Group 7-day waking average?

Hello everyone 🙂 Posted elsewhere on forum but not here for some reason 😳

5.9 today, MH has been playing up again, anger flared up last night (not diabetes-related this time) and had another low social battery moment the other day :confused: Today’s been ok, trying to keep calm, also finally did what I should have done ages and told my friend what had been eating me up for months, it feels like a weight off honestly.

Have received texts/emails on flu jabs and graduation ceremonies, and 2 friends have invited me to theirs next weekend so yeah there’s stuff to look forward to 🙂

Hoping people are safe and well :D
 
Good morning 🙂 5.1 for me on a blood test 🙂 My sensor ended yesterday evening and I decided to spend a night 'naked' 😱 :D Felt weird in the night when I woke up for a pee and not doing a scan! Also strange doing a blood test instead of a scan before breakfast, felt very 'old school'! 😱 :D Nice to see such a good number! 🙂
 
Good morning everyone. Up at 4am. Should have posted then but got buried in some algorithm or other.

Still, BG this morning still quite low for me 4.3 but ok.

Pulse also a bit low at 50bpm but oxy sat 98% and no dizziness so ok

I did get out for a walk yesterday. It looked like it was just about to pour down every step of the way but I kept going. 112 minutes in the end. Happy with that.

Nothing planned today. A bit tired too, so this is the very time to get out there !!!!
 
Good morning 10.0 just after waking today OMG
bit of a shock there, Im now thinking - did I forget my insulin yesterday evening
(I only take a small dose now) but I having woken to a Ten for over a year so Im doubting myself

looking forward to the weekend,
October has been a tough month at work.

have a great day everybody
 
Mornings folks. A 7.4 for me today. Looking at my Libre graph and I was going up and up as the night went on. Fatty tea. Pie and chips. Ooops! It was lovely though even if I say so myself.

It’s still raining! Cumbria has been hit pretty bad, especially the Lakes. Properties in Cockermouth and Keswick have been flooded. Roads impassable around Windermere, Ambleside areas. Hoping it’s going to stop sometime today. Our rivers are very high and I know some friends and family will be getting very nervous at the moment. Fingers crossed the flood defences do their job. :confused:

In the meantime, we’re having a flood of grandchildren arriving early doors! ! Eldest already here, she stayed last night, three middle ones this morning and last but not least baby Zara for lunch. Two eldest going to cinema to see James Bond with Gags, they’re having a spot of lunch in town first. Ok for some. Me and the little ones are going to decorate the dining room ready for our Halloween party tomorrow then we’re going to watch Croods 2 which I bought on Apple TV yesterday. We may have snacks! Busy day, better get on. I have a chilli to make today for tomorrow. The theme is Mexican, inspired by the Day of the Dead festival, can you tell we have just recently re watched Spectre? :D

Have a fab Friday everyone.🙂
 
07:06 BS 5.3 🙂 Worth getting up for: VERY reluctantly did so; still need some more sleep after yesterday!😳🙄

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

Yesterday was fine & 100 LR was what I needed: even a little bit high post meals & needed +2 or +4 more NR than usual! 🙄

But, feeling better now so, dialling back the LR now!

Will try & get some more z’s now? A stream of z’s emoji!
 
Morning everyone. The libre woke me at just after 6, i scanned and it was 4.4. I had a couple of JBs and decided to check again in a few mins. Then i had an odd experience....
I must have gone back to sleep as i dreamed that i was at work treating a hypo. After checking i was ok, i put my bag away and went back to the classroom where i promptly collapsed on the floor, tongue feelng odd and lips tingling, shaking... People watched me for a while before asking what was wrong and i managed to ask them to get my bag. They went off but didn't come back. This happened with a few people before i managed to crawl and get it myself. I woke sweating, shaking and dizzy, finger prick shows i was 3.0. Better now but a very odd experience.

@eggyg, i hope you are safe up there. The floods looked bad on the news last night.
 
Morning all. :D 5.4 here.

The weather hasn’t put off the half-termers, who are out in force every morning with their cockerpoos and Costa coffees - what happened to all the other dog breeds? 😳:D And, how do people manage to walk along the beach and sip a boiling hot coffee without 1. spilling it everywhere, and 2. scalding their bottom lip? Answers on a postcard, plz.😛

We’re fine thanks, we live on a hill! If it gets to us the whole world is doomed! But if it doesn’t stop soon Carlisle could be under threat. Again. The city hasn’t fully recovered from the 2015 floods.
It will be quite ironic if delegates can’t get to COP26 in Glasgow next week because of flooding on the Cumbrian railway lines.
 
5.5 for me today. 🙂 Off out shortly for some exercise when it gets a bit lighter. I hate these dark mornings such a waste of the day.

Why do folks WANT to walk on the beach with a coffee? That puzzles me!

I've never been able to walk and drink at the same time and can't understand people who would want to either.
 
7.5 today and very windy down here. Not much happening today.
@goodybags lets hope November is a much better month for you. Stay strong x
@freesia your dream sounds horrible, is this maybe an underlying worry for you as you have had a stressful time lately. Xx
Have a good Friday all xx

Thank you. Who knows how the body and mind works, there is so much going on all of the time with no let up. I'd planned a restful week but it hasn't really turned out that way. Fingers crossed today and the weekend will be quiet.
I hope you are feeling better. Are you looking forward to getting back to work?
 
Morning

8.3 for me and looking like yet another sensor is on it's way out :(

@freesia I've seen a few dream they are having hypo's when they are in fact really having a hypo

Does anyone know of sites online that I could buy presents with the option of gift wrapping available at all? xx
