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

Greetings, seasonal or just ordinary. 4.4 on Swipey at 5.45 am. Of the two I trust the time. I may have been wandering into a laddish vein of late so rein yourself in mate. Congratulations on the MOT @geefull, the walk and art @Muddy Cyclist , the coffee and whisky @dunelm, healing slowly @jjraak, the lion @gennepher . Turkey collection and trying to give a 90.9 yo MIL a safe Christmas whilst protecting one and all today - 1 yo granddaughter with ear infection also here today. All tier 2 and as COVID aware as we can be . Cognitive dissonance - very aware this isn't yet the Glorious Age to come but December is a very difficult month for MIL - daughter and brother died, widowed 40+ yrs so isolation not a good option.
Update: Tier 4 from Boxing Day - apparently COVID will isolate for 2 days

Hi all,
Have an excellent day and stay safe.

Saw the doctor yesterday, most of our doctors are lady doctors not like yesteryear when it was a rarity! My eldest laughs at me because like me, she has a good memory and remembers when she was young and I thought it something for an unregenerated male, like me, to see a female dentist.
Anyway the doctor who was very thorough and excellent wants me to get some Xrays, physio, and bloods done... bloods this am.
The physio and Xrays will have to wait until this wave subsides. I intend to do my own physio with step ups on a 9" step behind the house.
Oh and I have my first Covid vaccination at 13.30. Eldest as a gp, had her's yesterday down in Merseyside although she's had covid, as have half her fellow medics.
They are out in the thick of it and can't run away.
D.

Gave a like as that was a rational well balanced post but pondered a hug as x-rays, bloods and physio aren't for finger ache. Good news on vaccination. 90.99 yo MIL has heard nothing. Take care and best wishes to you and The Duchess.
 
5.6 this morning. We overslept so I think DP kicked in a bit.

A really muddy dog walk this morning. Everywhere is so waterlogged. This morning will do some reading and a game of Suduko and hopefully will be motivated to do some admin this afternoon.
 
That list of electronic prodding and the blood letting is a bit poo but good luck with the home made physio - do it Army style - check pulse, 1 minute step ups - then check pulse and time recovery - spectators at a safe distance and tickets on sale by the front gate.
Good news ref the vaccine - and yes, all staff in hospitals and surgeries are having a tough time.
 
Great Christmas Drawing works well on the gold flecks, some nice lines you have put down, a fine piece of art.

Re music.. I see the like of hats runs in your family.
