Weather man just said we have a possible record high temperature today, which would be 94 degrees.

That's warm for this time of year!

Been in the high 80's here in East Texas. Humidity is way down, so the mornings and most of the day has been good, but by 4 pm, it's too warm to keep pushing it, so I find something indoors to do.

Tomorrow is supposed to change. The front is coming through tonight and I'm hoping Fall actually happens here!!!

Anybody seen the OP, oosik, post on the board lately?

I've been checking, but haven't seen him post in quite a while.

Diabetes

I could use some advice before I get an earful from a specialist. Since many of us are older, the frequency of diabetes among our members has to be significant. I'm concerned... for decades my blood sugar was stuck at 99. Just under what I thought was the 100 threshold. I've now bounced...

Thank you Mr Inman, I somehow missed that thread. Glad to hear oosik is still cruising on his 80 acre spread overlooking his lakes!

I haven't watched to local weather yet to see what the official high temp is for today, but this is what I had at my house.

I mailed Mr. Oosik about 3 weeks ago. He hurt his back pretty badly several months ago and was struggling to get around including typing.

He's on the mend and indicated he'd be back soon. He did provide an update on the diabetes thread a few days ago, so very positive indications!
