Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning everyone . Hope you all have a good day and your BGs behave.
6.4 on meter, libra said 6.7 with a flatfish all night 🙂.
Been running a bit higher than usual since the cold weather started so might be needing a little tweak.

We’ve decided to get a reproduction desk for laptop and other things. What started it off was I saw a roll top bureau said to dad how much I liked them , he said he’d always wanted one , Looked online and saw a beautiful refurbished one but it was a rather big, so we’ve got our eye on another writing desk, not a roll top though, just waiting for some samples of wood and leather to come.
 
Morning all.🙂 5.9 here.😛

We made crackers in class the other day with hats n jokes n sweets inside - this was the only joke that raised a laugh (just!):
What d’you call someone who has a Santa phobia?
Claustrophobic...hahahaha (groan).🙄😉

Morning all. 5.7 for me.
Not long until the days start getting longer again.
Have a good day everyone.

I can’t wait
 
Morning all, a rather annoying 10.6 for me today. Had dinner earlier than normal last night and that consisted of an omelette, salad and about 8 chips! So frustrating! :(
 
Good morning all, 5.0 and woken up with a very husky voice but excited as going to London as my oldest daughter is graduating from LSE, she has a masters in Global gender studies. So proud and happy!
Have a wonderful day everyone.
 
Morning guys 🙂, thick layer of frost out there again, 6.1 for me and have a lovely cost day lovelies! :D xx
 
Morning all. A c**p 12.1 today. Nights are just a disaster for me at the moment. Went to bed at a nice 7.0. Doesn’t seem to matter what I do! Anyway I’m off to see Santa today 🙂

Oh, that's a pain, maybe ask Santa for some extra help?:D Enjoy the festivities with your son and hope you your numbers come down. 🙂
 
Morning all. No libre for me until Sunday so a finger pricking, post dog sorting out, 6.0 for me this morning.
Back to having to clean and dry the dogs feet every time they go out again:(

I used to have a Whippet, a large one, he died in 2000. I named him Dylan. Beautiful tan colour with black eyeliner markings. He was a rescue dog and my Son looked after him when I was travelling. He was 3 years old when I took him in and in a really terrible condition. I nursed him back to health which was a joy. To watch him run across fields when I let him off the lead was heart warming. He died in 2000 aged 17, I had him for 14 years. I sat on the floor with him in the vets, his head resting on my lap as he "went to sleep" for the last time. Broke my heart and sat there with him like that for 1 hour after he had gone. He was a good friend in many ways. A wonderful, intelligent animal and to this day I still miss him. When I do decide to retire, if I ever do, I will get another one. They are much under-rated dogs and make fabulous pets.
 
Good morning everyone. 7.7 after cutting 0.5 units off my evening bolus so, touch wood, my latest night basal tweaking is working 🙂
 
A 6.5 for me this morning.

Confession time...feel free to lecture in sharp tones 😳 I’ve managed to get something in my foot. Nothing massive but it made it painful to walk and it had a red bleb round it. I’d never get a doctor’s appt and I don’t have a diabetic clinic so my husband has sorted it and managed to get it out without too much pain and no bleeding. He used a sterile scalpel and extracted it from quite deep in the soft tissue. It feels much better now and I’ve got Savlon and a dressing on it. He’s very adept at these things and took out my stitches after the nurse botched them up and left two in!

Note to self...stop walking around with bare feet! 😱
