I check my Glucose level every morning. Load my lancet into the lancing device, puncture the skin, take the blood sample and using my Glucose Meter, get my reading. This morning the tail cap on the end of the lancing device flew off, launching the cap and spring. Cap was broken after 13 years of daily use. No sweat, I'll go buy another one.

She must have been a Bendable relative, because she knew exactly what I was looking for.

Good for her.

However, that's not that bad of a test. My Dad likes to use the the word "thing" multiple times in a sentence and each time it means something else. I'm good at 1, Ok at 2, but at 3 I'm
