Thank you for sharing another wonderful Kaleider kaleidoscope. You are certainly producing quality creatives whilst learning how all the bells and whistles function. A day for hoarding your spoons. All quiet here for Labor day - base locked, planes grounded so who's protecting us?

8.1 at 05.20 today (I slept in). Dropped to 6.5 by the time I got through to the kitchen, but back up to 8.2 after a cup of tea.

A bit on the chilly side here this morning. Neil has decided to go back to bed and not do the shopping today. No problem, plenty in to keep us going. Maybe tomorrow.

Feeling a bit lethargic myself but really ought to get on with stuff.
 
Conserving my spoons today ...doing little jobs within my limits...

Thank you for the kaleidoscope compliment.

Oh dear...they're on holiday @ianpspurs ...
 
Just about time to say Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen and also to those not sure of their gender, please check, but not each other and certainly not in public.

Blood sugars this morning were in the eights, I checked twice.

Back on the hospital grindstone today. Today will be the tenth session out of a total of twenty. The staff at the hospital are very friendly and helpful especially to an old, long haired, obese motorcyclist who is not very woke tolerant, but does bring a smile to their faces, or more likely they are suffering from wind……

If you are venturing into the Reading area please bring a flask and sandwiches to consume while you spend time sitting at road works.
 
Thank you for sharing the fjords. Trolls actually live under wooden bridges over ditches In Cambs (on the walk past heaven and up the incline to the Meridian line) but they allow small children and dogs to pass if given a sweet. They also sing jolly songs - (what is a Gilligan?) I hope the journey went/is going smoothly.
 
I can see them, I think there must be six of seven?
Hate trolls online.
Have a nice trip mate.
 
The plot thickens and I still like the borg cube.
 
a Gilligan is an island.
 
No FBG today,
No doubt around 7+

Lovely news for a change.
Our niece is with child.
Her due date is our anniversary.
We are so pleased for her. Mrs L actually cracked
a smile

I was reporting yesterday around the shop, well it wasn't the shop, it was an idiot.
Drove into a car who stopped at the lights.
Allegedly the idiot was a bit tipsy! Hence the numerous rozzers.

All quiet on the grandkids front,

The weather was shocking this morning, the thunderstorm slipped through with a drenching. The temperature didn't drop. The view across the footie pitches, was as if in a cloud.

Is anyone reading this or are you lot on your travels or asleep?

My bestest wishes to whoever is out there.
 
Lovely news about your niece.

Busy, busy, doing chores and then trying to sort out a family history problem about an uncle I was told had died in 1936 but someone else thinks he married in 1938 and died in 1984. If that was the case, he kept well hidden. Had to send off for a death certificate to check if I have the right one. Very common name, unfortunately - Fred King.
 
F...King,
isn't that a really common name?
or saying?
 
I was asleep, late afternoon nap.... @Lamont D
Now in bed ready for sleep again....
No thunderstorms here, just a tidly bit of rain....
Sigh...
 
It has decidedly gone cooler here.
And rain has gone, but cloudy.
Have a good rest.
Midnight just woke me up from a dead sleep. He wanted his nighttime meds (I was going to give them at the time of midnight cos I always wake up then, but he decided NOW, and I was getting no peace)...that is coconut oil, he laps that off my hand, and I rub the remainder on his coat. Then he gets half inch of taurine paste (cats need supplementing as they get older), half an inch of hairball paste, and a half inch of another one...I forget the name @Lamont D

I am just trying to make another Borg cube...but my luck is not in. I am getting pretty pretty effects...that is not my mood...



 
A stunning stairway @gennepher. The luxurious designer carpets at Harrods couldn't match that!


Monday's FBG 4.3 mmol/L on waking at 6.00 am.
 
Good morning everyone from a very wet start to the day here in French Froggy France. Amazingly the 21st C high tech world in which we live in actually worked and delivered a seamless, on time, travel experience although I did nearly come a cropper at Bordeaux railway station when I forgot that my fitbit watch does not automatically advance an hour to accommodate the strange practices of French timekeeping even though time does not really exist outside of a human construct invented during the Industrial Revolution to minimise wages. The wifi at my parents house is probably older than they are and just as crank so no idea if this will load. So, art bit, squiggles on a train and plane. Never mind the turbulence, feel the width. Hope that good old UK is still in existence one hour in the past. I am pondering upon the qualities of three cafetières and will then capitulate and just grab one.

Yes this time differential caught Ade out the other day he was going to call us on the phone but thought it too late in the evening totally forgetting Rome is an hour ahead of us.
He told us when he did phone that he will be getting a photo of him shaking the Pope’s hand there are 170 of them at the General Chapter and the poor old Pope ended up having to shake each one of them by the hand what an ordeal for an elderly gentleman I think.
