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

Good Morning and 6,4 for me today. Protein meal last night, beef stea, mushrooms, small red onion, courgette, Greek yoghurt and berries. So again higher than expected.

Cold bright day, nothing planned.

Keep safe and avoid the masses.
 
Fbg 6.8

A beautiful sunrise from my garden. I was watching it with a cuppa. Not really sure what I have recreated of it here in Procreate...

I can see a different scene now ( a fantasy scene), but I have already been playing with it for an hour, so I shall stop now.

 
Thank you @geefull
Appointment was very tiring, but went very well.
It will be a few days to recover and plot another adventure...

I love peonies, and yours is a beautiful one.
 
Brilliant plans @dunelm
My hair is covered permanently with a hat since the last haircut I attempted...it needs to grow first...

And a great little boat on your backing paper!
 
Very good. Abstract Monet - lovely colours
 
A not surprising 5.7 this morning. I was going to give myself the 'stupidest person in the world award' but in reflection perhaps it should be the 'luckiest person in the the world award '.

I was carrying too much stuff up the stairs. Lost my footing and ended up falling backwards and slamming the back of my head onto the tiled floor. A hinge from the front door cut into my scalp - from which gushed out a truly impressive amount of blood all over the hallway.

Mr K had a glass of wine earlier in the evening and his breathalyser showed he was just over the limit (it truly was Mr K and not me who drank the wine) so I ended up being transported to the Norfolk and Norwich by ambulance. Was thoroughly checked over and stitched back together and got back home at 4.30am.

Superb care from everyone who looked after me. I couldn't fault it. While I was being treated a drunken man was abusing the A&E staff in a truly horrible manner. When I left he was being escorted out by police officers.

So feel a bit battered and bruised this morning but when I looked at where I fell I feel incredibly lucky that I didn't break my neck. Mr K said that he has checked the floor and I haven't broken any tiles. That made me laugh. He was really shaken up last night so it is good we can joke about it this morning.
 
Good morning from a bright but cold Suffolk. I still struggle to accept living in Suffolk but there are worse problems. Swipey definitely showed 4.8 as an fbg this morning. The whole what and when to eat and just what combination of metrics equals could do better but tries bless him. Based on Swipey and no obvious complications I may well be there. Hugs for the higher fbg than you want @Muddy Cyclist but Wilfrid/Wilfred looks seriously Peng. @dunelm that trip with the little Ingalis' sounds perfect. Don't forget to take goodnight Johnboy with ya. Ramadan for some members. I'm not sure if the road map allows for meet ups in time for Eid but I hope so. Take care all.

Lots of hugs for both of you @Krystyna23040


 
Wow. So sorry to hear about that and hope you are ok today and perhaps able to take things easy for a while - probably not in your DNA. Great thoughtfulness of you guys to check via breathalyser.

Serious stuff, broken tiles - Glad you are OK and that Mr K can relax after you are now safely home.
 
Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen. I am wondering where today will take us all on our separate journeys through life as we know it.

Again a 6.5 this morning on that scheming meter of confusion.

Well fellow posters, painters and gamers, and me and me's hope you all are well including acrobats on stairs, take it easy please.
Now me and me's must go and write a paper on the function of quarks in hot dark matter. Is it's direction of spin relevant? Another question is how on earth did a Startrek character get involved in dark matter and does it really matter, but first I'd better make Mrs J's early morning tea.

Remember the stay's including stay away from politics if possible, well me and me's will anyway.
 

WHOA.. major hugs required

Hope you truly feel better asap
Dreadful how a moment can derail life

Also a big up to the hospital's
Personally after many years with mum n dad at A&E, I'd prosecute every low life causing disruption at hospitals
And send them the bill.!

Loving the take from both of you .
Sometimes I thinks it's the humour that's almost as important as the meds.

All Those oh so horrid "What if's" can really plague us otherwise

Take it easy
Get better soon x
 
big hugs krystyna you was so lucky xx
 
Marjorie reckons Roy was very free with the scissors this am as my hair has never been as short for years.

He is keen on John Wayne and the Wild West so I reckon he must be in Injun mode!
