Group 7-day waking average?

Morning and I had Pizza last night but a Margarita and not a Hawaiian but look at end result a HS but a real one a 5.2.
My graph did peak at about 8 as a result of my late sandwich but managed to get my correction dose about right.
Picked my wife up at 10 last night and she had a great time but said there was no food only cake but the Birthday Girl was OK as they had a big meal beforehand.
It was not her fault as it was a surprise to her and yes I know that it would have been expensive but could the daughter not have let the guests know in advance.
There were quite a few local Councillors there which gives my wife the chance to have vent about “ potholes” but she enjoyed herself and that was great.
We had a nice day trip to Butchers and to a Silk Flower shop to get a display for her mums grave as it was her Birthday today so we will visit the grave later.
We also went to a local Tropical Plant Specialist and we bought a couple of small Tree Ferns and my wife could talk away and get some advice.
We seem to have a lot of Crows and Jackdaws around and taken up residence in our trees and make such a noise.Last night when I was walking the dogs before picking up my wife I noticed that there was a dead pigeon which someone had pushed under our hedge presumably to clear it off the payment.
Sadly I picked it up and put it in our bin as our dogs would no doubt be sniffing around it in the dark and I did not want that.Well the Carrion Crows were cackling this morning maybe wondering where their breakfast had gone.
I know it is nature but I don’t like handling dead bodies even mice etc.
Let my wife pinch and punch me as she was carrying our dog downstairs ( the one that had leg operation) even though he has had a fantastic recovery he cant do stairs on his own) even though I could have won for once.
Anyway enough of me prattling on and have a great start to Flaming June.

Morning folks. 6.6.

Having a quiet day today after a busy week. The plan this week, as we don’t have any childcare until Thursday, is to do a spring clean. I’m afraid it’s been all fur coat and no knickers this year. Quick Hoover and a spritz of Mr Sheen on occasion. This week we’ll be moving furniture, how exciting! The Vax will also be put to use, cream sofas + seven grandchildren = grubby marks!

Tummy still giving me a bit of jip but not as bad as it can get. Just taking it easy on the food front, although I am doing a roast dinner with the Tesco half price Easter lamb. Yummy. Small portions for me.

Congrats @Wendal on your HS and to yesterday’s champions. I’ve only caught up with the craic.

Have a good day, thundery showers forecast for us, the sun is shining now though.
 
Morning all, 5.3 here, two mornings running, I think. Despite the huge amount of cake at the garden centre yesterday afternoon. Went out with both kids, the cake portions are huge, so I didn’t have one of my own, but had a third of the kids' ones and a bucket of insulin to was them down.

Good morning, up super early with a 6.4. I am taking the dog to the secure field so she can have a run off lead, but our slot is 6.30am!
Looks like another warm day.
Mission accomplished :rofl: she's knackered

Morning all. After yesterday's highs and lows, i had a lie in and woke to a 5.2!! Congrats on yours @Wendal.

We had a lovely day with younger daughter yesterday. Living around 3 hours from us we only get to see her if she comes for the weekend or we get there for a day. She loves where she lives though and loves her job and lifestyle so thats the main thing. At least we have older daughter living locally.

Not much planned for today apart from a trip to the tip so will just be reading, catching up with tv and dozing i suspect.

Have a good day everyone.

Gone midnight when we got home after our get-together with our friends over in Surrey so a bit of a lie-in this morning. I'm still the only one up. Sun's shining and it looks like we have another nice day in store. 5.8 when I tested.

Nothing on the calendar for today so I'm hoping to catch some of the tennis, on the subject of which my wife gave me a birthday surprise by having arranged for us to spend a couple of days in Eastbourne during the ATP & WTA tournament later this month, with tickets for the QFs. Can't wait.

Congrats @Wendal and @freesia on your HS this morning, and @Colin g on yours yesterday.

Have a good first day of Summer, everyone.

Thanks to all the congrats.
Colin enjoy your day out and sure I have mentioned before you are going to very close to where I was born and bred and still have family.
My main memories of Bedlington apart from visiting relatives was the Miners Picnic and the Roller Skating Rink
