Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning, it's a 9.4 after a repeat of my previous and ongoing unsuccessful Jaffa cake experiment 🙄🙂

Braving the shops for a new lamp as mine went up in a puff of smoke a few nights back, finding the right bulb is another matter - whatever happened to 60W and 100W ? :confused: I knew how bright they'd be !

Have the best day you can all 🙂
 
Morning all and a 4.7 for me

Looks quite nice outside. Trip to the pharmacy first thing on the agenda. Let's see what's missing from the prescription this time.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning my lovelies

Rather odd goings on for me, was 10.4 before tea last night so took my 3 units for my food and half unit correction, had me down in the 5's and man I felt awful, felt low all night, yes I've been higher than ideal the last week or 2 but not higher than 10 apart from this occasion, woke to 4.6 and still feeling awful, I'll be high by lunch nae doubt as wasn't risking my 3 units for breakfast so just jabbed 2.5, was supposed to be taking a trip to Lidl but don't think I will be :(

Got a new spare NovoPen Echo, was hoping for the red but got the blue again :( lol and to top a bad week off the kettle went and broke as the tatties were needing put on for tea last night! Hopefully the next few weeks will be better! 🙂

Hope everyone has a nice day!! 🙂 xx

I keep asking for a red one and they always give me blue! 😱 🙄
 
Morning. A gorgeous sunny day, two days in a row! 6.7 today, I’ll take that. No plans as such, washing out on the line and generally just pottering about. Just how I like it. Have a smashing Saturday. 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.0 here. That'll be the glass of red wine I saved to have last night after picking daughter up from the bus stop in Woodstock. (Buses to our village are scarce after 9pm). It occurred to me as I was driving to meet her that Colin Dexter called one of his Inspector Morse books ‘Last bus to Woodstock' and it involved a grisly murder or three. Anyway, there she was safe and sound.
 
08:34 BS 6.4. 🙂 I’m ok with that since I had a long lie in this morning, it IS the weekend!:D

Yesterday was still grey but, a bit warmer & I sat in the conservatory trying to read GOT on kindle & the TV show DID indeed stick very true to the book to start with anyway. I got the set of 5 kindle books & will be reading them for some time!🙄

Then, in the afternoon when, despite the grey clouds, it got too hot in the conservatory I moved back into the house & spent the rest of the day having loads of fun obsessively playing golf on the iPhone. Did I mention I’m golf mad: I LOVE playing golf games & Golf Clash on the iPhone or iPad is VERY addictive: I played hole after hole, match after match from 4pm to about 2am; even JUST slipped into a hypo when I forgot to eat dinner as I kept putting it off to keep playing, because I kept winning!😱😳 I only stopped when I was about to win another match with a putt when my hands started to shake & I mis hit the ball to lose. I tested & my BS was 3.6 so, had a very late dinner 9.5 hours after lunch!:confused: Then, back to more golf until exhaustion finally kicked in!😱

I CAN get VERY obsessive about golf games & haven’t played in over a year & just all of a sudden decided to play a bit, I in italics thought, but, clearly it’s something that very quickly become out of control! So, no more golf today!😱

I suppose I’m excited about The Open coming up at Royal Portrush later this summer & can’t wait to see all the top players in the world up close!😛:D😎 Jumping up & down duracell bunny in excitement emoji!😱:D

Crikey! I’m loquacious again!😱

I’ll stop gabbing now & wish you all a Very Good Morning with a day full of sunshine inside & out!😉

Whew! Wiping brow emoji! “Has she FINALLY finished talking yet?”🙄
 
I keep asking for a red one and they always give me blue! 😱 🙄
annoying isn't it? I mean we have to live with this condition, they could at least give us the option to accessorize it how we want! :D to be honest I'm just glad I finally got a new spare lol, on the plus side the Libre wallet I sent away for almost a month ago arrived today along with 20 Tegaderm from eBay for covering my sensors 🙂 xx
 
Good morning 3.7 on a glorious day,🙂 the beech is crowded and its 22.C on the balcony. Welcome to the forum @Dudette1 nice to have you on board.🙂

Got to do some Lidl shopping @Kaylz, anything I can get you?🙂

Enjoy your weekend folks, stay safe.🙂
 
Good morning everyone🙂

Had a great evening yesterday. Red Hot Chilli Pipers at Clitheroe Grand, which isn’t the world’s biggest venue - I don’t suppose there could be much more than 300 people there. Very efficient with wheelchairs. There’s a special cordoned off area behind the sound desk, so best view. Apparently the guys just like coming here - they are stadium fillers in Scotland these days. Probably the best stomping feelgood show you could ever get. Everyone left with a smile on their face.🙂

Anyway, I woke in the night for a wee and found I was 3.5, so a little correction needed. Woke up again at 11.15, needing at touch of CBD to get out of bed with a score of 7.2.

Today is day of rest, watching cricket and footie, feet up and only moving for bodily functions and cooking. Not simultaneously, of course.:D

Have a good day everyone, it’s trying to be summer, so catch some sun if you can.🙂
 
Was told that performers like the Grand because when it was refurbished the man in charge had considerable foresight and had a top end, studio quality, sound system installed. I was told that because of this a lot of "live" music is recorded there during concerts. Glad you enjoyed it.

Ohh why thanks my lovely, just a couple of packs of salami and some cheese please :D If i don't get up for it tomorrow I'll just go in when I'm on my way home from the Dr's on Tuesday as I'll be passing the end of the road it's on anyway 🙂 xx

Yes, the guy who was helping me with the lift told me about that, after he accidentally took me down to the basement where all the flashy kit lives. Great sound, for sure.
 
Late to post. 5.7 at 0545 so was ok to drive. Did a car boot sale to sell hand knit baby clothes. Really cold. Really quiet an so sales although stuff is lovely. Came home freezing so had a lazy afternoon
 
8.4 which is amazing for me.
Just trying to work out my escape route through the Velo Birmingham cycle route. Appears we’re locked in now!
Have a great day folks xx
