Group 7-day waking average?

mikeyB said:
Good morning all🙂

Same as yesterday. In normal range all night, 8.3 to fuel getting out of bed. If that’s the norm now, I’ll boost the evening Levemir a tad. Or not bother, it’s bound to change anyway. That’s D.🙄

So, off to the Rovers this afternoon. Bit breezy, but I lived on the Isle of Mull, this is winter and early spring routine weather. It’s about time everyone else got to share. It was fun going down into the village yesterday afternoon. As I was driving the scooter, I heard a flute-like noise behind me. What that was was the wind blowing across the adjustment holes in my crutches. Found music - weird🙂

Have a good day everyone, watch out for wobbly trees and empty flying bins.:confused::D

Hope Rovers have the following wind for both halves! 🙂
 
There was no wind in the stadium, but it was still a grim 0-1 defeat. One game in Scotland was abandoned due to high winds- the goalkeeper took a goalkick, it went in the right direction, but was blown out for a corner kick. That’s when the ref decided it was unplayable. Wimps.😱:D
 
Can’t remember waking number and can’t be bothered looking. Up at nine but sick as a dog last night, maybe the increase of antidepressants.
Out today, and did 11000 odd steps and right hip painful for some reason. What an old crock

I hope you feel better today
 
Good morning folks, woke up much earlier to 6.8 with a wriggly worm on my graph.
Hope you all have a good day

I am about to jab my tum and thigh, then as it’s Sunday , I have the weekly job of filling up both our pill boxes for the week then it should just about be ok for me to have brekkie .
 
Well my meter has lost it’s 5....and it’s 6 today! 7.5! Takeaway, although had it very early with the grandchildren so succumbed to fruit malt at 9ish! 😳 Up early today, already had full English and we are off to the very glamorous South Shields ( well that’s where Cheryl Tweedie/ Cole/ Versini-Fernandez/ Tweedie is from so it must be) to pick up some floor tiles as our local Wikes has stopped selling them and it’s collection only. Ah well, nice day for a run up the A69 and A1! Have a smashing Sunday all. 🙂
@Carolg hope you’re feeling much better today.

Morning all. Looked out front window, sunny and dry. Looked out back window- frosty. I know my house is deceptively long, but .....

I do thanks @Northerner .
Saw GP on Friday. Another fit note for 2 months, so trying to get more structure to my time. On plus side diabetes is behaving a bit better.
It’s a long haul
 
10:43 BS 8.2. Headed in the right direction.🙂 Just sitting down to breakfast now after being on the go since I got up.

Lovely sunshine today!😎:D

Got a call from my sister in law & eldest brother, while cooking eggs, to wish me a belated Happy New Year. They’re back from London visiting my grandneice. They wanted to take me out to Macdonalds, in the next town 8 miles away but, I said breakfast is almost done anyway. They’re coming for a visit later.

I bid you all a great day full of sunshine inside & out!😛:D😎 I’m tucking into brekkie now!😉
 
Good morning 5.9🙂after a huge spike yesterday evening.:( A friend of mine (yes there is one) made up a sort of Chinese stew which tasted lovely but BS went from 7.1 to 15.9😱 even with 8u of Bolus. More NovoRapid brought it down to 7.7🙄, lamb & veg today I know I`m safe with that.

Glad you are feeling better @Carolg.🙂

Speak with you later gang, enjoy your day.🙂
 
Good morning gang🙂

Where did the wind go? Lovely bright day here in the Valley. Good job, I need to get into the village to get some bread. Can’t be arsed making any, Sunday is a day of rest. Like every other day:D

Woke up on 4.9, after an odd night including 3.00am JBs. No change in meds, must have been a late result of the exertions and suffering at Ewood Park yesterday afternoon.🙄

Anyway, I see that Transport Secretary Chris Grayling is under pressure to resign - or be sacked- after his Ramsgate ferry contract with the company that has no ships has collapsed. Just goes to show, no matter how stupid, incompetent and useless you are, you can still become a minister in parliament. There’s hope for us all. 🙂

Phew, managed a political comment without mentioning the word Brexit.

Oh bugger...:D

Have a good day everyone

That’s come down nicely, then. The Chinese like flavours to be balanced & it’s quite common to use just as much sugar as salt in dishes: balance. You don’t really taste the sugar but, it’s put in to round out the flavours. I grew up watching my mum cook & she nearly always put in some sugar in every dish, even in things you wouldn’t think had any!
 
Thankyou @Lanny I wondered although they all know about the big D and sugar is a no no.🙄 We all take it in turns to cook, 6 of us and record what my BSLs are with each meal then adjustments can be made accordingly.😎

Ah, it’s nice that they’re learning too. It was a learning curve for me when I became diabetic but, I learnt a new balance & re-educated my taste buds: minimal salt that doesn’t need sugar to balance. There’s also a Chinese rhyme I’ll try my best to translate: “For natural sweetness; add salt”. Particularly true for meat in soups! The seasoning I use the most in cooking is black pepper & hardly use salt at all: only if I want to bring out the natural sweetness of something!
 
Good morning folks. Went to bed on 6.3 and woke up on the same that’s the first time that’s happened to me.
Hope you all have a good day
