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


You deserve to be! Yay! Run run rhubarb!
 

Talking of flies ... in one of my favorite books the girl is singing, "If I can't be near the horse I love, I'll love the horse I'm near."
 

Are you going to be getting a front bringing bad weather that's coming through?

They are predicting our first major snowstorm (5-10 cm, about 2-4 inches, we usually get lesser), haven't had any big snowstorms yet this year. Some places will get 25 cm - 9 3/4". Upstate New York always gets it worse than Toronto. (That's because the winds come across Lake Ontario, pick up moisture and therefore dump more on them.) It is 2 celsius (28F) outside here right now which is a warmer than it's been (-6 celsius). We got a light snow this morning, just enough to scrape it off with a shovel. One report says we are headed for the deep freeze, -27 celsius (-16F) with windchill, I hope they are wrong.

(Metric came in when I was in grade 7 so I can think it both for some things like weather).

@Chronicle_Cat we have rain and 62 degrees predicted for tomorrow, then back down into the 40s with sunshine for first of next week, going back up into the 50s and rain on Wednesday. Some people say that's why we get colds, etc., down here, all the temps going up and down through the winter, but the older I get the more I prefer that to what my friend in Michigan gets. I do love snow, though, especially now that I've retired and don't have to get out in it except to play a bit. But the older I get the more I worry about falling too.

Part of me wishes we had gone metric with the rest of the world. I really prefer the system I was brought up on, though -- but it would be so handy to know metric when I am on international BBs. I have gotten so good at thinking in mmols for my FBG that I was telling my doctor last week that when I wake up to a 6 or 7 I am more disappointed than when I wake to a 120-something.

When I started doing dressage I learned to think in meters (the way the arena and circles are measured) until even now I can picture 60 meters in my head, and I grew up with 50m pools instead of pools measured in yards. But I am still glad to note that even in England they still measure horse race distances in furlongs and miles.

LOL every time I think I am just opening a can of tuna (or a packet of people roast beef for myself, I hear the thump of paws hitting the floor and a hearty "MEow too!" ^. .^
