Group 7-day waking average?

Morning everyone. Woke this morning to a 2.9 😱 ! Three JBs down and its 8.8 and going up fast. I'm struggling to keep levels steady when i'm in work one day, sitting at home in front of a laptop the next, back to work again the next etc.

Have a good day all. If you need to go out, be careful out there.
 
Morning all, 8.2 here! Libre trace has been up and down like a yo-yo all night. I was 6.5 at 5.30am,and it took me a while to get back to sleep, so I was in the middle of a complicated dream when the alarm woke me up.
 
Morning good peeps. :D 6.4 here.

Well, I finished the hat I was knitting for a friend, but the colours are really bland and childish, which doesn’t describe my friend at all! So, back to the drawing board. 😳🙂
 
Morning

5.9 for me for a second day, 2 Lifts down the hatch before a full unit reduction for brekkie seen as I had 2 Lifts yesterday and 2.5U for brekkie and still was on a downward trend and feeling it come 10:34am, no time for that today as have a telephone appointment with my advisor at the job centre at 10:50am to update claimant commitment, failure to answer the phone can end in being sanctioned 😱

Also have to do contraceptive injection shortly, realised a month or so ago that they are made by Pfizer

More snow forecast for today, surprised the gritter has already been round the scheme this morning, we're usually last on the list to be done!

Emailed the council yesterday to enquire about our application, it was passed on to Bruce's housing officer and she's emailed the team that deal with it to see if she can get an answer as to what the hold up is, says she'll keep me updated so fingers crossed she sticks to her word!
xx
 
8.1 on this sub zero morning. Heading back under the duvet whilst the heating does it's job from the outside and until coffee is cool enough to warm my insides!
Love and thoughts go out to all today, especially those who need to head of to work X
 
Morning all, 6.1 on this snowy morning, might have enough to build a small snowman. Fed the birds in my dressing gown! 😉 After my ablutions I’ve an appointment with Morphy Richards and his pal Minky. See you tomorrow all being well.🙂
 
Just had to pop back on to tell you that I’ve just received a text inviting me to get my jab. There was a really easy link and it’s done. Friday at 13.40. Yeah! As the Pointer Sisters sang. I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it! :D
 
Morning everyone it’s 5.8 for me, nice to be in the 5’s again. Off in a mo for a bobble hat walk, my friend and I are celebrating 50 years of friendship! We still laugh about the same things and talk about Duran Duran and we still lust after John Taylor!!! I have a stolen pair of his socks (unwashed) not from a grubby groupie incident I might add but they are one of my most prized possessions, she has never forgiven me!! Enjoy your day everyone and stay safe x
@MeeTooTeeTwo can you send those bt men over to me next I had the ‘bike’ come up on my internet speed test last night! Couldn’t access Bling Empire! It’s my new guilty pleasure!!
 
we still lust after John Taylor!!! I have a stolen pair of his socks (unwashed)
Eww! I’m just thinking ahead. When you take them to Antiques Roadshow to be valued how can you prove they belonged to John Taylor?
In any event, we need to know how you came by them.
 
Morning all - 7.0 this morning. A little high, but a hectic day with work, late dinner and slightly higher carb food (bit of a treat)... i'll take that reading happily 😉

Have a great day everyone 🙂
 
Wife woke me early today shouting something about chicken in her sleep. BG was a slightly high 6.3 at 06:19 but having just checked my stats my pulse was 110 where as normally it is in the low 60s so suspect a bit of a flight or fight response due to my rude awakening!

Currently snowing lightly so very cold on the "chicken run". The heaters in the dishwasher blew on Saturday morning tripping the kitchen electrics so been washing up the old fashioned way for the last few days. Repair man will be here before 12 which will be a relief.

Three conference calls, a bike ride and then braised beef for tea is the order of the day
 
4.0 for me abit moody today but normally pick up later on, sleeping in is not good for me it's taken 56yrs to understand that.
 
Friday at 13.40. Yeah! As the Pointer Sisters sang. I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it! :D
Excellent news for you. Did they say which one you're having?
 
5.9!

And off out for a walk because unexpectedly found myself with no work to do today.
