7.8 He's going to make it !!! He was annoyed with the birds 5pm so sat in the doorway to stop them coming indoors. that was a great sign. 1am he went outside for his toilet but had to squat to pee. A huge pee so where did that come from? as I'd just been squirting 2ml into his mouth every 20mins. I must keep a supply of syringes & bigger then 2ml. 7am he's barking at the birds & starving .. he's feeling well. He / We are going on a strict diet after this & I have to find a home for the Spam, but today we just need to chill & recover.

192 this morning, not sure why (may be needed to wash my sticky sweet fingers first). Will retest after couple glasses of water.

96 Finally feels like I got something done at the house. Garage walls look brand new now. Pressure washer came and did all the concrete. Next is painting the garage floor. Something I've never done before.

All I need to do in a crowded store ilse is a little sneeze to get the folks thin out - then I can reach for the can of beans 152 today.

My latest feat was to put a larger tire on the rear of one of my bikes. I went from a 38mm width to a 44mm width tire. There was some doubt as to whether it would fit in the frame. It was raining, and I had nothing to do, so I tried it. It turned out to fit but there is literally not enough space between the tire and one side of the frame to even fit a coin in. After 80 miles, no signs of rub. It is a fun ride. I wouldn't advise it because, while a remote possibility, I could kick up a rock in there and lock up the rear wheel which would result in a skid. The bike shop tech was mightily impressed but, he also, wouldn't encourage it. Sometimes, you just gotta live lol... If I break a spoke, that will throw the wheel out of true and might prove to be fun...

Hmmm............ that boy Michael is still there & enjoying the journey . 7.3 I'm still cleaning up after the rain. Last night I put 2 rolls of paper towels in the cars boot/trunk so I'm hoping theyve soaked up the water . Hammer, that car is beautiful. You mustve been heartbroken to see it filled with water.

156 today. Still no side effects after the 2nd dose of moderna vaccine, it's been 15 hrs. I've got myself Sleepy Time tea with extra valerian root in it and made a strong brew last night - Slept like a baby I would not be able to keep calm, I do not swim. I do not faint either, so would probably go banging red on face till break the window or die. MIL gave me orange tool with sharp point to break window, I always wondered why. Apparently in Minnesota people often drive into lake or another body of water.

A 72 (4.0) today.

My reading this morning was 131. My backyard spotlight was going on and off, I got up to see what was causing it to cycle on and off. It turned out to be a couple of rabbits doing what rabbits do in the spring.

7 I'm sure I've heard this before... 🎼🎵 I can see clearly now the rain has gone 🎵 The stars are shining & soon the ISS will be going overhead. Yesterday I rang to make an appointment to see my doctor but was told she doesnt work there anymore. My heart sank at that news. The receptionists wet on to say Ive not been there for two years.. we laughed at that. She is the best GP I've ever had so declined seeing her replacement & asked where she worked now. Yay.. I see her tomorrow, although suspect my A1c will be up.

151 today. Doctor visit went well, a1c changed from 6.2 in October to 7.2 now which is not a lot considering I was depressed this winter after my sister sudden passing and ate/slept a lot and moved very little for months. Gained 12 lb not doing any fasting and overeating, now back to fasting 3 days a week. Doctor insists that if I lose more weight the a1c will come down without Trulicity, he is worried about my thyroid and ordered another scan. That was the thyroid lump scare in October that prompted me quit Trulicity cold turkey. Raining here a lot, looking forward to sunshine tomorrow

8.4 much food to too little activity

155 today, looking forward to another nice day outdoors. I am getting pansies in a drp-in biodegradable pot - if it gets cold i will take it inside the garage. Lee, sorry to hear folks are losing their homes to flood, hope there are no fatalities. FunDad, great job scheduling moving date a little later to be able to clean and fix the place before bringing your things in. We were moving interstate and movers were waiting for us right after the closing, i had no chance even to vacuum. Had to push things around to do the cleaning after we have moved (and the place was filthy).

6.8 Theres so much rain here on the coast. The regions burnt out in 2019 are now flooded with many evacuated. Yesterday I dug trenches for the water to escape from pathways declaring I'm too old for this. This rain had been predicted , so I had a big grocery order in case I was homebound. I waded through the front yard to greet the delivery guy & had him leave my groceries out on the footpath/sidewalk. I couldnt expect him to wade through ankle deep water. I kept reminding myself how worse things couldve been....... I couldve had to actually go into the store to shop . I love online shopping. Today is for cooking & freezing. I bought 6 eggplants , 3 pumpkins, 3 garlics ,4 cans tomato soup & 3 bags of grated cheese. If we lose electricity supply... they will have to certify me .
