What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Thanks @PenguinMum. I was feeling very "ill" 34 years ago after stag night. I remember that day and the year and date of our wedding. Embarrassingly, I don't really know (without looking at my google diary) the year any of my sons were born and uncertain of the date for our youngest. I was at the birth of all 3 and remember every detail of each day - just not the year.:arghh::arghh:

Ah we always remember the dates of our sons birth and the child we lost. Our two sons are coming for lunch tomorrow so it will be a roast beef lunch which is a big responsibility for me to cook it right! Nevertheless looking forward to it.

Thats a heart warming tale and rather lovely, I must say. Let me be early in congratulating you both.

@ianspur you’ve just reminded me it’s our anniversaries next week too. Had totally forgotten. Oops won’t tell hubby he doesn’t need to know if I forget....
 
Morning folks. 4.9 today - don't know if that is at all accurate but being a sapient nincompoop I have entered it into the spreadsheet. @Goacher55 glad I reminded you. BTW, what is with so many ladies referring to husbands as hubby? If I thought Mrs P used that term I would be seriously considering divorce - it is well above coconut on my list of dislikes, at least as high as Dr Who.

Morning All. 5.8 at 06.30 which isnt a true reading as I generally take it at 0800. Will check again then but will be higher. Awake early not really up reading in bed.
Hope you all have a good Sunday. Stay well, stay safe.
@ianpspurs how are you with using OH which I have used in posts but peculiarly would never use in realtime conversation.
 
Good morning all. 5.0 this morn. Lowest in a while. Treadmill this morning, but may do a walk after.
Family lunch today, but may just turn up for coffee as its so difficult to find anything on the menu to eat.
Mums radiation treatment is finishing Wed. We are all so glad it has gone relatively well.
Hope everyone is well or well taken care of. Hope your BG does you proud. Have a great Sunday.
 
Morning- will chat more later but first I need to get to the start line for a 15 mile road race (running) this morning. This would have been unthinkable 6 months ago.
I’m weighing in at 83.3kg, 18.2kg down since May.
BG of 5.8 this morning so good to go.
Wish me luck - this is gonna be proper hard.

Thinking about OH is interesting. I think my wife was a complete person without me BUT words of cleric at our wedding come to mind. Marriage ordained that each may complete/perfect the other. Marriage and family definitely added a missing "vital organ" to me. To answer the question, ITRL I always use Mrs Ps name - my wife etc is cold, distant and vaguely abusive.
@rhubarb73 So much respect and praise - just doing it makes you a winner. Time is irrelevant
