Group 7-day waking average?

Morning All, it's a 6.5 for me this morning with an weekly average of 5.6 so after three weeks of been in the 6's for my weekly average I'm back in the 5's
 
And just checked BG again and now it’s 5.0 - checked twice and got the same result. Only difference was the paracetamol and ibuprofen I’d taken earlier so whatever it is I’m confident it’s nothing serious.
 
Morning all,
5.5 for me today, happy with that!
Iceland delivery today ...

Have a blessed day everyone,
Snowwy
 
5.3 this early (for me) morning. So near.

Glad the levels are behaving @ColinUK and hope the painkillers get to work.
The washing machine looks very sparkly @Kaylz
Video appointments seem very useful, hope it goes well @mikeyB

Another grey day so some dyeing today so that I can get weaving a baby blanket next week.

How many babies does it take to make a whole blanket? Lol
 
Morning all 8.9 today.

I slipped over yesterday walking in the rain and landed on what used to be my good hip. Two kind people helped me up as I was stuck lying on the pavement with my leg in a cast. I’m super achey and black & blue. Pavements, crutches, rain and slippy drain covers do not like me. Diabetes can also leave me alone please!

Snazzy washing machine @Kaylz, any favourite cycles as yet?🙂

I hope you’re all doing ok, stay upright if you possibly can, it’s the best way 🙂
 
Morning

Well Bruce managed to get the transit bolts off the washing machine so did its first cycle load free last night in prep for todays wash, its so quiet compared to any others we’ve had, I love it! Lol, mum registered it last night too so that’s 1 year labour and 10 years parts cover

Bruce is off to Lidl to do his own and my shopping, hopefully he’ll manage to get everything for the third week in a row! He’s even moodier than usual at the moment though as he’s had toothache for the last couple of weeks

Anyways its a 7 for me, higher than what I’m used to but didn’t sleep great and have a bit of a sore tummy

Have a nice day whatever you are doing and stay safe!

Firstly sorry to hear you've had another slip/trip/fall, your having no luck whatsoever with those atm, I blame those new trainers you purchased! Just rest up and take it easy and I hope you recover/feel better soon!

Not yet it will do its first load of washing later so not sure what mum will be trying out first
xx
 
4.8 this morning for me. 🙂
Oh, and I can't believe its one (leap) year since I joined this forum community. I now consider all the regulars on this thread as my extended family. So thank you one and all for providing me with not only support and advice but also hours of fun and laughter. 😛

Stay safe and well.

Morning good peeps. 😛 4.9 here.

Aw, ow, ouch @Flower. 😳 Poor you, pesky pavements. Hope your aches and pains shove off asap.

We ventured out for the second day in a row yesterday. I can remember how to drive! :DWent to our local garden centre and bought a ton of plants. Planning on spending the whole day in the garden, weather-permitting. And, according to the Senedd, in two weeks I can visit my mum...life is goooood.

Hope ev1’s doing ok.
 
Morning all. I’ve had a lie in! A very nice 5.8 for me. I swear down that the home grown tatties don’t have any carbs! That’s three times we’ve had them and three times in the fives ( one a HS). Guess what’s for tea tonight?
Baking day today ( oops, there goes the fives) for our social distanced garden afternoon tea tomorrow for Fathers Day/ Mr Eggy’s 60th. The weather isn’t brilliant. Gazebo anyone? Have a super Saturday everyone, it’s lovely here at the moment. 🙂

So sorry to hear about your fall @Flower :( Gentle {{{HUGS}}} May all your future walks be dry ones! 🙂 Hope you are feeling better soon, take care 🙂

I felt bad liking your post, I meant I didn’t like it but you know what I mean. Hope you aren’t too achy for too long. New rubber tips for your crutches required, super dooper slip proof? Take care.
 
A 5.8 from me. Lovely to see the washing machine finally @Kaylz going to pick up my new (to me) car today and also do some more decorating. I love reading about everyone's days on here. Sorry to hear about the woody with your dog @Michael12421 we lost ours in similar circumstances and got a call at 3 in the morning. Some lovely people waited with her for half an hour whilst we went to pick her up. IMG_20200527_165128092.jpg
 
@Flower OMG the pavements in your area do seem to come up and bite you on a regularly basis, do hope you are ok and feeling a little better.
@Kaylz - machine looks great, so glad it has at long last arrived and performing, what a relief for you and Bruce - PS how is bubbles behaving himself?
6.5 for me today after a difficult day yesterday but with a lovely twist at the end. Was kept busy as am selling things on our local sites, collected some new duvet covers from someone who was selling and one of our neighbours who has dementia had a visit from the local dementia cafe musical team who played for her and lots of us neighbours who joined in with dancing etc, it was lovely and she really enjoyed it. For some reason I kept crying during the day, not really sure why, possibly because this week is the anniversary of both of my parents passing, my dad 13 years and my mum 27 or maybe because my care (not D) has now been transferred to London and it is just making it all seem ‘big’ in my head. I don’t know just a bit of a low day I think. THEN my son and family come round and we have a takeaway and a couple of drinks (socially distanced of course) who after about an hour gives me a card, my daughter in law makes them, thanking us for what we do for them and with some money inside. He had managed to pull off a great deal and wanted to give us something to celebrate his success. We couldn’t have been more surprised or more proud of him. After a few minutes of telling him we don’t want nor need it we had to give in graciously. What a lovely thing to do but I admit I did cry again but what a lovely feeling hearing such heartfelt words from my son, made me think I’m doing okay!!
Anyhow just wanted to share that with you
Have a good day everyone x
 
You're right @Kaylz ! I would have been better off keeping the pink, sparkly Cinderella high heels. That's twice I've hit the ground since wearing those sensible trainers.🙂
Flower you can have my spare pair 🙂
