151 Jumped out of bed and drove up to the lab for blood work for my upcoming endo appointment. Signed in, waited, then was told my doctors office did not send in any orders. Grrrr. Now I have to do it a second time. 🤬 The weather is a bit nicer now. I got some things done outside that I've been putting off until the humidity dropped. I actually got to walk twice this weekend too. Afternoon thunderstorms have stopped. My favorite time of the year approaching. October through March.

7.4 Hello Sunday

104 today, I do bounce around.

Aced the fasting this morning lol...

137 this morning, I am back on Janumet because on metformin alone my average BG from 6.5 to 7.2 in just several days. I was cocky I thought I was smarter than diabetes and could control it just with fasting and diet My sensor tracked it so well it was obvious I was wrong and that I had to go back on expensive drug.. but the good news is yesterday's BG graph shows much lower levels. My clover seed sprouted just after 3 days, I kept watering it and day / night temperatures are perfect. Lee, my hubby also mentioned clover being bee friendly is an added benefit!

128 this morning. I forgot to take a reading yesterday morning, my company left early in the morning so there was a lot of running around with them getting ready to leave. Later I went and bought some mums for the window boxes, I took photos of them on my cell phone but they didn't come out. I'm back home for two weeks.

95 today.

110 I'm taking a vacation day today to extend the long weekend. Had mom here over the weekend and drove her home yesterday. We had a great visit. She had me driving her all over town shopping for things for her garden. And had a small chore list for me when I took her home before I left. Lol. 58 years old and my mom still has a to-do list for me.

146 today, had one sweet corn on the cob and it did not affect my BG much. I was working in the back yard in the morning while it was still cool, trying to start white clover seed where tree stump was ground. Sod / grass dies there every year because wood decomposing process depletes nitrogen in the soil and this spot does not absorb much water. So, I am trying white clover, it might do better in strange spot; at this time I will be happy to have any green ground cover growing there or there will be lots of muddy paw prints in the fall / winter in the house 🐾

144 Happy Labor Day (in the USA). Happy Monday to everyone else.

7 on this Monday. It's good to see you back on the circuit Mike & what a great cause to raise funds for.

100. September is the month that I have participated in the "Great Cycle Challenge" fundraiser to fund research to beat cancer in children. This is my 2nd year riding.

106, then Eggos with the wife.

121 today

100 today.

Another 94 this morning.

Woke to a 94 today. Errands and groceries.

I know that plant! Black sea area has those growing and they are called "mimosa" when touched leaves sort of fold. Little bunches used to be given for Women's Day (=Mothers Day) in former USSR. 136 today. Discovered growing spot in the kitchen ceiling, must be slow leak on the roof somewhere called roofing company that installed roof 2 years ago.

95 this morning.

7.3 on the first day of our Spring. Wattle Day / Acacia pycnantha Acacia.webp

96 today.

118 Heard from my brother late yesterday after his cell service was restored. All is well with them. Trees down, lots of debris but the house was untouched. He's 30 miles north of New Orleans so the storm had weakened slightly by the time it got to him.

93 today.

Happy birthday Clint! 🎂 128 today, still too warm for me 77F and humid at sunrise. Its first Huskers game of the season today and it is madness as usual, college football is like religion in this state - everyone wears read on game day and wave at each other yelling "Go Big Red!". I added video just to give you an idea about UN in Lincoln and its culture. Today Huskers are playing at Illinois and 35K fans headed there. Invasion!!
