Group 7-day waking average?

5.5 this morning thus reversing, just, the upward trajectory.

It’s my wife’s birthday today and with restaurants closed I’ll be cheffing - surf & turf with a whiskey sauce, mushrooms, tobacco onions and chips.
 
Morning

7.3

Have a nice day
xx
 
Good morning all. A high 9.5 for me :(. Two good things today...
Its Friday!!!....and
Its half term, yay...its been a long one.

@Bexlee , happy half term to you.
@HenryBennett , your food sounds amazing. Hope your wife enjoys her birthday.

Have a lovely day everyone
 
Good morning all, it has been a long time since I posted my morning number, 5.1 on sensor. This sensor is behaving very well and I will be sad when it ends, as it is being very accurate!

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning all. A self induced 6.9, damn that birthday cake ( not really it was delicious). TBF it was the middle tier of the wedding cake, re purposed especially for the occasion as we weren’t allowed to cut into it and eat it at the non reception as it that would have been too receptiony!😱 Lemon, with a lemon syrup and lemon cream. The top tier is going up to Scotland today to the groom‘s relatives who couldn’t attend. They’re in the Central Belt and Mrs Sturgeon forbade the Scots from travelling specifically to Blackpool! You couldn’t make it up, could you! We’re lucky as still in tier 1 and have a bit more freedom than some, ie NI and Wales, sorry about that @HenryBennett and @Bloden, let’s hope the sacrifice is worth it. Have a good day.🙂
 
Morning all, 4.3 here, been crawling along the bottom all night despite a further basal reduction. Must have been the brisk walk I did with our son who is working from our home for a couple of days.
 
5.1 for me today. 🙂

Stay safe and well.
Dez
 
8,2 for me today after a dreadful night, pain in my knee kept waking me up, even the weight of the duvet was too much. Better now that I have got up and taken some pain killers.
@HenryBennett Happy Birthday to Mrs B.
@Bexlee and @freesia enjoy your well deserved break
Enjoy your day everyone x
 
08:14 BS 7.0. So,so emoji! My blood sugars were a bit higher & a bit erratic yesterday! I think I caught a wee chill when I was out that morning for bloodtests as it was quite a heavy drizzle while I waited for 10 minutes outside the health centre afterwards for my taxi home: didn’t get VERY wet but, still a bit damp as the wind blew a bit of drizzle onto me under the umbrella; still a wee bit headachy this morning & both sides of my neck under the chin were a bit tender yesterday! 🙄 But, had an early night & a long sleep so, that tenderness seems to be gone!🙂

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

PS: may cook & try polenta today & it’s not what I expected it to be at all: delivery guy, on Tuesday, called it a cheese & that’s what it looks like; a huge great packet of squishy, semi hard cheese!o_O But, it’s a low carb corn meal that you slice & pan fry that’s kind of like hash browns?🙄 That’s the theory anyway & it’ll be something new to try out!🙄o_O
 
Although I am getting a few fives now and again they are still rare enough to be exciting, so I was delighted to get a 5.9 at 05:55 this morning 🙂 . That's a waking five two days running. Even better is the fact that there are no school run for ten days - lie ins are in order!

Hope everyone has a great day today
 
The wife can sleep for England but I'll be up around 07:00-07:30

I'm up before 5:30 everyday for almost 2 years, before that it was 6:30 for 2 years plus I don't sleep well anyway so spend a lot of time exhausted xx

Alarm goes off at 05:50 on school days
 
A late start and then a busy morning so ‘a bit’ delayed in posting.
A 6.4 this morning.

Loving the amazing colours as the trees turn.
 
Very happy to report a 5.6 this morning. Will confess that I woke earlier and it was higher but slowly coming down and I was tempted to go back to sleep for a little longer again to see if I could get an HS but not sure I could have claimed it with a clear conscience and any celebration would have been tarnished.
Had a very busy day yesterday and I was absolutely shattered last night and no real idea of how much evening Levemir to have but seem to have guessed it pretty much right at another 1.5 reduction. Not running today as body is feeling a bit sore but plenty of walking still.
Happy to have a new Libre sensor on. It gave me a few slightly dodgy readings during the first few hours but seems to be pretty reliable now.
