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

Thanks for your good wishes @dunelm @Annb and anyone else who offers their's later. The current regime is more like a fortnightly social event with tea/coffee/biscuits/tv and sometimes cake from the lead nurse. I zone out, after the basic checks and confirming the key identity information, with noise cancelling headphones/notebook and my own LC food and coffee. With travelling it can be a 3 hr+ event cutting across my eating window - often timings are pretty fluid. So far I've had no adverse reactions thanks be to God. Some leave with a host of "goodies" for not so good reactions. @dunelm what a wonderful piece of art, initially I thought it was a photograph. I hope the pain killers work. We have no need to vote here as the local independent is unopposed.

BG at 3.15 was 12.3 - I had to have a throat pastille around 1.30 so that would be what shoved it up so far. 11.1 at 8.45. Didn't do much yesterday because my right foot was so painful - don't know why except it is more swollen than the left. Not so bad today, so I might manage to get some things done. Must try to get this house sorted out a bit otherwise I'll be ashamed when my brother and SIL come for a brief visit on 8th May. No way it will be the kind of perfection they have at their house but I might (probably a forlorn hope) have a sitting room, with useable sofas, available.
 
Really good that treatment is going well.
 
More problems with oil! I was promised a delivery by today, at the latest. There is still time, of course, but no sign yet. I tried tracking the order on the Certas energy website but it won't accept my password, nor will it accept the verification code they sent to change my password. They were quick enough to take my money 10 days ago though. I'm beginning to have a bad feeling about this. We've been eeking the oil out for the last month - using more electricity than usual as a result - and there is a miniscule amount left in the tank. Not sure what to do next. I have sent a message to the company but no reply, of course.

Wouldn't be quite so bad if the weather had warmed up here, now that we are at the end of April, but it hasn't really. Not snowing, but there was hail earlier.
 
It seems to be getting more and more and more and more difficult to communicate with companies, especially those companies who supply energy resources. I hope that they do turn up for you today.
 
Very effective with the colour, shading, and clouds in...

I hope your walk isn't too cold @dunelm lm
 
Hope you had a lovely walk. I really do love your painting.
 
I do hope that your oil does arrive today. A bit worrying that they haven't replied to your message.
 
Oh dear @Annb

The weather is icy cold here too...

I hope that oil materialises asap.

I am late in posting this morning.
I had to go out first.
Icy cold and windy here.
So cold...

Nighttime wildlife video.
The fox hung around all night from dusk to dawn!


Creative is lighthouse #40

I am ready for my afternoon nap...
Yawning my head off here.
The black living fur blanket Midnight is asleep on my legs.
I still have half a flask of hot tea, so my longing for a coffee will have to wait...

Have your best day...

ZZZZZzzzzzzzz....

 
Another brilliant lighthouse.
 
Smashing lighthouse, I like the sky
