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

Nespresso machine is leaking again. Spent half an hour this morning trying to get it sorted with customer services. It didn't go well - which was annoying as I have an early start on a Monday. We have to do some tests and then report back to them.
I pointed out that these tests would have been done before they returned the machine to me last week - but they still insist I do them again.
 
Hi Ian,
In 1939 June 6th was apparently one of the hottest days of the year, according to mother.

Sometimes I wish I could time travel and see what it was like in those long lost days.

Neil just discovered that the washing machine is leaking - not flooding but a fair amount of water on the floor. I save up the white cottons and wash them on the hottest setting (expensive, but that's why I don't do it very often). That's what I did today and the machine doesn't seem to like it! We'll have to see what it's like at lower temperatures.
 
Thank you @ianpspurs.

FBG has been in the sixes for a few days . Anniversaries celebrations and meals with friends as well as a few very late dinners, after 9pm so overnight fast shorter than usual.
MrSlim has just returned from the builders merchants. He is not happy at the "wasted" day. First time spent cleaning the bbq , then hours searching for paperwork, then long queues at builders merchants. Partly my fault - i sent him back in for lettuce seeds. So its 4pm and he is only now able to start working on his current project. He bought cakes, presumably to cheer himself up and i can't say no, mille feuille, delicious, but will probably mean higher FBG tomorrow. After a few days of festivities planned on getting back to normal today. Will be tomorrow now.
I dont dare tell him those are the wrong seeds!
 
Hope JKP feels a lot better very soon. Very interesting article on ACV.
 
Your friends are so lucky that you make such wonderful food for them @Annb
 
Did very little today - trying to recover from yesterday. Did manage to get through 3 loads in the dishwasher - didn't help that Neil kept on chucking things back because they weren't washed well enough. BG kept dropping too low - not because of too much insulin, unless something is changing and I don't need so much in the afternoon. Still can't get it to come back up to a level where I can comfortably go to bed and sleep. Have to work something out soon - I'm definitely drooping.
 
Morning all.

Almost the end of our hols, but both of us agree, we have fallen in love with Lesbos.

Such a warmth to the people here & even the tourists have been super friendly.

Fbgs have circled 7+ most days I've tested, so wagon clearly needs to be got back on once home.

We travelled more in hope then expectations we might see some of the island .
But the mix of thermal springs, swimming, sunshine, eased the pain & discomfort in my leg.

We met new friends & joined them on trips out, & with their help managed to explore a good bit of the island.

So here's a pic of yesterday's 'Bay of the Day'
And a hilltop view of our little part of heaven.
(Note mount in centre of pic, church of Petra built on volcanic rock )

Best wishes for a good day, all.

You seem to be far too busy, @Annb.

Hope leaks an easy fix & you have a more relaxing day ahead.
 
How annoyingly annoying

Who needs AI when we already have such robotic slaves to dogma

Good to hear Archie back to his old self .
