Looks to me like someone tried to use a vessal one too many times and had a breakout....

Slag thimble.
And it was too full, so the craneman had to tip it.
Thimble carrier won't pick it up if it's full. Too much risk of burning the driver.

The cool walk home helped cool me down
Straddled this for a few hours.

I'm always amazed to see molten steel pour into the mold at the top in a vertical orientation and come out the bottom as a solid slab in the horizontal orientation.

I think I figured out what was going on. I think since I didn't eat before giving blood, and then didn't eat for several hours after. It sent my sugars crazy. My normal range is about 95 to 150. Sometimes into the 190's occasionally if I decide to go carby. Only once I was over 200 and that was at 201. By the time I actually tested my sugar, haven't done so in months, last night it was at 275 and that was takin several hours after eating, and drinking lots of water. It's coming down, but it's coming down slow. I went extreme with limiting the carbs today, and I'll keep it that way now. Ate after work at 8, again about 20 minutes ago, and the snack I'll bring to work will put me at 20 carbs for the day. The doctor wants me at about 30 a day, but I'll be more strict until my sugars normalize. I was at 156 a few minutes ago.

ill see how tomorrow goes, to see if I want to start the meds back up.compared to this time yesterday, I feel a whole lot better.

Good luck and be careful. You need to eat at regular times and test your sugar level a few times more.

Sitting at the car repair shop. Brake light fluid leaked out of the rear left bulb, fortunately they have the correct fluid and it is being refilled with "blinker & brake" fluid under warranty.

Don't use the pre-mix stuff as it can be inconsistent from batch to batch. Make sure the mechanic mixes it there in the shop.

Anyone have a Glock 19 holster that will work on a suregrip belt? Need to borrow one for this weekend if possible. Any kydex should work too.
