No, I watch Ancient Aliens. For every world wonder, aliens did it. Ancient peoples had “gods that came from the stars” aliens of course! And the aliens kidnap people, take samples from them and on and on. :lol:

Ancient Aliens are posers.

Also have a copy of Chariots of the Gods somewhere. Watched that enough times as kid along with The Man Who Saw Tomorrow.

Maybe he can ask his doc about getting one.
Good Morning ALL! Happy Totally Thoughtful Tuesday!!! Last day of Feb, where oh where are the months going? As I look at a calendar that I have hanging on wall behind my computer I realized that so far all the Saturdays in March I'm going to be busy (Sat March 4th- grocery shopping, Sat March 11- AUCTION, Sat March 18th- my pup has vet appointment, right now March 25th is open but that doesn't mean it won't change between now and then).
Yes @frustratedearthmother he has asked about a system but he gets told even with his insurance it's going to cost him around $200. He did have a glucose monitor but our beagle decided he was going to chew the poking device and so far not able to find just a device and he just got the monitor not too long ago.

That's a shame...

The spring-loaded device is nice and makes it easier for sure. But, you can use the lancets by hand. Just takes a little more courage to jab yourself, lol.

It would be worth $200 for the monitor...in so many ways! Cut back somewhere else and get it. 👍

Supposed to be sun and low 70s today 🤞waiting on it! Had some sprinkles about 11-2 last night, not much but some strong, howling winds, too. Woke me. Gone now...clouds need to be gone too!
