Group 7-day waking average?

Home Alone Wednesday 🙂 and it's another cool and grey start. Dry at the moment but scattered showers forecast for later. Might be able to get some garden maintenance done. Other than that it's a trip out to the garden centre shop for a fruit & veg top-up and, as Wednesday's a washday, deal with the laundry.

Congratulations @PattiEvans & @Lauren on your HSs yesterday and @Lanny on yours today. Room for me on that step?

Whatever your plans, have a good day.

Haven't posted for a while as BG all over the place. Don't know if it is getting over a vomiting bug ten days ago caused by crab or iron tablets or having dropped 1 metformin. Still trying to keep my iron levels up. Instead of yoghurt and fruit this morning had sea trout, samphire, avocado and pumpkin seeds. Will have yoghurt and fruit this evening before my aquafit class.
Reading 4.9
 
Good morning. From what I can see it's grey. I cannot see a lot as I'm back in hospital. Only local this time. I started with a pain in my side yesterday and it felt rather familiar.so rang and saw the GP who sent me here. They think I either have a bloodclot, or some residual infection. We'll see when results come in.

5.8 this morning. Have done an escape room for a friend's 70th. It was great fun.

Congrats @.Martin A on your HS.

Hope that whatever it is, they identify and treat it pronto
 
Morning all. 5.8.

Had a lovely relaxing day yesterday, I filled the bird feeders, read my book and went for a walk. We ended up walking to Tesco for Mr Eggy to upgrade his phone. it was taking ages so I went for a wander, two books later...could have bought more but not enough room in my rucksack as I also purchased a bottle of red! 5.5 miles under the belt. I slept like a log.
More of the same today except I have an appointment at GP surgery for full bloods to check my platelets again, they were high back in May.

@Wendal we are also going to North Yorkshire in September, we've booked an apartment above a teashop in Gunnerside, Swaledale area. That would be right up your street! 10% discount too, as the apartment and teashop is owned by the same person.

Congratulations to our HSers yesterday, @PattiEvans and @Lauren, ( I love green, I would have every room green if I could, so far kitchen, bathroom and living room are shades of green, living room soon to be dark green.)
@ColinUK I really enjoyed Bake Off and Sewing Bee last night. Pleased with the results of both. £3.50!

Have a wonderful Wednesday.
green is one of my favourite colours our new Kitchen is dark green

5.2 this morning and its unorganised chaos hubby been laying the laminate floor since 7am should be done shortly cooker and fridge freezer due before 3 there going to have to bring them through the back as the old freezer hasn't been picked up yet and its in the hall, the old cooker is being picked up sometime today we were promised a 2 hour window but they haven't messaged us,we think its a scrap guy anyway that's outside now so its out of the way.

Congratulations @Lanny and @Martin.A on your HS today
 
9.6 this morning, probably due to under bolussing last nights' meal - we had a curry, with copious amounts of pilau rice, quite late on.

Cloudy here today with a cooling breeze. I spoke to the builder about musical tastes (his and mine) - not to dissimilar to me; Punk, Heavy Metal, including how the genre got it's name - Sheffield, East/South Yorkshire, Birmingham.
He's sort out our leaning back wall to the bathroom today, & fitting a new double-glazed window - so should be much warmer in the winter.

MY good Lady is due out today to go to the travel company and show them her travel documents & passport detail. She's booked herself on the Queen Mary 2 next summer. I won't be joining her as I'm terrified of going out on a boat (size immaterial), going on a crossing to the Isle of Mann is bad enough.

Congratulation are in order for @Lanny , @Martin.A & @Pam123 on today's HSs!

Hope you have an enjoyable Wednesday, whatever the weather!
 
Afternoon, 5.4 for me this morning.

We've not started painting yet. Husband found two free chairs and desks on marketplace yesterday in great condition. We spent the evening putting these together and went to sleep at half 2!!

7yo went to a biscuit decorating class this morning. She was chuffed to be called the "best flooder", which I believe is something to do with icing!!1000122656.jpg
