Group 7-day waking average?

I was just about to “like” Your comment until we got to guest of Ferrari....... how lucky was that?! I’ve been to silverstone a few times the noise and smell is amazing. Current champ / team are NOT my cup of tea as they make it somewhat boring generally speaking. Take them out and it’s not bad Unfortunately I’m a German Ferrari supporter currently. Who knows next season ! I loved the Senna /Prost / Hill / Schui (til he kept winning) era then of course the Vettle Years !
Schui has my undying respect for his skill on the track and what happened on the ski slope.

You’ll hate me more when I tell you I just remembered I also went as a guest of the BRDC one time. Ferrari, BRDC, Maclaren and Williams were all clients of mine at one point or another hence the invites to various things.
One absolute joy was being able to drive a 250 Topolino from the office in London all the way to Maranello and a 400 Superamerica from there up to Geneva!
 
No BG reading for me today. I’m waiting for new test strips to arrive.
 
Changed the batteries on my tester yesterday and a pleasant 6.6 today. Off for another fun filled day soon.
I was more of a Brands Hatch girl, I remember watching Barry Sheene, he was brill.
@Bexlee so glad to hear your first day went well x
Have a good day all x

5.5 for me this morning.
 
Waking was 03:41 BS 5.7 🙂 And 93 minutes after breakfast reading 05:53 BS 7.8.🙂

Finally got insulin doses right yesterday & BS in range at Levemir 56 & 76 units midnight/midday & Novorapid at 50, 40 & 40 units. After breakfast BS was ok at 90 minutes at 08:06 BS 6.0 but, by lunch 5 hours & 4 minutes, I remembered looking at the Timesulin cap, after breakfast 10:40 BS 4.4 so took the precaution of a JB while I cooked, lowered the dose & injected just after eatting. 90 minutes after 13:40 BS 7.6. Went down to before dinner 15:51 BS 5.8 & after 17:49 BS 6.1. Then, went to bed. I didn’t sleep after posting yesterday morning & stayed up as late as I could WITHOUT getting too exhausted & releasing adrenaline to try & get my sleeping pattern back to normal! It was a LONG day of about 22 hours!o_O

So, from those readings & doses yesterday, I decided NR doses of 48, 44 & 40. 48 for breakfast has panned out pretty well already this morning & I’ll see how the rest goes?🙂🙄

An early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

Still the odd cough now & then when awake but, no dry throat on waking this morning & feeling a lot better in body & mind now I’ve got my insulin doses sorted. Sleeping pattern is also, nearly back to normal!🙂😉

Let’s see what the next few days bring as I might need to go down a bit as I get over this little sniffle?🙄
 
Morning

Well Morrisond delivery last night, out of the 30 items ordered I received 30 items 😱 ran out of pretty much everything at the same time so spent a small fortune, well for me it is anyway

3.9 on waking so 2 glucose chews and a 5.5 before breakfast

Have a nice day my lovelies
xx
 
Morning everyone. 8.6 for me this morning, can't seem to shift lower atm.
@Bexlee glad your first day was ok. I agree that it feels like we've not been off. I came home last night absolutely exhausted!!
 
Morning all, 6.0 here. Have to get up early, men with hedge trimmers are imminent, need to be on coffee and tea duty all day. Cutting our very long double beech and hornbeam hedges up the drive is a gardening job too far, it’s the only one we pay someone else to do!
 
No reading today as the nurses didn’t come around and I’ve now had breakfast. Hoping for an angiogram today, maybe it’s lost?
Seems your having as much luck as my dad, think this will be his 10th day in hospital and apparently yesterday was the 4th time his op had been cancelled, good luck and I hope you get home soon, when I was in to be diagnosed Type 1 I couldn't wait to get out and I wasn't even in 24 hours! lol xx
 
Snap @Anitram - another 5.2 here this morning! :D
Stay safe and well everyone.

Good luck to your dad, shocking that an op is cancelled 4 times
 
As per usual on a Tuesday, woken up early (at 06:33) by the binmen chucking everyone's recycling boxes around. My wife insists on sleeping with the bedroom window open, whatever the time of year, which doesn't help. Anyway, got up and tested and it's 5.2 so they can come every morning if that's what the result is.

Disaster yesterday as Excel told me that my spreadsheet with all my readings, food diary etc was corrupt and couldn't be opened. Fortunately I also have it all written down in a notebook (don't you just love reliable old pen & paper) so I can recreate it if I want, but have decided to just start a new one.

Whatever your plans, have a good day.

Martin
Martin you can get apps for phone or iPad where you can upload readings as and when and often foc
 
Morning, a wee bit late, another restless and sleepless night. A very normal 6.2, I like normal. Damp and dull but forecast is for it to be warm, a day in the garden, for Mr Eggy, my, now over nine month old, pelvis injury was playing up yesterday, as soon as I stepped out of the door yesterday to go to pharmacy it started, so only 2.5 miles walked. And definitely no gardening today!
Congrats @Anitram and @MeeTooTeeTwo ( again) on your HSs!
All this talk of racing cars etc has made me reminisce about our trip to the Nürburgring last year. I have zero interest in that sort of thing but we had the tour and I did find it interesting. We weren’t able to drive it as the weather was atrocious, I was secretly very pleased about that!🙂
