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

Good Morening Ladies and Gentleman

Blood sugars this morning were 5.1 . For those of you interested 51 is not a prime number.

Here in Tilehurst Towers it was late start to the day getting out of bed at 9:15am.
Mrs J, who’s tea was late extracted revenge by trimming my beard and cutting my hair.

Have a great day all, stay safe.

Samson.
 
@dunelm, happy birthday to your mum; @ianpspurs, happy birthday to the Little Guy; @Lamont D, good luck with the Yorkie invasion.

Bed by 22.45 last night - absolutely shattered. Out like a light but awake again by 24.30. All my pains worse again, but it was my Libre that woke me saying it couldn't get a signal (I was laying on the arm with the sensor on it). BG was low anyway at 3.7. I could still move a bit so I came through to the kitchen (took several minutes to shakily cover the 12 feet from my bedroom) and took some painkillers and had a cup of milk to bring BG up to a reasonable level. Went back to bed about 02.30 and managed to sleep until 06.30.

So here I am. Parcel returned to Amazon (via Alistair and the Royal Mail), ready to make some things to go in the freezer ready for the Royal Visit (my big brother and sister-in-law) in the middle of the month.

Alistair delivered a 2 metre length of finger trunking from Amazon which I have been trying to get hold of for a couple of months. I had ordered a similar one from Amazon in early June but for some reason dispatch was delayed and delayed again so I finally cancelled it and ordered a different one on Tuesday. It arrived today, so now Neil has the job of installing it and tidying up all the cables on my desk. It's not a major tidy of the kitchen; it still has to be done, but it's one step forward.
 
Great trees @dunelm
Teetering on the cliff top, waiting anxiously for the next mudslide....

A beautiful walk through the woods.

Happy birthday to your mum...
 
Enjoy the celebration @ianpspurs

Creative...Amazon messed up my parcels...and sent me wrong stuff...so I am out of time today, I am tired because I had to go out again this morning to collect a resend,but the contents were still incorrect...did my head in working it out. Been asleep all afternoon. And so you get an inkblot...

Hope you having a good day.


And here is a kaleidoscope of it for good measure...

 
Thank you @ianpspurs. My niece came up from Bordeaux for the weekend and took her granny out to lunch at her favorite restaurant. Happy birthday to the Little Guy™
 
Thanks @Annb
 
Hug for the Amazon mess up but what a lovely ink blot creation of a Heath Robinson style flying hippocrocopig. or what ever you like.

Good to see you here Derek. Thank you and everyone else for the birthday wishes for my grandson. Last seen careering round the garden in a Buzz Lightyear costume wearing oversized Hulk boxing gloves. He must get it from JKP. God blessed us with dry weather, some shade for me and time with my boys and grandchildren. Oh and #3 son provided green salad, barbequed halloumi, chicken thigh, courgette and yellow pepper kebabs plus bbq chicken skin (from the thighs) - Elsie Keto never seemed so good, so good, so good. That would go well in a song
 
Happy mums birthday!
Sounds like a great day and great artwork.
A day to reme.
 
Happy #3 birthday, enjoy the celebrations. And of course the cake!
 
Thanks @Annb b
a houseful!
a merry time!
a lot of noise.
a lot of attention to our yorkies.
a lot of photo sharing.
#1,#3#5,#6,#7 & #8 being grandkids, just like me.
Mrs L had a wonderful smile on her face, until she was tripped but didn't call ov er and roll around like a prima donna, it was defo a pen. Red card issued to the ratbag.

The house is very quiet now.
Gonna tidy up tomorrow, Mrs L has laid down, watching the athletics.
fish being cooked.
early bed tonight.

Nanny's v nazis.
The nans won.

Have a wonderful evening, just as I have had a nice day.
Best wishes to you lot as always.
 
Thank you @ianpspurs. Hope you enjoyed the cake.
 
@gennepher thank you for sharing the creative. That is my favourite of the inkblot series so far, incredibly creative. @Krystyna23040 and @Lamont D no cake for me as I didn't have the heart to make my son weigh 12 gms and a Spiderman cake doesn't suit my constitution. Just had yesterday's turbot I'm not a white fish fan so my opinion may be biased but whilst it is better than cod, haddock, coley etc (very low barrier to clear, more like limbo under) I can't see the value taste wise compared to Tilapia.
