Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning folks. 6.3 today
Hope you all have a good day
 
Morning lovelies, 8.6 for me. We are doing exciting stuff like planting out potatoes - I have 2 potato grow bags for the patio, it’s all very exciting as I’ve never tried growing anything more complicated than a tomato before.
 
Straight 10 this morning. Dreaming of HS before chemo next week .... ho hum!
Have a great Saturday everyone xx
 
5.5 in the middle of the night and 6 first thing this morning.

The low fours or not the low fours today? That is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to face the slings and arrows of outrageous pricking or place arms around a sea of carbohydrate......
 
Morning all. Back in the sixes, just, 6.8. Had a no cough night! After yesterday, when I actually thought I was going to vomit as I coughed so much, I’m very pleased. I almost feel “ normal” today. Whatever that is! Have a superb Saturday and watch out for Freya. She’s heading our way this afternoon so will batten down the hatches just in case. 🙂
 
6.7 this morning. I woke up later than usual.
 
Good morning, dare I say it another HS,🙂 didn`t have any overnight basal checked at 03:00 4.1 a couple of JBs just in case.🙄

Some blighter has given me a sore throat and rapid fire sneezes, have they no respect? 😉:(

Not in our lifetime @Flower.🙂

Have a great day folks.

Congratulations on the HS! 🙂 I think you must be getting all the ones I used to get - wait till I get my hands on that Fairy! 😱 🙂
 
05:35 BS 9.1.:( A bit higher than yesterday’s waking 20:52 BS 8.5. VERY stormy night! Storm had already arrived earlier in the day & started building up through the day! Shoulder was achey & my nerves were tingling a bit intermittently but, kept applying the arnica gel to control the shoulder pain. So, nerves never got to the “screaming their heads off” stage of last time! Whew! Swiping hand across forehead, in relief emoji!

My sleeping pattern is more or less back again after getting a little bit of sleep around 2/3am after my afternoon snooze until nearly 9pm. I’ve done the Time Machine backup & it only took 9 hours this time: apparently it takes less time if you don’t do anything else on the mac while it’s running; slept through it & learnt this!🙄

I’ve gotten to grips to the new OS very fast & I love the new apps that are the same as on the iOS of the iPhone & iPad: syncs much better across the devices & I wished I’d upgraded sooner! I learnt something new from Apple support that all new OS’ when they come out are free, had to buy them before, as macs no longer come with the 2CD’s, to install & restore, with the OS on it. Which I already noticed when I bought it in 2014 but, knew how to reboot, Apple support, using internet recovery after my phone scam in Feb. 2015: ironically installed spyware when scammers said they were BT telling me to install virus protection! It was still the same OS then, just before the new OS came out! So, assumed THAT’S how to restore to the original OS if I ever needed to. What I didn’t know is that there are 3 modes of internet recovery:- installing the original OS that came with the mac; installing the latest OS & installing the latest OS that’s compatible; at some point the new OS won’t be compatible! So, I will now keep my OS on the MacBook Pro up to date, as I do on the phone & pad, as there is no reason not to!🙄

I THOUGHT I was an old hand that knew macs well as I’ve been using them since 1987, my older brother’s classic 1984 original bought 2nd. hand, & this is my 5th. mac: 6 mac’s since 1987! But, this old dog learnt a new trick!🙄

I’m not doing much today, it’s blowing a storm out there, & going to have a duvet day! I wish you all an easy, lazy Sunday with sunshine on the inside!🙂
 
A very early Sunday for me, been awake since 5, the dreaded cough woke me, tried to suppress it so as not to wake Mr Eggy but to no avail so got up to read my book. Forgot to take my BGs and they have now risen to 7.8 at 6.30! Ah well, sausage in the oven already, I’m starving, sausage, bacon and egg coming up. Well it is Sunday after all. 🙄 Have a good one.

BS 7.8 with DP! Sigh!:( I’d be happy with that as my waking BS. But, pain takes its toll! My waking BS has been going up & down, snakes & ladders, with the shoulder pain!🙄 Get well soon, @eggyg 😉
