Good luck tomorrow. Hope it’s all ok. I’ve got a few days grace still although I am going in to finish display boards tomorrow.

Thank you
 
Morning all,
5.6 this morning.
Went to visit a lady yesterday for coffee, she has a ministry in making ginger biscuits. She makes countless batches and then 'gives' them to those she feels drawn to. Sometimes the postman, sometimes a friend or neighbour, sometimes a delivery driver and sometimes just to cheer you up!
What a joy she is...
When we arrived, we were given not one, but two bags, the other being ANZAC biscuits which she now has the recipe for! I used to work with a girl from NZ so I have had these before, yum!
Need to watch the carbs though...

What a blessing this lady is 🙂

May you too be blessed, Snowwy
 
06:02 BS 8.9 but, not waking as I couldn’t sleep the whole night & only feel exhausted enough to, hopefully, sleep now? I’ve been awake for longer than 24 hours now as I woke yesterday morning, as posted, at 05:20, was tired & tried going back to sleep but, couldn’t drop off then, HAD to stay awake for shopping delivery & wanted to stay up to go to bed at a decent time but, it all backfired on me because I needed adrenaline to stay awake! It was duly released & I ended up being extremely “wired”! o_O Ohhh dear, in trying not to get my sleep too “out of whack” I’m now going to be REALLY “out of whack”!o_O🙄:D

An early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

I’m not completely “de-wired”, as it were, but, hopefully, soon & then, I’ll sleep round the clock!🙄o_O & An EXTREMELY wired duracell bunny emoji! Soon to be a smiley dropping from exhaustion with a stream of z’s emoji!😱:D😉
 
A pinch and a punch for the first of the month. Where’s time going.

I‘m off to my GP at 11:00 for a variety of bloods including HbA1c.

A 5.9 for me this morning.
 
A nice start to the month. :D

Stay safe and well everybody.

A 6.6 on this beautiful September morn. How the heck did that happen? 😱 It’s our youngest daughter’s birthday on Friday and in the past it’s also when I would start thinking about the C word, but now we have two grandchildren who have birthdays before Christmas, October and November, and I like to get those over with first. Considering the year we’ve had it’s flown in! Have a great day everyone and for those returning to school, whether as a member of staff or indeed a pupil, good luck.🙂
Congratulations @MeeTooTeeTwo on the HS.

First time reporting....5.6 this morning. Usually between 6 & 8. Why does it vary so? (I usually wake very early - around 4am and have a cup or two of builder's tea)

Welcome to the club. Your readings can vary for many different reasons, there’s a Y in the day, you’ve got a red t shirt on, it’s raining. Who knows? As you get to know us you’ll see we are all the same and scratch our heads every morning asking ourselves the same question. Of course if you’ve had a ton of carbs for your evening meal that’ll raise it, or conversely if you haven’t that can too! You’ll hear a lot about dawn phenomenon on here or DP, your body is raring to go and needs some glucose to get you started, so the liver helps by dumping some for you. AKA liver dump. Keep checking in and you’ll soon learn lots. Oh and by the way, a House Special or HS, is what we consider a near perfect reading on waking, 5.2. They are much coveted! See you tomorrow.
 
Morning everyone. 7.4 for me today. Not bad after loads of hypos yesterday.
Have a good day everyone
 
Morning

Well Bruce should be on the first bus now, 1 hour wait in the next town for the next one 🙄 dad seemed to manage to obtain his phone from home after 10pm last night so think there's been some porkies in that story but he's still in hospital

Anyways 4.7 waking and 4.5 before breakfast

Have a nice day and stay safe folks

Morning all, not been on for a few days as I spent a few days away in Norfolk. Anyway, it's a 7.9 for me today. Need to pick up Tigfa from the cattery soon. I miss her when she's there.
 
Morning all, 6.3 for me this morning. Good old Mr Madeline tracked down some batteries at the petrol station, I’d never have thought of there. Was a nice surprise as I’d no idea he was popping up, he collected Eldest Madeline on his way too, so I have all my family together for a few precious days.
