I'm watching the Little League world series on ABC.  The kids from
Hawaii just hit 2 home runs consecutively.  Those kids are awsome.
Last night we watched the other team have one heck of a game against
Japan.  Good games.

I had my last meal last night at 7pm. No food or drink for at least 12

it's 6.2. Usually my meter is much lower than the lab fasting ...

I've been busy all week.  I have a show coming up on Sept. 23 so I've been
painting like a crazy lady!  It was too hot to work in the studio most of
the summer.  Have two more in this series to do before then.  I'll also be
doing an open canvas on the 24th.  That's where I set up ...

years, I'm not even a beginner (yet). I've had bad experiences ...

I fear that I have more to fear than most of you with the potential flu
pandemic. Let alone any usual influenza strain that happens every year.
Why? Because I cannot get the flu vaccine. I'm sure the vaccine they are
developing for this pandemic will also be culutured in eggs. ...

problems in taking water tablets. Are they to be avoided ??

I read this morning in a post of your's about the loss of your friend.
I want to tell you how sorry I am.
Losing someone in an instant, is so very difficult.  No time to prepare.
 No time for goodbyes.

Now I understand what happens in a delayed spike and it's pretty

misleading results. Sometimes seemingly safe foods, based on the 0hr -
2hr tests, can be eaten and tested against and several hours later your

Just kidding, just kidding.

I just went with my wife (who is nearly 6 months pregnant) to the
doctor today and they did a limited glucose tolerance test, which

I've seen some very interesting posts about Vinegar in this group and
elsewhere, so I've been using vinegar, on and off, since my first week
