Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all 10.9 today, went to bed on 10.4 which is unusually high so corrected, thought best to check thru night so set alarm for 3, it was 10.7 so corrected again expecting it to be the same on waking, feel fine so looks like infusion site issue. Off to Newcastle, weather doesn't look promising.
 
Morning folks 🙂

Feeling slightly down as coming up to 4 weeks I've been feeling stuffy now :( hopefully I'll shake it off soon

6.2 for me this morning

Have a great day :D

Good morning . It’s dull and grey here with slightly more breeze than usual. I’ve got to be brave and venture out from my lovely warm house , it’s bin day today and silly me forgot to take the rubbish bin for its by weekly visit to the pavement yesterday.

Around 5, I woke suddenly for an urgent wee, not a good sign that so did a horizontal scan 6.8 phew , went back to bed for a little lie in and was most surprised when I woke up that I had managed another sleep, that’s unusual for me too. 5.8

I hope you all have a good day.

6.0 this morning and back to normal.
Thanks everybody for your birthday wishes both here and on the other thread. :D
I'm pleased to say @SB2015 that I am getting another prezzie.
An updated version of my FitBit Smart watch but it's not released until next week
so I'll just have tio wait.:(
Good news is, it's got Alexa built in, so when I have to go for my retinopathy scan
I can wear my dark shades and talk into my sleeve like I'm with the CIA. 😎
 
Morning all. Lie in today. Too much bottoming I think! A very nice 6, deliberately lowered my carbs big style yesterday and along with some gardening, it seemed to do the trick. After a very wet and windy start, it’s dried up now but no sunshine. A bit more bottoming today, almost finished and then I may pack some things. Getting excited now. @KARNAK we’re off on our Grand Tour to France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Netherlands or Belgium, depends which way we decide to come back home, Amsterdam to Newcastle or Dover to Calais. The weather is looking good for us at the moment. Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone. 🙂
 
Morning all, 7.2 for me today. Course going good so far.
 
Good morning 12.7 forgot to take my Basal last night, 🙄 slight correction dose, down to 5.1 now.🙂 Got my TIFA course tomorrow lasts 5 weeks, this is Torbay`s version of DAFNE. Weather is very cloudy here, slight wind and 21.C on the outside wall.😎

Have a great time Mr & Mrs @eggyg, take care.🙂

@Flower and @Benny G welcome to the cramp club,😡 I`ve got a Totem pole in the bedroom to dance around when I get leg cramps.🙂
Congratulations @Hazel on HS.🙂

Have a good day folks, take care.🙂
 
Good morning folks🙂

Had a weird night. Woke up with a LO reading, possibly due to an unusual level of activity yesterday. Anyway, corrected that and woke up on 6.9. Also weird because I slept for 10 hours in total. Early hibernation, I blame the climate emergency🙄

I’ve got a dilemma. Today, Margaret Atwood’s sequel to the Handmaid’s Tale arrives on my Kindle, but also arrived is Robert Harris’ new book Second Sight. And any time now Stephen King’s new opus will arrive. Actually, that’s a trilemma. What’s a man to do? That’s two dystopias and a workaday horror.

Bit like life:D

On the subject of life, grandson started school last week. He’s already signed up to dance club, cookery club, book club and choir. School is a lot harder than when I was a four year old:confused:

And Diabetes UK made me depressed by including a Christmas gift catalogue with Balance. Heartless, that is. Christmas is a midwinter festival, and we’re just starting autumn. What’s the hurry?

Have a good Wednesday, folks.🙂
 
Morning all, 8.3 for me today. Last full day in Newcastle and last day of training.
