thanks @dunelm a lovely part of the world. Good luck with herding one and all.Yes. Sorry for the long delay - been off the website for a bit.
So I'm not the only one Krystyna.I have on these occasions resorted to following someone who looks as though they know where they are going.
Funny for the anecdote not the wonderful fbg. The A47 in this part of the world does take one to places resembling the Wild, Wild, West. Basically law and order have little writ in that part of the county. Hopefully, your part of the world is tamer.A surprising 5.0 this morning. Blood sugars are going through a spell of running in the low 4s during the day which does make me feel a bit tired.
We have finally got the sat nav working and it only took two days to figure it out. I have never had a sat nav in any of my cars and it will be really useful next time I am diverted off the A47 because of an accident. It will be great not to get lost.
I have on these occasions resorted to following someone who looks as though they know where they are going. This often doesn't turn out well. A friend of mine did that in the fog and ended up following a car into its driveway.

Thank you SaskiaKC.
Sorry you are feeling poorly HarrisonK. My neighbour has COPD and really struggles with her breathing. Hope it's not a chest infection and that with some rest you are soon feeling better. Take care.Greeted by 6.7 and what seems to be the beginnings of a chest infection. Yesterdays walk was terminated at the park when I realised there was no way I'd make it back. Luckily a neighbour was there walking his dog and gave me a lift back. Of my two conditions, being T2 is easier to manage, COPD is plain nasty.
Enough of the doom and gloom, it's the weekend and I shall stay in and enjoy a drop of Talisker (to kill the germs, obviously)
Thank you gennepher.I agree with all everyone has said previously @dogslife
I’ve done it with my aunt, mother, and with my father when I said it was my turn to come in today and my (dead) mother’s turn to come in tomorrow and that worked and satisfied. But it does hurt you inside especially with keeping repeating this.
A bottomless basket of hugs for you to take one when you need it. And you do need some chill out time which feels virtually impossible in the circumstances. But as I understand from what you have written above, that you have got to a stage where you can mentally stand back a little now. Build on that and make sure you have that time out to rest and recuperate yourself.
Thank you ianpspurs.@dogslife and @jjraak I can only echo the sentiments others have expressed. Seems odd to say but both my parents dying within hours, unaware of the death of the other, always comforted me somewhat. No idea how you both deal with the problems you face(d). FBG has nothing to do with any of that but for some on here today being Holy Cross Day just may. Personally, I learn far more about human resilience than anything else from this forum. Take care folks.
Edited to add: @HarrisonK different situations but resilience and facing challenges head on with humility and good grace do you great honour. Take good care and enjoy the Talisker.
Thanks for the virtual hug dunelm. Glad you enjoyed your time in Wales, a wonderful place.Good morning everyone. Back from a fairly relaxing week of R&R in Wales. Not fully there yet but a change of scenery works wonders.
The wonder wheel has been dusted off and grunted out a begrudging 5.1 this am.
Off the the GP surgery this morning - another bunch of flu jab hopefuls to herd towards the phalanx of needles at the end of the surgery corridor - a bit like a reenactment of the battle of Thermopylae.
Big hugs for @dogslife, @jjraak and all who want one.
Have a wonderful day if you can.
Thank you Muddy Cyclist. Enjoy your day.Another early Good Morning with a 4.9 at 4.30am.
@dogslife I truly wish you well through these difficult times, like many here I have much empathy and hope you are able to find time to smell the roses along the way on this difficult journey.
Today off for a rather long walk to record a 360 degree vista for posterity and the local AONB records. Then one of my grandaughters wildlife birthday party after which they all come back to us for an evening meal, a long day ahead.
