Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning from sunny E Kent , we have had a smattering of rain here which is most unusual. Even when we don’t have a heatwave, our tiddly bit of E Kent is well known for its dryness, a mile away it can be pelting down or even flooded but here we have dry tootsies.

Woke to 6.0 and 5.8 Libre . I did some hill climbing in the night but I don’t think it could be @anything to do with the 6 mint crumbles that shoved themselves down my throat before I climbed into bed 🙄😱
 
You should keep those mint crumbles in a safe, Lin, they sneak up on you otherwise.:D

Snakes Alive 5.5. That was a lowish number. Now I need a shower. Scorchio.
 
Awake early for me. (6am) late posting 8.8 late tea and bowl of ice cream. Back to good food choices on Tuesday after visiting weekend and grandson gone home. That’s the plan anyway
 
Good morning . I’ve not read any posts yet , I will catch up later
I hope you all have a good day.
Woke earlier to 6.0 meter, 5.4 Libre with a good impression of a flatfish 🙂 . Completed basal testing this morning, it looks like 3.5 units is fine—————— for now.:D
I am sooooo looking forward to brekkie. :D
 
Morning all.🙂 13.3 here...oops! A rebound hyper, I never learn!😛

Well, I would’ve had a lie-in but a pesky crow at the window decided to be our alarm clock at 7am...caw caw, caw caw...until I shouted “go away!” 🙄
 
Morning everyone. I woke with 6.8 this lovely morning.

Yesterday I went to the DSN, but alas Steph was on holiday in Croatia. Never mind, a good discussion was had, and I’m getting my consultant referral. I’ve also accrued a pending appointment for an eye check and the asthma clinic, so back to normal.🙂

I also blagged a BG testing kit to supplement the Libre. The current flavour of the month is a Tee2 system, which I’ve never heard of, from Spirit Healthcare. I’ve never heard of them, either, but as all BG testing kits have to conform to a standard, I’m not bothered. I got a supply of strips as well. She asked if I needed any lancets, but I said as there were ten in the pack, I wouldn’t need any more till 2020.😎

By the way, my glucose level after waking drifted down. (DF is in town). Libre said 4.5, “glucose going down”. Tee2 said 4.4. No argument there, then, but Libre wins for the additional information.:D
 
Clocked in for the day at 5.9.

Woke from a dream of fragrant freshly-baked crunchy-crust white continental bread & mangos. Got up & snarled at the cat, fed it some water and a piece of carrot.
 
Bakers Bun 6.1. Ironically, reverse that number and it's the final score after Charlton beat Sunderland today.
 
5.8 this a.m. - good enough.

I've been trying to get a handle on the elusive DP. After the 5.8 reading I took meds, took a shower, drank some water & generally pfaffed around for 90 min. At that point my read was 7.0, and down from that a bit later. That seems to be pretty much the way it normally goes.

Not worth stressing about right now, I suppose.

Thank you for,this quote Lin. It reminded me that I have a completely free day today though I had a bad night thinking about a horrendously busy week ahead. I can just kick back now and make the most of it!
I’m in east Kent as well and it looks like another hot one. Hope you enjoy it too. Not out of bed yet so no idea what my level is this morning but looking forward to my bacon and eggs on toast - a once a week treat!
