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

Thanks @ianpspurs. Hope that JKP remembers where the doctor will be located for the brief visit and hope that they move that metal framed chair out of the way when you jump on the magnet.
 
Beautiful autumnal art. love the tree.
 
Fbg 6.6

This is the badger I call Kissy Kissy because it is always trying nose to nose contact with my cat. And this is Foxy Loxy, the friendly fox who often tries the same nose to nose contact with my cat.
In this clip both Foxy Loxy and Kissy Kissy were next to each other rooting in the ground. The wildlife camera caught these two several times that night together rooting in the ground.



Creative today is another Autumn digital painting. The sunset last night was a golden glow, so I used it for this. It can be sunset or sunrise, whatever rocks your boat today.

Have a good day.

Time for a cuppa.

 
Good morning everyone from day one of the latest edition of The Whacky Races. Put on your pumpkin flavoured lip balm, sit back and relax, this three horse race will be as quick as your weekly bin lorry. Line dancing yesterday - stand back, nothing to see here but useful to indulge in if the queue to the correct door gets a bit rowdy. Best bit of the day (careful!) was an hour on the subject of Pain Medication given by the pharmacist from our local hospital. Today is feet up, relax and be entertained by The Girl In The Bubble. I wonder if we can get swan flavoured ice cream? Art bit - just a touch of detail, more later. Hope your Friday is good to you. My Koffy mug is now empty.


 
Beautiful creative. I am getting to the edge of the forest just as the sun begins to set on another wonderful day. Video not loading.
 
The drawing looked different yesterday without the added detail. Yesterday, my eyes saw this as a doorway...not a window...

Have a good day @dunelm
 
6.3 this morning.
Had such a busy non stop day yesterday that by the time I was due to leave for Norwich to teach classes I was absolutely shattered. Mr K very kindly drove me into Norwich and then picked me up at the end of the evening. I really appreciated the chance to close my eyes in the car and relax. Of course, this is much safer when someone else is driving.
 
Good morning on Apple Day '22. We have two patio pot trees here unlike the small orchard back home so no cider making anymore and no chickens to indulge but apples there are. Misty start here but mild enough for no heating. Yesterday's scan was swiftly followed by 3 tubes of blood. As at 12.05 yesterday serum blood glucose was 4.9 - meh but mitigating circumstances? @gennepher what wonderful autumnal colours in that creative. Thank you. @dunelm they moved the metal chair but as it was in a mobile unit there were some very steep steps up to the door on which one had to knock (the door) and wait - in heavy rain at the time. On leaving, one was escorted to the platform lift which the nurse operated. Presumably those unable to manage the stairs would have used that platform both ways. Thanks for the slow reveal artwork which is starting to be a daily highlight - when there is no leadership contest. Have a song.

Whoops, overslept 8:28am when I woke up, my plans for this Morening ( all ) are now in tatters and shreds, ahem a bit like a certain political party. Now must dash, sorry but I shall try and catch up on todays posts later.
A 6.3 on that meter.
Stay safe all
 
Thanks and thanks for the song and words @ianpspurs
 
Just received notification from Scottish Power that they are paying money into my account as per the govenment scheme to support energy costs. On the government website it has details of what personal data is collected on people receiving the money which states:

"Personal data is information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual and only includes information relating to natural persons who:
  • can be identified or who are identifiable, directly from the information in question
  • who can be indirectly identified from that information in combination with other information."
OK - no problem with that but what is a "natural person"? It could be said that I am quite unnatural, so should I be receiving this money? (I'm not about to send it back, by the way.)
 

Any the wiser?
Nope, me neither...

Try this one...

 
Right then. I know that legal terms can be confusing, but this one is just plain silly. Anyway, I can keep the money when it arrives in my bank account - being au naturel, as it were.
