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

I do think the new badge and lanyard is really clear. I also like I'm Deaf, not rude
 
Thank you @ianpspurs and have a wonderful time with prettifying the manse.
 
That lanyard and card look a lot more easier for people to see than your previous one. Processing information - no. What you said. Plain language, not veiled speech.
 
One rock in the whole of that lake/sea and they had to find it!
 
Happy 95th MIL. Hope it all goes well today.
 
7.5 at 04.00 today. Still dozy because I didn't sleep well.

It's bright and sunny here, but not warm so I have radiators going full blast.

Finally got my desk area organised yesterday evening - I'm not good at moving things around, but Neil did the heavy bit and I did what should have been the lighter bit of putting the filing trays back in order and re-arranging the phone and tablet beside the pc and so on. It still took me ages, with frequent rests in between tasks. I keep thinking I'm lazy but, actually I know it isn't laziness - it just hurts too much to carry on. Still, I can do it with frequent breaks and as long as I can, I will.
 
Happy Birthday for MIL @ianpspurs
 
Sounds some great improvised meals @SlimLizzy
Kiki was very good!
 
I think Clint Eastwood said it best in magnum force

"A man's (woman) gotta know their limitations "

I had to find that out the hard way, post accident.

Sure we'd all like to be our 20 year old selves
But we both know that going at that pace our later selves wouldn't last too long.

So lazy, god no.

Sensible & patient enough to pace yourself so you CAN go another day ... absolutely

Let’s hope that MrSlim is back up and running when the removal van arrives - interesting times.
The van arrives tomorrow. MrSlim made a valiant effort on Saturday and packed his heavy tools, cement mixer etc. Then we took them over to the friends who are storing them for us. But the next day it was obvious he had overdone it and he was dizzy and not able to do much. By afternoon he had improved somewhat and we took a carload of fragile items to the storage place. They are coming tomorrow and suddenly we have so much stuff still to pack - and only three boxes
 
Good morning everyone on a wet and windy start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north. A walk into town and back yesterday lunchtime with slushy snow underfoot and intermittent rain. All dry thanks to Rohan and Muck. The deeply dangerous snow perpetuated by candle and matches manufactures has now gone. I will be digging out one of our exercise machines this morning. It’s rarely used, just when Mrs Miggins declares that the carpets need cleaning! Luckily we bought all the optional extras so I can do the ‘clean the stair carpet’ exercise - good for making your knees click. In truth, I did Alfred Adler’s separation of tasks when the machine was first purchased and decided that carpet cleaning was my task, so no big deal. Art bit, it snowed in places. May your day be not impinged by other’s priorities. Making my koffy certainly is not.
