Hope your hospital visit goes . @ianpspursMorning all on Candlemas which has traditionally been a medium term weather forecasting day. No fbg today as I'm off for MRI (s) and bloods in Bury St Edmunds to investigate a new known unknown. Mackerel salad and gym yesterday but just the mackerel salad today. Have a wonderful day but maybe hope fore some cloud and rain. January was pretty dry and warm in this part of East Anglia. Laters, Dudes.
ThanksWonderful cat, you have really captured the stare. I love the story telling. Word seems to be spreading far and wide about “Gennepher’s Cat Diner”
Yes, perfect for a wander in this painting @dunelmGood morning everyone from a bit of an overcloud start here in the dark and dangerous north
Mrs Miggins has surprised me by getting up and out of the house by 0830 - something about an early appointment. We had the girl in the bubble yesterday - poor little worm has a kode in her doze and couldn’t go to nursery. So, off into town for breakfast - she likes eating my toast so I have to remember not to say, “without the toast”. A hunt for some ‘Nduja resulted in a fail but I did get some nice looking rillettes and a bargain end piece of some very spicy finocchiona salami, some of which I cut into very small pieces and added to my bread mix together with some chopped up sun dried tomatoes. ‘Nduja will be back in stock in the deli next week - smashing knifed in big heaps onto some toasted bread or to spice up a thick soup. I like it in an omelette.
Art today - based upon another Lakeland scene. I was trying to tease some tree branches along lines of water but a bit too much water ended up on the paper. Oh well! Have a wonderful Mittwoch if you can. I am now going to make koffy.

A splendid pic, @gennepherFbg 6.3
Yesterday morning I was still in bed doing my morning computer stuff when several cats, independently of each other came to visit and view this poor human locked inside behind glass. They seem to think I am a prisoner in a cage. I leave dried cat biscuits out all the time. The stray cats, hedgehogs, fox, the blackbirds and robin and sparrows all partake of the dried biscuits. I have used up all Popeye's wet food, and I won't be buying more of that because of health hazard (maggots and flies) in hot weather, but I am happy to give the animals that visit my garden dried cat biscuits. There is always a bucket of water for the birds and cats etc, and upside down dustbin lids at various points in the garden for birdbaths, and any smaller creature to drink water. All these gather rain water. I never fill them with tap water.
I have always wanted a ginger cat all my life, but mostly ended up with black, black&white, tabby, tortoiseshell, or white coloured cats. But never a ginger, nor a calico coloured cat. A calico cat visits for the food every morning now (I think it is a stray, but it is still scared of me and any sudden movement). Two ginger cats have been visiting for maybe a couple of years now, one is definitely a manky stray.
But yesterday morning this ginger beauty visited me. My iPastel/Procreate artwork for today. It was a massive cat (looked pretty much near 30 lbs in weight), much bigger and heavier than my little Hearing Dog for the Deaf was. It came up ate a few cat biscuits, and then came to my window. And looked at me pityingly. "You poor human locked behind that glass, and I have my freedom."
I took some photos from my bed. But I noticed how chunky its legs were, and the front paws both had a 'thumb' on them.
It wasn't until it had gone that I realised that collar on it must have been some expensive designer collar, and there was a large tag on it. I know nothing about designer collars, or even designer cats. My knowledge only extends to mongrel (is that what you call them?) cats.
I sent the photos to a friend, and she sent back, "That's a Norwegian Forest Cat, or a Maine Coon. That would cost a £1,000 or more. It shouldn't be out. It might be lost." she said. Maine Coon, we decided on.
This took me 3 hours to do between the two apps. I was doing it half way though the night, when I awoke for the bathroom, and when I went back to sleep I am dreaming of lions and big cats!!!
What I am doing though is checking on facebook, and online sites for anyone reporting a missing fluffy orange cat. It could well have accidentally got out. Also it might have just gone back home again when it discovered only cheap cat biscuits at "gennepher's Cat Diner". I hope it has.

Best wishes for a good result.Morning all on Candlemas which has traditionally been a medium term weather forecasting day. No fbg today as I'm off for MRI (s) and bloods in Bury St Edmunds to investigate a new known unknown. Mackerel salad and gym yesterday but just the mackerel salad today. Have a wonderful day but maybe hope fore some cloud and rain. January was pretty dry and warm in this part of East Anglia. Laters, Dudes.
A great result, DerekThought I had let my blood sugar slide but hba1c still 45 last week. Couldn't get it better than 44 on keto in the past. My diabetes is due to Conn's syndrome and not due to poor eating or lack of dietary correction.

Good afternoon. I had my CT scan results last week. (I asked for a copy which I had to collect from the surgery). As well as some things I already knew about I have gall stones and a thin walled gall bladder, scattered areas of diverticulosis, fatty liver and a nodule on my left adrenal gland. Apart from that, raised cholesterol and blood sugars and ongoing pain I am hunkidory! LOL I have an appointment with a different GP next week to discuss. Hope all goes well for you.Thank you @dogslife. Have you heard anymore about your ongoing issues?
Good luck for next week.KGood afternoon. I had my CT scan results last week. (I asked for a copy which I had to collect from the surgery).
