Me, me’s and myself most certainly will by showing her your post.

Tell Mrs AJ this is brilliant. I would give this a home on my bedroom wall at the end of my bed, for it to be the first (positive uplifting) thing I see when I wake up. I am not surprised it has found a home already...
@alf_Josiah please tell Mrs J I love it.
Slept through to 5.30 this morning (got to bed about 1.15). BG at that point was 10.9 (finger prick - the Libre had run out). The garden has taken a bit of a battering from the wind, but it's not very wet here at the moment. Still too windy for the ferries to sail. Of course, the wind alone wouldn't be much of a problem, although our ferries do tend to have pretty high windage. It's the swell and the wave heights that stop the ferries. The Minch isn't the calmest stretch of water, especially in a wind either north easterly or south westerly.
Very nice painting Alf from Mrs J.Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those that turned cartwheels across the floor.
Blood sugars this morning were 6.9
Hopefully I will be attaching Mrs J’s latest paint by numbers creation, it was finished yesterday and has now found a new home, a close friend of Mrs J’s is now the proud owner.
If me, me’s and myself are lucky I will taken to supervise the weekly shop, with possibility of being banished to the koffy shop, but who knows, Mrs J does, worryingly Mrs J is quiet.
It might be prudent to keep my head down, but where’s the fun in that.

Apparently some local flooring in areas not in flood warning areas.Fbg 6.6
Well my plans are scuppered this morning.
Wellies and Noah's ark are needed.
I thought the worst of this storm was not going to hit us, so the weather forecasters said yesterday.
I have a 4 inch padding pool round my bungalow this morning, But no worries, once it gets to just under my door sills, it runs off down the hill because I am the highest thing around here. But it means the steep hill, the rat run at the end of my road will be a torrent of a river, and the rat run people never take that into consideration when scooting down at 40 (in a 20). So there will be a few meetings with parked cars, lampposts, telegraph poles, and walls all getting on with life minding their own business.
Last night in the early hours there were 2 stray cats sheltering from the rain. Cat number 1 was in Midnight's comfy kitchen chair, cat number 2 was relegated to the comfy cat bed which is under the kitchen chair, and he was growling and objecting....I left them to slug it out. Midnight wanted to make his voice heard, so I had to push him unceremoniously, along the wooden floors into another room.
This morning, only stray number 1 remained. He did have the vantage point.
Midnight has been viewing the cat litter tray with disdain. He I'll only use it under duress, he prefers the leaves in my garden....he is now waiting for the rain to abate....he says he cannot swim...
If the rain doesn't abate, I'll find some stepping stones...

I love pork and obviously the loins are wonderful.Mr K bought pork loins from Aldi. He loves pork loins but I don't. I would have preferred sirloin steak. Luckily he doesn't buy the pork very often.
We eat lean pork banged flat with a rolling pin and coated with a mix of beaten egg and grated mature cheddar and fried in olive oil.I love pork and obviously the loins are wonderful.
The boss has spoken!Afternoon all
Mrs J has instructed me, me’s and myself to thank you all on her behalf for your kind comments on her latest art work.
When the king of Babylon was at the fork in the road he considered very carefully if he should take Jerusalem.Went to sleep in chair at c.2330 and awoke at 1500 talkative by 1530 the trees are waving their arms about and the Ash trees lost all their leaves today. The one in the back garden is a big tree now.
It has not been very wet ,here just very windy.
I should have done a lot more work today but runes were wrong!

All of them, will definitely end up in the bad place, regardless of what their beliefs say!When the king of Babylon was at the fork in the road he considered very carefully if he should take Jerusalem.
I just hope Iran and Syria are more careful today, we don't want a world war.
Nebuchadnezzar looked at his runes, he Shook the arrows, asked of the Teraphim and cut open the liver before he decided to go down the fork to Jerusalem.
How was it stopping the Gabapentin? I have a burning spot on right foot. I’m now in 75% TIR, but am starting Gabapentin to give time for things to settle. I’m concerned over side effects and when I end taking it. What’s your experience?Good morning one and all. Just thought I'd pop in with an update. After taking the combination of 4 diabetes medications for the past 3 months and stopping the Gabapentin my HbA1c had dropped from 80 to 59. Patient access stated that as abnormal but when I messaged the GP surgery to see if I needed a follow up visit they replied that my result had come up as normal. I will continue with the same medication for the next 3 months and hope my HbA1c improves even more as the past few weeks have included some very stressful times re mum. I wish you all a pleasant and successful day as always.
PS fbs this morning was 7.7
I took it because of shingles pain in one arm, I stopped it as soon as the pain went after c.three weeks. Its only any good for nerve pain. Is it neuropathy in your foot? The doctors should find the cause of the pain. You should not go cold turkey you tail it off gradually.How was it stopping the Gabapentin? I have a burning spot on right foot.

Trouble is if they start with nuclear weapons from Iran we will all suffer, Innocent and guilty.All of them, will definitely end up in the bad place, regardless of what their beliefs say!
That's exactly how Mr K feels about the loins - which is why I don't tell him that I don't particularly like them. If I did he would stop buying them, which would be a shame as he enjoys them so much.I love pork and obviously the loins are wonderful.
I looked up the recipe and it looks really tasty @dunelmI do like pork loin and also belly pork. I might get some this week and make something called Petit Sale Porc with lentils.
Actually that sounds really tasty. Perhaps I need to pass your recipe on to Mr KWe eat lean pork banged flat with a rolling pin and coated with a mix of beaten egg and grated mature cheddar and fried in olive oil.
