Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning everyone🙂

I woke up on 7.2, absolutely nothing to do do with a post meal Magnum. Complete mystery:D

Whatever is going on in what passes for a government today is of no consequence. There’s a Test Match starting at Old Trafford. I expect it will be a draw, the weather will win, but that’s not the point. I’ll keep up with news by relying on news alerts from my watch. Sometimes with all this tech I think I’m living in a Star Trek movie.:confused:

Still don’t have a computer. I’m beginning to think Bowland IT are part of the NHS. Nice guys and ladies, but nerdy, so no concept of real time. Still, I’m not worried about that with a Test Match on. So it’s a day in the man cave, consuming cups of tea and zero sugar IrnBru. Caffeine rules:D

Have a good day folks, it’s a shower dodging day, but never mind, it’s only weather. 🙂
 
Follow up - computer is coming home at 13.00. Diagnosed with a graphics card problem, so that’s been replaced and it’s now working perfectly. Mind:D you, if I suddenly find I’m up to level 3 on Witcher 3 I’ll know what the delay has been:D
 
Good morning 8.3 no Basal last night and reduced this morning.🙄 The sun is shining temp. 23.5.C,😎 DSN at 07:10 tomorrow and Torbay hospital at 13:55 for Abdominal Ultrasound, good fun hey.🙂

Take care Alan and {{{HUGS}}}.

Has anyone heard from Lanny.

Have a great day folks, take care.🙂
 
No idea why but 7.2 this morning and rising as the day is going on. I am putting this down to stress as I hate flying which I will be doing on Sat, the office move which all the team expect me to be able to answer their every question and keep dumping all the items they find in their desks on my desk and get annoyed when I put it back on their desks and tell them to either pack it, bin it or find out how it should be disposed of, making it my problem is not an option. The usual stresses and strains of work. I am beginning to think I am better off not going on holiday if this is the stress it causes. Just take some leave and stay in bed might be a better option in the future. Sorry that turned into a major moan.
 
Afternoon all. 7.6 @ 7.32am / 7.8 @ 9.28am yesterday, 7.8 @ 6.50am the day before.

I'm doing fasting. A flat white around 10am and then dinner at 5ish. I'm eating whatever's going and sack it. I can't bear to think about food, or worry about my liver or the D. I'm just keeping to this and see how I go. Okay up to now. 🙂 Yesterday's dinner was a huge rump steak, new potatoes, mashed swede, a lot of pickled beetroot, Cauli, bit of gravy and I was 6.5 @ 11.21pm I've lost a bit of weight and my tum has gone down a tad.

I have to have another D review and more bloods. I only had one a few months ago I'm sure. What's the nurse going to say to me? They make all these plans ie weigh you regularly and keep an eye on your diet and send you to local leisure centre for exercise and then nothing is done. I'm jaded and blah. Will go but just keep stum, listen and make my getaway soon as.
 
Morning folks. Just in the sixes, 6.9. Dry start to the day, but I said that yesterday and it was very short lived, poured all day, felt so cold and miserable we lit the coal fire! Day at home today waiting for two tons of “decorative stones” or shillies as we call them up here. Should finish our newly landscaped garden and pond area off very nicely, but we need a dry day. Fingers crossed everyone please. Have a great ( dry) day if you can. 🙂
 
Good morning my lovelies 🙂

I see @Northerner hasn't posted yet, I hope your ok hunni!

Found out yesterday afternoon just how much chocolate my grandad eats and all I can say is I am absolutely horrified! He eats a 100g bar every single night in 1 sitting! He says it’s fine as it’s dark chocolate but it isn’t what the most of us here class as dark chocolate as it isn’t a certain % of cocoa and lists its first ingredient as sugar! And has a whopping 50.6g carbs per bar, that’s half of my daily carb intake! What annoys me most is the fact we cook and he often leaves a lot of it as he’s filled up on junk like cakes and biscuits but still goes on to eat the chocolate!

Anyway a 5.9 for me this morning and hoping my sportdirect order will be here tomorrow, I find it ridiculous that I can get things with free postage from elsewhere and receive it next day but a big company like them charges £4.99 delivery and cant pull their fingers out!

Have a great day folks! :D

Morning all on this, fingers crossed, dry day. A straight 7 for me, to be expected, rice last night and was 8.1 at bedtime. It’s our youngest daughter’s 27th birthday today. We won’t see her until Sunday when we’re having a family dinner to celebrate her birthday and also to say goodbye as we’re off on our travels the week after. Today is all about maintenance, haircut and colour and the waxing of my hirsute bits and pieces! Then lunch out with Mr Eggy. Have a good day everyone. 🙂
Enjoy the beautifying Elaine and the grand tour!! Take care and have a brilliant time xx
