Life's exciting as a diabetic. Picture is not of me.

No more pricking fingers everyday. I am now a bionic man.

Benefit is that I'm testing a lot more regularly and have a better idea how all food ups my blood sugar.

Give it another 10 or 20 years and You'll get over it. I now have a service "treat" our yard but I still cut it myself. About break even in cost for chems and stuff.

Bought some plastidip for my son. I think I have this Jetta looking about as good as it possibly can right now.

It's an SE - but added GLI upper and lower grills - added fog lights - Audi style LED DRLs - CAI - lip spoiler in the back - and blacked out all the badges. Now I painted the wheels. To too bad for a high school car...

Wish they sold black ones instead of having to resort to the aftermarket.

Yeah, I am certainly impressed. I use headphones at work, and am at a point where my QC35s were more annoying than useful due to the amount of people coming to talk to me.

I have yet to recharge the case this week and I listen to the headphones almost all day. I also like the features like auto pause when you take one of the earbuds out, which is good for work.

I don't think they would be my first choice for a workout headphone but they are just about perfect for the capacity in which I use them.

Yeah, the eco-system just works too well. My 2011 Macbook air was getting under 2 hours of battery life and starting to show some lag in processing so was looking at computers, ended up getting this 13" pro for over $300 off so pulled the trigger.

Fiance was having issues with phone (iPhone 6) dying mid day and didn't want to buy a new one, so I got a new one and gave her my 7 Plus.

Gen 1 Apple watch got bashed on some corral while diving in Belize so decided to get the new 3 series with cellular.

Certainly don't do a full refresh on a regular basis.

I have a full suite of Bose Soundtouch (and Echo/Echo Dots to pair with) and love them. No reason for a homepod.

Nice. What rack? I was looking to pick up a Rogue RML-390F Monster Lite once I let my basement foundation settle a bit more.

Hey, when you're done lifting, do you just drop the bar like certain people at the gym?

Just curious...want to know if you are repetitively testing the strength of your floorboards...
