Group 7-day waking average?

Morning. It seems I must have been the only one who got a glorious day yesterday, suncream and parasol were the order of the day, well until 3 pm when the heavens opened just as I left the hospital! Then it was sunny again just as quick. A normal 6.6 today for me. Originally we had planned to go and see the Antiques Roadshow being filmed at Lytham in Lancashire, I was really looking forward to it but the weather forecast was dire so decided against it yesterday, which was just a as well as Mr Eggy got a phone call at 7am to say his mother was on the way to hospital after having a funny turn. So he is off up there. I’m sure she’ll be fine, she is 82 and in good health usually. Just a little faint, most probably an infection or such like. Anyways the weather isn’t good here today, very dull and windy. Back to normal then. 🙂

Oh dear! I hope your MIL is ok @eggyg
 
Good morning 3.9, 3 JB`s and a Rich Tea biscuit soon sorted that out, 3.3 an hour later.:(:( Reduced last nights Basal by 2 units good job I did,🙄 never mind another fun day.:D

Fair comment @Hazel, always brush teeth wash hands and face before bed.🙂

Good luck @Northerner hope you feel better.🙂

Good luck at Docs Stitch.🙂

Thanks for your concerns for yesterday, try and stay dry, take care.🙂
 
Oh dear Ted, @KARNAK ! :( How nerve frazzling AND sore for your poor fingers: testing every hour! 😱

Been there, done that, got the tee-shirt! 🙄:confused:

Hope you find a solution soon! Fingers crossed emoji! And a 🙂 to keep your spirits up!
 
03:56 BS 8.8. Oh dear! :( I’d obviously under bolused for last evening’s beans on toast & cup of tea with milk & honey then! Ah well, a wee bit extra bolus with brekkie today then, overnight slowed cooked chicken casserole so, that’s +4 as casserole first thing in the morning needs a bit extra anyway: could, & probably should, wait to eat it later in the day but, don’t even ATTEMPT to resist though & eat it right away; definitely NOT a saint! 😳😱:D😛

There’s one little birdie attempting to start a chorus but, the other birdies ain’t playing along: too early for them, perhaps? 🙄:D It was a wee bit brighter yesterday & although it didn’t rain it was humid! Too early yet to tell what today’s going to be like! 🙄

Another early Good Morning to you all & stay Sunny on the inside or you CAN grumble, if you like, & be a bit more like our beloved acerbic, darker forum pal, @mikeyB , who I now know is REALLY trying to be his own version of my sunny on the inside attitude: to each; their own! 😉

I think I’ll just add +3 bolus for the casserole as I don’t want to overdo it & end up making myself hungry which can happen if I over correct! 🙄
 
Good morning 🙂 6.3 for me today. I was 4.3 before bed so had a jelly baby and a biscuit. Woke around 3 hours after going to bed feeling a bit odd, so got up and tested - 3.8! How can that happen about 9 hours after my last injection? 🙄
 
5.7 this morning.
Got appointment to see DN today god only knows what surprise she is going to spring on me today.
Then got loss adjuster from insurance company coming to see me this afternoon, after having a flood in my kitchen getting damage repaired by one of their contractors, only for them not to connect washing machine properly and its flooded my kitchen again.
I realy am not happy.

Oh dear! @emmgeo , I KNOW about trying to wrangle money from insurers! 😱 Remember a REALLY cold Winter in recent ish past few years? When the jet stream, for some reason, got diverted away from our British waters & there were record breaking cold temps. of -25? The radiator in one of the bedrooms burst it's pipes & flooded the whole room & everything had to be replaced. It took SO long to get money as the mediator argued the price of everything: took until the start of March before we finally got about 75% of the money back as we'd already bought & replaced things in the January sales! :(😡

I hope your claim doesn't take so long or as much hassle from the mediator assigned to you! 🙄 Fingers crossed emoji!

Dont worry, I am not happy the kitchen is less than 3 years old and cost me £19000 when it was new and fitted.
I wont take any c**p from him, he will be wise not to upset me.
 
Good morning all. Perishing here, is it really June? Well, it's not flaming! 😡

7.7 @ 6.53am for me.
 
Morning all, s 7.8 got me today.
 
Morning folks! 🙂

So it's been fab this morning, woke up 3.8, bag of drumstick squashies and 15 minutes 4.0 thought I'd be ok as usually keep rising about 20 minutes later 3.8 so another bag of squashies, 15 minutes later 4.6 so injected for breakfast and only gave it 10 minutes, we'll see how the day goes but not feeling great, haven't even been on the cross trainer since last Friday so god knows what the cause is :(

Seems to be settling here as was wild and windy when I got up but much calmer now, no rain as of yet

Hope you all have a lovely day! :D
xx

Morning all, 5.8 here.
@Northerner, that sort of impossible hypo usually happens to me at night after a heavy stint of gardening the previous day, but I can’t believe you’ve managed that in this weather!

There was certainly no gardening going on yesterday! 😱 Perhaps it was related to the walk to the hospital and back, but that's only 4 miles round trip? Who knows! My evening novorapid should have been well spent by then - I even started injecting in my abdomen a few years back because I realised the insulin was absorbing too slowly from my behind and causing exactly this kind of hypo! 🙄
