Quote from: John G. on October 28, 2025, 06:13:58 AMTOD:I have had to give myself weekly injections for my diabetes. Everything is already set up in the pin, which looks like a tube. I place the tube on my stomach, unlock it, hit a button and several seconds later (about 5 or 6), it’s done. I don’t have to measure anything. I don’t have to deal with air bubbles. Question for you. Do you pinch the skin on your stomach first or just leave it flat against your skin before pressing?I started my first injection on my thigh and pinching the skin is not to be done with this injectable. It doesn't clearly state how to do the stomach and I have read mixed things about that. I think I shouldn't pinch.

George, those were fun bathroom photos in last night's posts.
They’re screwing around with the Internet connection here. Irritating.
Tonight I go to see Suffs on its national tour. I'm looking forward to it!
Listening to some hurricane coverage. Someone recommended https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qitHKtkqN_w but I'm sure there are plenty of sites or channels covering it.I cannot even begin to imagine a CAT-5, 180-200-mph hurricane.
MichaelG - if you see the cast, say hi to Jenna Lea Rosen - she grew up with Kritzerland - did her first show for us at eleven, back in 2011.
George, nice photos of your bathroom.
DR George, I like your new masks, and how you have hung up your mugs.

I don't yet know where to hang it, but I'll find a place. And here it is:The clock is beautiful.

I enjoyed seeing the photos of DR GEORGE's updated Day-core.

It is going to take a little getting used to, though.
Topic of the Day: I was prescribed liraglutide (Victoza) instead of metformin. It's a daily injection, unlike Ozempic, which is a weekly injection. I shoot up in my belly with a big pinch.
Back from breakfast and many errands and whatnot.

I got the recording of John Cassavettes’ Opening Night, which should be Rufus Wainwright’s Opening Night, from the library.
