Group 7-day waking average?

Morning folks. 6.3 on this frosty morning.

The birds are singing here too @Lanny. Heard them at 5.55 when I popped to the loo. I haven’t been asleep since. Mind whirring about Ukraine, I need to stop doom scrolling but I also don’t want to bury my head in the sand and pretend it isn’t happening. Mr Eggy has also got up early, this only usually happens if we’re going on holiday! His mind was whirring about the same thing. Luckily we’ve got the farmers’ three children coming later for a sleepover, that’ll keep us occupied and make us realise how lucky we are, and them.

Have a good day. 🙂

Did you decide what to feed them after the hoards descended and are you out of house and home yesterday?
 
06:26 BS 7.7 🙂

And it’s the return of little birdies singing madrigals to wake me up! :D😛😎 Spring is in the air!🙂

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
Talking of madrigals have you seen Encanto yet?
 
Good morning 8.3 today
have a great day everybody
 
Good morning everyone! BG 6.

Yesterday I had both breakfast and dinner shifts at work, and the eye screening in between. I warned my supervisor in the morning that I was getting some drops in my eyes and if they looked weird in the evening, it wasn't because any suspicious substance...:D then the lady at the screening said my pupils are big enough and didn't even use the drops.
 
Morning all. 5.6 for me and a lovely day ahead. First, having hair cut and coloured then after lunch, meeting a friend for a coffee and a wander. Have a lovely Saturday whatever you are up to.
 
Morning all on a bright sunny day.

9.1 gotta do something about this.

Off to a friend’s 70th birthday celebration this morning. Ten pin bowling, followed by Pizza. Hopefully the first will counteract the second!
 
8.8 ive stille ended up taking half a unit off my backfast but perhaps on that level i should have just done my normal dose I’ll find out at lunch
 
5.3 for me today. 🙂
2°c outside and frosty. 😱

Morning all, 4.8 here, despite knocking a whole unit off my basal last night to counteract an afternoon’s gardening and a glass of wine later. Suspect dehydration rather than genuine lows in the night, it’ll shoot up when I’ve drunk my tea, but it ruins my Time in Range. Looks cold out there, and not sunny, will need to wrap up for riding.
 
8.2 today, does being freezing cold make your bg go up, if so that’s the reason. Sooo cold last night in the caravan but couldn’t force myself to have the heating on all night, two hot water bottles and the dog didn’t help much!! Even Misty got in the bed 😳
Thank goodness my GP is more with it, I get my strips on prescription, it’s common sense to test. Got the owners party tonight and owners breakfast tomorrow morning so that should be good.
@Lyna welcome to the thread, most of us are bonkers but we help each other along.
Have a good day all x
 
Morning all.
4am was 23.3 so downed a bunch of water and went back to sleep for 4 more hours for another go at fingerprick roulette and got a much more sensible 15.5.
Aren't antibiotics fun 🙄. I think its fair to say they are still kicking my butt (and bg) all over the place.

Wordle in 3 today :D
Anyway a day of naps and pottering about doing what I can is todays plan 🙂

Have a great day everyone
 
Morning

very grey here today, 8.4 this morning, but thankfully the asthmas fairy has flown away, just as well as I am taking mum for her blood tests this morning. Got to think of what I m going to take to Bakeclub on Monday, this times theme is surprise me, at the moment it is still a surprise for me. Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

Going to order my Exante diet box when I get back to get me back on track with my eating as I know I am eating way too many carbs again, which is shown in my numbers, and been playing with the same 4lbs since Christmas lose it, gain it, repeat the cycle, I still need to lose between 14 and 21lbs. thank you for the link @ColinUK

@Lyna - welcome to the thread.

re the GP,’s not liking testing my DN must be a bit unusual as I was given my meter and originally got strips on prescription this was only changed when my my HbA1C came down.

Hoping you start feeling better soon.

Hot dogs for lunch, if they want, I’ve roasted a ham for sandwiches, got leftover vegetable lasagne from our tea last night and one portion of chicken soup left. That’s lunch sorted. We’re having a roast chicken dinner tonight. Mashed and roast potatoes, cauli and broccoli cheese, mashed carrot and swede and what I call “cabbage medley”, lightly cooked shredded cabbage, then pan fried with garlic and bacon and cream added at the end. It’s delicious, you could try it without the bacon. Think the cupboards will be bare by tomorrow evening! :rofl:

I had my first fail today. I’m absolutely gutted. Had two choices for the word, took the wrong one. That’s my day ruined! 😉
