Clinic appointment this morning, and then off to have a nice lunch and do a couple of other errands in the city I had to fast this AM and am starving! I will take some snacks with me so as soon as the blood work is done I can chow down. What are you up to today?

Today my husband's 2nd cousin will be picking up another load of his clothes, etc. so that she should only have one load tomorrow when he leaves the rehab facility. I hope you enjoyed your lunch. Have a good weekend.

@snowy22315 He says he's OK. His cousin and I are worried about getting him into the house. I hope it goes well.

I dislike fasting for bloodwork. But I only have to get them twice a year as I have to see my primary care doctor twice a year and he wants me to have the blood tests before our visit so that we can discuss the results of the tests. I have my peer coming over today and we plan to cook together. hope you have the best weekend you've ever had!

Thanks, I have had my blood taken probably at least 6 times this year as part of this study.

@LovesEverybody It was painless yesterday, although sometimes it isn't. The person who draws the blood at the study is typically very good.

@snowy22315 I could never do that. I have very small veins and the ladies taking the blood once they get the needle in the vein have to move the needle around. that hurts and makes me nauseous. I have to get another test in December for a doctor's appointment that month. I will have three tests this year after December's test as I had an extra test for one of my medicine levels

I almost love the car snacks for after fasting blood work more than I do a regular start to the day. I hope that your day is going well. I worked today, but since it is my early day, I finish at 2:30, which is nice.

That's awesome. They taste good on an empty stomach for sure.

@Juliaacv That sounds tasty, although barbecue chicken pizza isn't my fave. It's too sweet for me. I prefer lots of garlic or tomato flavor with mine.

@snowy22315 Between your fasting and my cookie baking, I ran out of time and ordered supper in. I ordered a nice barbeque chicken pizza and garlic bread and cheese.

@snowy22315 - Banana is very good when we feel hungry.

I have been pushing my doctor's check up from last few weeks..I should too get it done. It's just a routine diabetic health checkup. I hope that all goes well with your blood work. And it's over soon, so that you can eat.

I was supposed to get bloodwork done too this morning, but at 3am I ate a “biscuit” from a product test without thinking. So tomorrow I’ll do the fasting bloodwork. That piece of nothing was not worth it. So now I’m just making phone calls, and trying to get an MRI scheduled.

I hate having to fast if I can’t have my coffee right away I get headaches. My little one and I walked to the library downtown for a pinkalicious event. She loved it.

I'm always starving when I have to fast for bloodwork. Good idea to bring some snacks. Enjoy your day and your lunch. That part sounds like fun (not the bloodwork). Today I am just hanging out, doing some housework and letting the day just happen. Nothing exciting

Most days are like that! I am at the restaurant. They are slow as molasses here even though they are not crowded Not in a hurry, but still

Time goes slowly when (you think) you're starving! Those snacks will taste good.

That's the downside of having blood work done. I haven't had one in a while, but I remember I loved it when I was a kid because my mother would always bring me to a café to get croissants.
