Group 7-day waking average?

@ColinUK How are you doing? Haven't seen you since Monday. Hope you are well and court case is going in your favour.
 
I get the impression that it is quite a common problem with T1.
My thumb’s on the way there. I can’t decide if I want it to get stuck straight or bent! 🙄
 
4.8 this am. 🙂
Phrase of the year - "I can't get a slot!" 😡

Stay safe and well (and warm).

Morning all,
A break from the 5.3's with a 5.6!
@MeeTooTeeTwo LoL... 'I can't get a slot' ... so true!

Anyhoo VE day celebration in front garden later with promise of the Spitfire flypast... both my parents were RAF during the war so this will bring memories to many I am sure... epic!

Have a blessed BH,
Snowwy

Morning and happy VE day to all.
Was 9.8 this morning but im ok with that, anything in single digits I'll take at the moment as still taking baby steps.

Morning

Well called Abbott around 8am yesterday and was warned that due to the current situation my call may be answered by someone out with Europe, didn’t catch his name but wherever he was from we were both having trouble with each other sorted and replacement was issued though, don’t even want this one back and told to just dispose of it - update it received an email at 10:32pm last night advising it was on the way (only just checked emails as I was typing this lol)

No mint kit kats as of yet but I’ve a shopping list to send to my dad’s GF later so hopefully more luck in Dundee’s Asda!

Anyways its a 5.3 for me this morning, off for an extra hot, extra long shower in a bit and then braving a sensor without a Tegaderm, wish me luck!
xx
 
Good luck Kaylz
 
Morning all, overnight trace looks like the himalayas. Despite reduced basal, I was low before bed, and had a snack, had a hypo at 3am which I thought I might have overtreated, but plummeted again after, and ended up at 5.7.
Found out why my GP wanted to speak to me. When you ring the surgery, you get a five minute recorded message with instructions on how not to bother them because they’re so busy. When you speak to a GP, she says, 'Oh while we’re so quiet we are trawling through records, and we’ve started with the Diabetics. Have you ever been offered a Statin? All Type 1s should be on them' and proceeded to harangue me for five minutes.
I did take the opportunity to get her to prescribe me some Ketone strips, though, so not all bad.

Morning all it’s a 6.8.

Good decision to go another way on my walk yesterday, I found a lovely golf course with a public path around it, just me lots of tweety birds and someone mowing the greens. Heading back today for another round!

Enjoy your distanced VE street party @Stitch147 🙂I’ve got a lovely picture of my Mum and Dad age14 at the same street party except they didn’t know each other then.

Hope everyone has a good day 🙂
 
Morning on this VE Day ( Victory for Eggy) a 6.5, better by a wee bit. As per usual, as it’s a Bank Holiday the weather is dank, damp and cold. Not that there’s any street parties where I live, the A6 isn’t a good road to hang bunting across! The 100s of wagons we get on a daily basis would soon pull that down. Oh the joys of living one mile from a motorway junction. Have a great day however you decide to spend it. 🙂
 
Very pleased to say that I’ve woken up at 9am with a lovely 5.2. I also managed to book a Tesco priority slot at 5.30am for three weeks time. Day would be perfect if I didn’t have a horrible cough - but I’m not worried about that being the virus because I haven’t left the house for nearly nine weeks 🙂
