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


good news it was all so organised.

hope results come back all on positive notes

and @dunelm
wonderful news of the 'hip op'.
best wishes for a smooth recovery.

oh and happy birthday to Mrs D
 
words must be had the the relevant authorities.
My neighbours almost laughed themselves into a serious medical condition at the very idea of we Brits "having words." Apparently we aren't especially intimidating in the big scheme of things - something to do with a deluded, bloated wind bag (pre-watershed content removed) - but feel free to come and try once this is all over.
 
@jjraak a little background reading before the big game Sunday and well into Monday. Ask the boys to go easy on you now time is catching up with you as it does with all gunslingers. Stay off the cocktails until late 4th quarter Brady winning is the romantic story. I can't warm to Mahomes but he is a great athlete. So who redefined football - Pele? Maradona? and cricket - Sobers? Tendulkar?I think Lomu redefined rugby but Itoje may be making a grab for that spot - major establishment credentials and advertisers dream.
Edit: Surely Hamilton has redefined motor racing by now?

Oh @SlimLizzy

i do hope he makes a quick recovery.

can you say more of what ails him?
MrSlim does not like it talked about, mostly tries to ignore it, apart from some lifestyle changes.
He has CKD Stage three.
Has been stable for a few years, am worried he is deteriorating.

Oh @SlimLizzy that woukd be a worry for anyone.

I see now what you mean regarding other times and why this times concerns you so much.

Forgive the clumsiness of my previous reply.

more professional help then I could ever offer has clearly been sought & readily available,


Let me just offer hopes & prayers Mr S begins making a recovery.

And the hope your suspicions are wrong .and further medical help isn't needed on this occasion.

Take care & do keep us all up to date with any improvement, IF you possibly can.

Not sure that an attempt to be kind and helpful needs forgiveness, but you have it anyway and thank you for caring enough to try.
 
Yay for getting some independence back

I hope Mr Slim feels a bit better soon - do take care of yourselves
 
good afternoon all

4.7 today

shopping trip today so out early into the cold breeze and it was surprisingly quiet today. I delivered the shopping to Mum this afternoon because mr gee had to wait in in case a delivery arrived. Then it didn't. Never mind, it's now timed for tomorrow so he's not too unhappy

Bin day was negotiated successfully and the green bin is now as clean as the green bin gets

Hope your day is treating you well

@SlimLizzy - hugs to mr slim, very worrying for you both. I hope the situation improves quickly.

@Krystyna23040 - hope the vaccination went smoothly

@gennepher - cats paw blossom, very effective a very pleasing picture and I like the way you have done the sun

@jjraak - well done, glad you are enjoying your new tastes of freedom

@dunelm - Many Happy Returns to mrs Miggins
I love your picture of the birds, a real conversation piece
and a fine tribute to a fine gentleman.

@Muddy Cyclist - La Belle Catherine is a pleasing reel isn't it but I should imagine it's complex to get in synch. ?

art bit - I bought some silicon tipped things (made for nail artists I think ) to try getting resist on more evenly, works, sort of.

Inspired by the landscape work of E.A.Verdine.

 
Good news about your mom doing well. Happy double birthdays to the duo.

Those birds have evolved very well in my opinion. Evolution gets its skates on.
 
Another good painting from yourself and experimenting with resist. Good string cheery colours, brightened up my day.

Lady Belle Catherine is proving interesting but today I spoke to the guy who will be stitching all the different instruments together. I have been having trouble keeping up when picking out the melody on my Mandolin and never manage to get to the end without making a mistake, frustrating, BUT I need not worry as he says just stop and the recording then record that bit again separately and he can correct it by piecing the correct bit in when he mixes all the parts, magic, the wonders of virtual recordings.
