Group 7-day waking average?

Not surprisingly, I know Mumbles well. Family lived in Newton for a while late 1960s but I'd stayed in Llanelli, so only visited.

Proposed to my first wife on the beach at Rotherslade Bay.

Newton? My mum still lives there. Probably know you!
 
I really hoped and prayed that it would work out this time as I just don’t have the strength to go through this again. The first time shattered my heart. But twice??
Stay strong merrymunky, my heart goes out to you.
 
03:31 BS 6.7. Ok with that! 🙂 Couldn’t get back to sleep after midnight Levemir alarm & finally gave up! Already a bit of DP? 🙄

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

Restarted the inhalers routine & my breathing is in need of it as I’m a bit short of breath, not laboured just noticeably shorter than of late. So, a good wake up call, as it were! 🙄 Last night was definitely nippy & I snuggled up under my quilt in bed for over 3 hours after midnight: nice & toasty; getting hungry though so, definitely no more sleep until I’m fed! 😱 Can snooze after food! 🙄

I completely forgot to mention the last few days, my memory especially short term isn’t as good since I turned 38 9 years ago, An interesting fact I picked up, somewhere from reading a lot, your IQ, on average, reaches its peak at age 35 & after that, it’s a steady decline! 😱🙄 I used to have a really good memory & I started noticing my short term memory getting easily distracted from age 38 & it’s getting worse! 😱😳

I got an appointment letter to see the orthopaedics guy on 27/08/19 now after the xrays & MRI. So, he can give me the verdict on possibilities going forward: injections to the neck, surgery or, worse case scenario, neither is possible! Nail bitingly anxious wait: Damocles waiting for the sword to drop on my head! 😱🙄 MUST try not to think about it TOO much! 🙄
 
7.4 with no dips into hypo territory as steady line on libre overnight, checked bg at 2.30 just to be sure. Rain set in for the day, widespread according to news channel.

Lanny, you take care my friend and good luck at appointment.

merrymunky, sorry for your loss, take care.
 
Morning ( I think it is, it’s still dark) all. A 6.9 on a very wet, miserable day. Looks like set for the weekend, two country shows going on in the area this weekend, which I would imagine are going to be a complete washout. But that’s the British summer for you, I don’t know why we’re surprised. We’ve got the grandkids today, film club I think, no walks or garden activities that’s for certain. Have a fab Friday and don’t forget your raincoat, wellies and brolly! 🙂
 
Sorry to bring the thread down but I feel I should tell you all that I’m having another miscarriage. My heart is broken.
So sorry to hear this. Be strong.
 
Woken up to a 5.7

It’s going to be another tough day. I have the scan this morning which was supposed to be a viability and dating scan. Now it will be a confirmation of miscarriage scan. I don’t know how strong I am going to be but right now the game face is on as I have to get myself ready.

I don’t know why my life is turning out like this. I’m 39, diabetic, still on the obese side of things (though dropping weight still), 2 baby losses behind me. I’ve lost so much more than babies. As a result my work life has suffered to the point I feel completely unneeded. I’ve lost friends. I’ve lost my confidence. I’ve now lost all hope. This baby was my tiny glimmer of hope. The light at the end of a tunnel which has disappeared again.

I don’t know what to do.
 
Good morning folks 🙂

DC adapter finally arrived yesterday morning so backlight and projection now on full time on my clock, looks great too, needing to get my hair cut soon (shaved side stays shaved but wouldn't trust my mum to cut the longer side lol) but I've been thinking I want a small star shaved into the shaved side, not sure my hairdresser does that though so we'll have to see

Anyways it's a 6.8 for me this morning, dull, cool and spitting on rain but apparently it's set to get worse 🙄

Have a lovely day folks! :D
xx
 
8.8 this morning after falling off the wagon yesterday with this bug and eating digestive biscuits and a chicken wrap thing from a takeaway. Found a new wagon today to climb aboard.

send you hugs and thinking about you on this difficult day Merry.
