Fasting BG 2017

[rocky]

BSG, Finally great news from your end.

79 last evening before dinner and 89 this morning's fasting number.

[Tamagno]

125 this morning.

After a lot of confusion, the MRI affair seems to have been settled and will happen Monday. Concern over nerve damage around my brain stem necessitates the matter, although I personally think it's really nothing.

On a more positive note, my visit with the surgeon went well and I won't have to see him again until February!

112 this morning.

Barbara - So glad you got some rain at your place.  Hope it continues to help with the smoke situation.

Tamagno - It's always a good thing when the doctor gives you good news and you don't have to see him for a few months.

It continues to be unseasonably warm here with a high of 90 deg F predicted for today.  All of our grass is now brown instead of green.  It has been over a month since we've had rain which is not good news for the farmers in the area.

84 (4.65) this morning.  Weather here is quite nice now and nothing to complain about !  We have a small lawn in the front of this house and our next door neighbor is a landscaper so we let him take care of it.  No need for a lawnmower !   
Water is expensive here in the desert so lawns are not common and if this was not already here it would not be allowed.
Tamagno, good news about your doctors appointment.  Hope the MRI comes out well. 
Barbara, yeah !  hope there is more rain/snow and the fires are finally contained.

Snap Rocky! 89 (4.93) here too this partly cloudy blue sky morning, 93 (5.15) at bedtime last night.

The rain and snow have made a huge difference! Hardly can smell any smoke and the sky is blue except for the clouds.  They got quite a bit of snow on the higher elevations plus the much cooler temps have really slowed the fires. The mountains to the West of me are topped with snow but there is still some fire at lower elevations.  Much less than before though. Another storm front expected Tuesday.  Hope that puts the fires to rest for good.

That is good news tamagno. 

Happy for you, BSG. You deserve smoke free air.

77 for the evening and 90 today morning.

[Tamagno]

165 this morning.

Still working on switching pumps and have been trading phone messages with the Tandem rep to get insurance issues resolved. Everything appears to grow more complex once Medicare is involved which evidently is in the habit of changing regulations at their whim. I think it will work out, however.

81 (4.49) this morning.  We reached a high temp of 89° yesterday.  I think that is the first day below 90° since moving here.  It's supposed to be 94° today though but looking like it will be in the 80's in a couple of days.
That sounds like good news Barbara.  Clear skies are a wonderful thing !
Tamagno, yes, dealing with Medicare can be a horribly frustrating thing.

[Grammabear]

94 this morning.

I saw an American Robin this morning apparently it is migrating south as we usually don't see them once Summer is over. 

Tamagno - You are correct in saying that Medicare apparently changes their rules on a whim.  Those folks that are using the G5 Dexcom system have been waiting a long time for Medicare to make up their minds about covering the expense of that system.  I wish you the best.

82 (4.54) this cloudy morning, 83 (4.6)
at bedtime last night.

Clean air again today! It is lovely. There is a small fire in the mountains to the west of me, but it has gotten smaller as the day progressed. I think they are letting it go until next week's weather passes through. That should put it out.

I am fortunate in that I don't have to deal too much with Medicare. They and my supplemental policy cover my dr visits and I have private drug coverage that is stellar.

Tomagno, glad you  are free of surgeon visits for a while.

Yesterday (sunday) was a lazy day. I mostly slept or watched some TV and did some cleaning of course. 81 for the evening and 91 for fasting today.

[Tamagno]

131 this morning.

We are presently enjoying a spate of good and summery weather which is wonderful. With some luck it'll continue for a couple of more weeks before fall sets in for good!

[Grammabear]

100 this morning.

Yesterday our refrigerator quit working and we had to spend the rest of the day shopping for a new refrigerator that would fit into the space.  We finally found one but they cannot deliver it until Wednesday.  We had to throw out all the food in our freezer and most of what was in the refrigerator itself.  I'm hoping today will be a better day for us.  At least the sun is shining and it is nice and warm.

[walkerwally1]

81 (4.49) this morning.  We have been in the low 90s for high temps the last few days.  Thursday, the first day of Fall in the Northern Hemi, we are supposed to be 76-78° which will be much more Fall like.  Alas, it is supposed to be back to the 90s after that.  They are talking about a chance of snow in the Northern Sierras !

[bigskygal]

84 (4.65) this cloudy morning, 80 (4.43)
at bedtime last night.

It is 49°F (9.44°C) and raining!! Has been for about 3 hours. It is the beginning of the rain they forecast for tomorrow. Hope the rain lasts all night!

Grammabear, so sorry about your refrigerator. Been there done that when I first moved up here.
