Ah.
My wife is diabetic and takes two kinds of insulin, but they aren’t mixed together. 
Kings Play Chess On Fine Grained Sand
Just a guess… she may use a premixed insulin. Something that says 70/30 (most likely IME, though it may be 75/25 or 50/50) on it is a mixture of 70% NPH (slow) and 30% regular insulin (fast). So, same thing just less hassle. 
A lot of health care facilities won’t use premixed insulins because they are more expensive but they’re common for home use. I’d guess the second one she takes is just straight regular insulin.
I type slow when I’m baby-feeding, apparently; Paul’s post wasn’t there when I started typing!
And I’m sure you pinned those 66% papers to your fridge in pride!

Your left hand making the shape of an L are three mnemonic devices that get used so often I’ve always been glad I never needed any of them. I never gave it much thought until I was a passenger in a car, in college and told the driver to make a right turn. I saw her very quickly ungrip the wheel so both of her hands were flat…“Rachel, did you just look at your hands to see which one made an L?” She did.
That reminds me of how I learned to remember how many days are in each month. (Hopefully this explanation makes sense without visual aids.)
Make a fist with your left hand and touch the base knuckle of your pinky. That’s January. The little valley between that and the ring finger knuckle is February. The ring finger knuckle is March, the next valley is April, and so forth. The knuckles are months with 31 days and the valleys are months with 30 or fewer. When you get to your index finger, continue across to the index finger of your right hand – those are July and August, the two consecutive 31-day months.

Now, if someone can come up with a better name, to prevent students from using their left hand when applying this rule, I’m sure many teachers would be very happy!
I’m thinking of renaming it the “Right hand -no, not the left, your other hand - the right hand - your other right Rule.”
What do you think? :smack:
Maybe add on to the end of that “-seriously, this is college f’n physics c’mon, rule”
You just have to remember pre-cambrian, but then it’s “Can Orville see down my pants pocket? Tom Jones can, Tom’s queer.”
To remember if the cranial nerves are motor, sensory, or both, we had “Some say marry money, but my brother says bad boys marry money.”
To remember which of mitosis or meiosis (properly pronounced my-oh-sis) produces sex cells, it’s “my OH OH OH sis.”
I learned which months had how many days by the phrase, “30 days in September, April, June, and November. All the rest have 31 (except for February of course).”
Also, not a mnemonic, but when I think of all of the seasons and the order they’re in, I think of James Taylor singing them in “You’ve got a Friend”
Here’s one that I just learned recently in my 4th decade:
To remember which water glass or bread plate is yours, point your index fingers up and make a ring with the remaining fingers & your thumb on each hand. Your left hand will form a lower-case “b,” indicating that your bread plate is on *that *side, your left. Your right hand will form a lower-case “d,” telling you that your drink glasses are on *that *side.
I will never again commandeer my dining partner’s bread plate or water glass.
Thanks, Ty!
I learned this as “Some say money matters but my brother says big boobs matter most.”
I learned the trigonometric functions using The Cat Sat On An Orange And Howled Horribly.
Arrange the nine initial letters into a 3 x 3 square like this:
T C S
O A O
A H H
and read down the columns to get:
tan = opposite / adjacent
cos = adjacent / hypotenuse
sin = opposite / hypotenuse
For the first few digits of pi, I was taught “How I wish I could calculate pi”.
Ah, I learnt it as: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain… which isn’t as amusing but is perhaps more thematically consistent.
Or you can remember the colours in the opposite order with: Virgins In Bed Give You Odd Reactions. 
For Pi the rhyme I memorized years ago is:
Sir, I bear a rhyme excelling
In mystic force and magic spelling;
Celestial sprites elucidate
All my own striving can’t relate.
I have to look this up EVERY time I have guests over for dinner. Never again!

I learned the directions as “Never Eat Sloppy Waffles.” Which amused the hell out of one of my magick teachers.
So I suppose now it’s…

(Pluto is TOO still a planet.) 
This never helped me because for some reason all I could remember was “30 days hath [a list of random months].” I guess I needed a mnemonic for the mnemonic! But then I leaned the knuckle thing and didn’t have to worry about it any more…
