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

Thanks @ianpspurs

My garden is very busy...and I had no idea pre the wildlife trail cameras...

Enjoy that lupin flour!
We await amazon delivering that and a few more goodies tomorrow. One of the freedoms from my deal with JKP. Hopefully we will be able to build the Elsie diet back better and level up my menu.
 
Is that haar coming in from the sea, soaking the remaining vegetation? There must be some sun behind it somewhere, it is so bright. Another winner.
 
Good national bin day afternoon ladies and gentlemen and those who breath, but not politicians and those who decide on what depressing items that make it into the media, blunt and to the point, now that’s enough of that.
.
Blood sugars this morning were a head scratching 4.8, causing a 15 minute calculation frenzy to establish my insulin dosage, it is time to admit I ended up guessing, my steam driven sliderule cooled down ticking nicely, I had to drink the tea in the mug for the tea bag reading, ah such is life.
.
Now I must confess me, me’s and myself got stitched big time yesterday by an expert, Mrs J, I have to admire the skill with which Mrs J did it, not like, admire.

Firstly Mrs J trimmed my beard, not a pleasant experience, Mrs J mutters about attacking my hair, but didn’t attack my hair lulling me into a false sense of security, then she drove into the grand metropolis of Reading for my plinky plonky lesson, with the promise of being picked at the usual place. Never has Brahms been played so badly perhaps I should have been Liszt.
.
Now here comes sting upon being picked up, Mrs J said we will make a minor detour on the way home, yep you guessed, the dreaded garden centre, I was deposited in the café told to buy my own koffy and be quiet or I would be walking home with sore appendages, Mrs J being of Welsh and Irish extraction is no stranger to using her fists and or feet hence I sat quietly crying into my koffy, cursing those dreaded words all those years ago. “I do”.
Stay safe all.

Yes @Annb
Thank you.
We get that coastal fog here dawn and dusk, the time between worlds, and I often 'see' J and my little dog Meg then, on their walks along the shores of Hilbre Island ...
 
https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/definition/owned Top gel that Mrs A J. Another version is she tore you a new one - a new what I wouldn't venture to opine here.
 
Thanks @ianpspurs and for steering me away from lupin flour, no body building in this house and look at those abs - oops - carbs. Pumpkin pie - no, no, no, no although I expect that my two sisters and their families over that pond will be bigging it up large and trying to smile.
 
Thank you @Annb and I usually don’t suffer much from jabs either - although I did when milling as a young whipper snapper - ouch! Ooch!

If that lupine doesn’t shine - you could try half and half with some other flour - almond maybe - or cat litter.
 
I thought you'd wolf the lupine flour down but very quietly, au pas de lupin as the fenboys say. I'm a little worried about the potential anti social side effects https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsène_Lupin

On the wildlife trail camera in my back garden, the big fox is wary of the cat, Midnight, who is often asleep on the swing, and the fox keeps checking for the whereabouts of that cat.

Meanwhile someone else is checking on the whereabouts of the foxes...

Fox & Rat (have those foxes gone)

Rained all day, so damp and cold. Put some stuff on the swig to keep Jade warmer. Cut up a long sleeved wool jumper to make leg warmers. If I crocheted them from scratch, it would be months before I finished a pair (arthritis in my fingers). Put them on. Haven't taken them off. I'm even wearing them in bed....it actually helps with the diabetic pain in my feet.

I need to cut sleeves off more jumpers....

Creative is autumn, a digital early morning painting in Procreate.
I would so like some sunshine...


Time for a cuppa!

And a nap!
