
 
me and tommy have roast lamb ,dont like turkey,or maybe a nice piece of beef
 

I like both of these @dunelm
The top one has great perspective receding into the distance.
The bottom a brilliant splatter abstract.
 
Fbg in the early hours 6.9

I am late this morning because the online order site for my prescription at my doctorless surgery, was not working properly. It had me both logged in and logged out at the same time, and wouldn't let me access the prescription order page. I wasted an hour...finally I gave up.

And so I had to go out to the surgery to order. Got shouted at for not using the telephone to order. I waved my badges which say I have hearing loss, cochlear implant, I can't lipread you with a mask on, etc...

I now go into complete stupid mode when I get shouted at by the medical personnel/profession. A very good strategy. Actually I now have fun with stupid mode, and do mime with my hands and pieces of paper with my writing on. I won't speak if someone shouts at me like that now (because they think speaking equals that I can hear, and I am making my deafness up).

It completely flummoxes the person shouting at me and puts them at a total disadvantage.

Anyway finally, when she got the message, she wrote down my meds will be waiting for me on Tuesday...

That was really satisfying this morning.......

I am tired now and need a nap. Then I will think about a painting....
 
Don't know who her ladyship is but avoid her at all costs , its that sort of attitude that helps spread this virus ....no one is totally immune from getting it.
 
Well if it's good enough for the current Home Secretary then it's good enough for all
Yes - I absolutely agree. It looks like we could use that strategy to get away with all our wrongdoings. Not that I am admitting to any wrongdoings of course.
 
A brilliant strategy @gennepher and good that you have fun with it and it lifts your mood, especially when the medical profession shouting at you would definitely drag your mood down.
 
Unfortunately she is my landlady and my tenancy involves chauffeuring and gardening so it’s a bit tricky.
Maybe when you are next doing some gardening dig her a big hole 6ft by 6ft should do it
