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

[Krystyna23040]

4.2 at 11pm - 6.5 this morning. Definitely dipped lower again in the middle of the night. So BS happily doing its own thing. Absolutely no idea why. Perhaps it is fed up with lockdown.

no more funny dog videos to email out so I suppose I should do some real work today. Mr K is going to sort out the shed this morning - he is definitely being much more industrious than I am.

hat walking Labradors is more dangerous than riding his motorbike.

They are tricky Krystyna...Harry once knocked me flat out on a short afternoon walk fortunately it was on a grassed area so no injuries...but I happened to be speaking to a group of dog walkers at the time.

Tried the delivery/pickup slots but non available.

I managed to get a click & collect slot MC ...on the 3rd of May fortunately it's well stocked here so should be alright until then I am avoiding traipsing round the supermarkets as much as possible.

 

[HarryBeau]

have I missed som posts or is this threads community even thinner on the ground? If so it's very concerning when friendship and support in the world is most needed.

It happens from time to time MC people wander off then wander back...make new alliances explore other parts of the forum...I cant keep up with all the pages most of the time & I tend to post later sometimes not at all...having no routine for me is now becoming a real lazy phase I must make more effort.

Morning...a glorious day sun is shining and set to continue...I am recovered form my queuing at our chemists yesterday in truth it only took 15-20 minutes...on the way home I popped into out little Tesco Express for some cream...it's located on a corner so as I approached it I saw no queue and no member of staff on the door as ususal so walked straight in and bought my goods...when I paid the cashier told me there was a queue which stretched right round the building I had no idea as I exited I made a quick escape...woke to a 6.5

Plans for today include a just barely legal bike ride. If I don't use it will never develop ability to go further. So quick trip to nearby village taking some recycling that really isn't neccessary. Although the exercise is, but cycling for exercise is banned here.

Edited to add: Ofc it is fine for me to cycle to the village EVERY DAY to get bread. But as I only eat low carb bread, which they dont sell. More difficult to find excuse/reason.
@johnpol love the series of development pics and the completed items would surely sell.
@Krystyna23040 wonder how my productivity stacks up against yours?
@Muddy Cyclist hugs for the crises in your close and a big Well Done for window cleaning. That's usually one of my least favourite jobs.

Stayed up and finished Tuesdays watercolour first in the Vista series. All will be from my Scotland Road Trip in our VW Camper. A4 just under two hours.

This reminds me of a trip we did many years ago - up along the West of Scotland - magical.

Does emailing funny doggie videos count as productivity? If so I am being really productive.

In my garden now
Blue skies and sun
On my thatched swing

Here is a photo of one of J’s pieces of pottery which lives in the garden...

I have many of his pieces of pottery. His interest was turreted castles. They stay inside! They are amazing...

He was a potter as well as a painter, and had his own kiln...

That sounds very productive @Krystyna23040

Good morning and happy International Bin Day everyone from the new tropics that is the dark and dangerous north

The wonder wheel of quite spicy leftover chicken in what can only be described as the antithesis of brain freeze came in at an eye watering 5.9 this am. Note to chef: don’t try and ‘sprinkle’ directly out of a spice jar while boogy woogying to Cajun music on pre-bin day. Mrs Miggins had her Tuesday afternoon tea while I entertained her with rapidly changing skin tones, eye popping and a who can drink the most milk challenge.

This gardening lark is now turning into micro-smallholding, quick where is my copy of “The Fat of The Land” by John Seymour. Stuff sprouting in jars, seeds a kimbo and the faint, syncope, beginnings of a kefir farm.

Meanwhile, queenie had a birthday yesterday - don’t worry if you missed it, another one will come along in a couple of months.

Have the very best of days that you can - koffy calls.

Morning all, the scores on the doors today are...…………………….9 it seems that the few days under the weather are being borne out in a delayed fashion on my bloods. felt ill 5, feel better 9, isn't diabetes just a hoot! I must go as work beckons and i'm trying my best to ignore it, but alas if I wish to be paid and eat then I must do something, but just a little bit.


Take care everyone and stay safe.

[HarryBeau]
