Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. A 6.8 for me today. Did have a very carb heavy day yesterday, but in my defence I was grafting. Helped Mr Eggy shift two ton of decorative stones from the front of our house, where it was dumped, around the back and up to the top of our 40 yard garden negotiating 5 steps! I surprised myself how handy I was with a wheelbarrow. Then I raked them into place and washed them down. I was in bed just after 9! Feel ok today, surprisingly. Time will tell. A more gentle day today, babysitting, just the one thank goodness, the others firmly ensconced back in school. Have a great day whatever you’re doing. Good luck with the eyes @khskel prescription sunglasses are the best thing I have ever bought. 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂

Hopefully sportsdirect order will arrive today so as I have to wait in mum is taking my sharps bin to the chemist to swap and pick up a prescription for me (don't worry I've not put her out of her way, she volunteers today and the chemist is only a few doors up from the charity shop) also waiting on the Feliway refill coming which hopefully arrives today as Bubbles has been a total nightmare the last few days as Bruce left it too long before he ordered it and the one we have ran out :(

Bruce picked up some Christmas wrapping paper for me last night while he was in the other town at the card factory, 3 rolls for £1! :D got gift tags on the way so as soon as they are here I'll start wrapping 🙂

6.5 for me to today

Have a great day folks! :D

What!!!!!! I haven’t even sorted out the secret Santa yet.
That’s a good reminder to get on with it. thanks Kaylz
 
Morning lovely people 4.9 for me today.

A noticeable drop in temperature when you get up these past mornings, brrr
 
5.8 this morning. Much better today, but then I have behaved better too!!
Um perhaps there is a link.

Libre 2 above throughout the night but level. Drank a big glass of water in case it is lack of hydration.
New sensor so perhaps this one is not planning to behave so well, however if it is consistently above at least I can use that. I have been wanting to be able to rely on the Libre more to replace fingerpricks. Not sure how reliable that will be at present.

I have 7 presents bought (although not all here as 3 are in the sportsdirect delivery I'm waiting on lol) I don't have anywhere to keep though so the sooner I can get them wrapped the better as then I can just put them in a bag and leave it sitting open, I even went and bought some cutter tool that can be left on the in use roll of wrapping paper to help it keep its shape etc xx
 
Good morning all. Not a great day yesterday started with 3.3 and a few lows during day. Went to bed before 10 pm then a 2.9 at around 1am. Not eating too well, and will tweak my insulin at tea time.

Slept till 0730 and 6.3 this morning. Have been overdoing things as getting new bedroom furniture. Old stuff being collected today. Having a chilled(sort of) day
 
Morning all. 7.9 for me today. New libre activated last night ready for Thames Path challenge tomorrow. Physio appointment this afternoon to see what they say about my foot. Off to Newcastle Monday for 4 nights for my training course, looking forward to it as I've not been there before.
 
only this year, although I am planning when we go Christmas shopping in November (not that I'll need much, if anything!) to grab a few rolls of wrapping paper and a couple of packs of gift tags so I'm prepared to start as soon as I start buying for 2020! :D I got Bruce 4 presents but I also have to get his birthday present at around Christmas time as well as it's the 20th January so too close to order anything after Christmas xx
 
6.2 this morning - definitely getting chillier in the mornings.
I checked out the central heating yesterday afternoon and bled the radiators.
Made a change bleeding something other than my poor fingertips. 🙂🙄
 
Good morning peeps🙂

I had a nice straight line overnight in mid range, with my usual morning drift down, so woke on 4.3. By the time of getting up and around, that dropped to 4.1. No worries, that allowed me a chocolate digestive with my double espresso🙂

Fitted my new sensor yesterday, working just fine compared to BG testing, so I’ve no need to bleed. That’s if I shave carefully, I’ve put a new blade in the razor. Ultra sharp German cold steel. Wilkinson don’t make razor blades in this country any more. Oh well, I’ve got a good stock in the event of a no deal Brexit:D

I have to go down into the village today, but finding a time to do that is tricky - sunshine and heavy showers. Don’t want to end up stranded with an electrical fault. That’s the scooter, not me🙂

Anyway, have a good day today, it’s POETS day🙂
 
I reckon that just goes with using the Libre, and takes about a week to settle in to the correct arm, and then...
:D
