Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning everyone, I have gone through hell and back but feeling better and 6.5 this morning.
My 27 year old daughter got caught up in a hammer attack in London on the tube, she was fine but looked after two injured young men and called the ambulance. Very traumatic for her, but dead proud of how when everyone else ran away, she stayed to help, and was the only one. She is taking time off work to recover, and is with her two sisters who are supporting her. I would love to go but she says no as they all took masks off and no socially distancing happened.
I wish you all a good day.

Oh my goodness, how awful for your daughter, I hope she is ok and that the victims recover speedily. Well done to her, I’m sure you are very proud but sad to think these incidents are happening.
 
@New-journey oh my what an ordeal, glad your daughter is ok and good on her for helping xx
 
Happy Saturday folks. And it’s another 5.2 for me!
 
Morning all. My great few days have been scuppered by that pesky DF. i went to bed last night on 6.8, woke at 3.30am to see 14.3 with an upward trend so had 2u correction and went back to bed. Woke this morning to 12.7 with upward trend. One of those days again i suppose... 🙄

@New-journey you should be very proud of your daughter, it was an extremely brave thing she did. I hope she is ok.
@Robin, sorry you might not be able to go.

This year is getting worse, not better, everything seems such an effort atm.

Well, whatever you all have planned for this blustery, cold day, make it a good one. Stay safe everyone x
 
5.0 this morning. 🙂

Mooorning. :D 5.2 for me too.

Well, we managed half a walk this morning. When we got to the beach, the rain started coming down by the bathtubful, and the wind was blowing it into every crack n crevice - eek! 😱 - so we turned back.

What a brave daughter @New-journey...terrifying!
 
Morning. 6.7 on this very blustery day, Storm Aidan I believe. Our town went into tier 2 at midnight, we had a whole 11 hours notice! Apparently our councillors only heard about it when it was reported in the media! The plan today was to have our three youngest grandchildren over for a Halloween party whilst their mum and dad had their first night out since Valentines. It’s still happening, rebel or what? With the news we may be heading for a national lockdown very soon I’m ignoring the tier 2 guidance for this weekend. After tomorrow I’ll be compliant again, promise. Mr Eggy is planning a trip to the supermarket this morning, rather him than me! Take care everyone, stay safe and we WILL get through this, eventually. 🙂

Crikey!😱 @New-journey , that was really brave & kind of your daughter to do what she did!🙂

08:44 BS 7.0😛:D MUCH better & yesterday went better with bolus still the same, midday Levemir -2 that resulted in after meals peaking in the 8’s & down to 5.1 before lunch & dinner so, I put up midnight Levemir back up 2, yesterday’s -4 reduction resulting in an 11 waking BS, & I wake up bang on the top of the target range: NICE planning!🙄:D😛😉

Oh my! It’s been a RAGING storm ALL night & it’s still HOWLING outside right now & showing no signs of abating, yet!😱 THAT really is an apposite emoji: Munch’s The Scream! VERY noisy & wanted to cover my ears!😱

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

Morning all, 3.9 here, my normally predictable dawn rise seems to have gone on holiday. Talking of which, looks like our upcoming Devon break will be scuppered. All I want to do is walk along some cliff paths!

That’s rubbish isn’t it? This whole thing is so frustrating, plans made and then scuppered in the blink of an eye. The only plan I’m making now is to not make any plans! :(

Congratulations on the HS and being brave enough to venture out this morning. I’m hunkering down all weekend.
 
Another day below six for me with a 5.4 at 07.08 this stormy morning. That's six days running below six. 🙂

Morning all. Very blustery and nippy. Forgot to take bg. I thought it was All Saints tomorrow? I must go cem...

Yes, All Saints' Day is tomorrow, 1st November. Presumably the Spanish have transferred the holiday for it to today, not much benefit in having a holiday on a Sunday!

Congrats on the HS!!!
 
Better for me this morning 9.3. followed this by a coffee and half hour of yoga- up to 12.2 (double checked too)! Out for a walk then. Back down now to 8.9.
I've heard about high impact/weights causing a raise in BG but yoga? So disappointed.

If you didn't eat apart from the coffee, the rise may have been your liver giving you a "helpful" boost, and nothing to do with the yoga.
