Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all 6.8 today, so far away from my HS the other day. Beautiful sunny morning so far here and got a busy day ahead. Having an antibody test later so have to go into work for that, not that I think I have had it but they want all staff to be tested.
My Dyson has conked out and hubby has taken it to bits and put it back together but no suction at all. Have washed the filters but if that doesn’t work don’t know what to do, don’t want to have to buy a new one. Popping in to see my daughter and family and finish packing and clearing up.
Hope you all have a good day x
 
Morning all,
5.3 this morning... so close!
Seems the 5's are popular with some, who remembers the film 'short circuit' I think 5 was a popular number their too!

Have a blessed day everyone, Snowwy
 
Morning all and 6 on the dot for me. Upper the levemir by a unit last night and a lovely flat line overnight.

Day off today but won't be venturing far and it doesn't look like it's going to be a gardening day. Nevermind sings to write and I'm sure jobs will be found.


Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning

Well its dull, wet and cold here again, had the heating on twice yesterday for one hour bursts, been on this morning too, well seems even if I do pluck up courage to the leave the house I wont be entering any shops, I cant stand anything covering my nose and mouth (personal reasons before anyone jumps on me) and its becoming mandatory to wear a face covering in shops :(

Anyway an unexplainable 7.2 for me this morning but not too concerned, its hardly surprising given the fact I haven't relaxed in goodness knows how long

Have a nice day and stay safe folks
xx
 
5.3 on sensor for me this morning. 4.6 with finger prick. Double checking atm as new sensor yesterday went haywire, showing LO for a long time while finger pricks showing 4.6. Later, seemed to right itself but not having a lot of confidence in it, hence the finger prick. Graph now shows i had a very long hypo when i didn't. Abbot sending a replacement and i need to send this one back. Have a good friday everyone
Good job i'm double checking after everything seemed to right itself. Sensor said i was over 5 and good to drive to work. Finger prick said 3.7 hypo! Think its going to be one of those days. Have had to ring and say i'll be late
 
I've took my bloods as normal this morning did everything the same way but I've got what looks like a bleed under the skin (looks like a blood blister) is this normal every so often ?
 
Another morning 🙄 and a 5.0, I must put the carbs down and drop BG abit more. One day I 'will' get my BMI into the normal range 🙂.
I still find the hardest carbs to avoid are the beautiful carbs cooked up for the kids that they dont eat. Avoiding them is one thing but thowing the tasty stuff away is tricky 🙂.
 
5.3 for me this dull and grey Friday morning. 🙂
I'm a bit late reporting in as the PC decided to do a long update of windows which crashed the system and I had to repair it. 😡
Fingers crossed, I think it's back to normal.
Stay safe and well.

Morning all a 4.5 this morning.
Have a good day everyone. Thankfully it’s Friday.
 
Yay for another The Last Ship fan! I’m only just starting season 3, are you up to date or just setting sail?
Lol, just setting sail, in fact I have to wait till I'm with my daughter, she'll figure out the techy side of it. I wish everything could just be on the Beeb!

No bg for me today, dawn till dusk piggery yesterday forbids me even trying to get any blood out...

Baz has it gone down any? I hope you get it sorted, sounds nasty.

Sue that is too posh to be called a van! :D

I've never had it but I wouldn't say its impossible but then again its possible something else caused it and you just didn't realise at the time xx
 
Morning all a 5.1 this morning. Have been busy baking as it is my mum's 80th birthday and my parents are coming to stay under the new rules! Can't wait, haven't seen them since Christmas! Am still constructing her stained glass garden sculpture, but have managed to finish two cushions for her. Sorry about the feet!IMG-20200702-WA0001.jpeg

Nice shed by the way.:D

Nice cushions @stephknits.🙂

Take care folks stay safe.🙂

Those cushions are amazing. How did you make them? Tapestry, felting? However it was you could easily sell them.
