Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, a 7.8 for me today. Travelling home back to Essex at lunchtime today to spend the weekend at home before going to Birmingham Monday for my fire training course.
 
Good morning 7.8 on a fine morning,🙂 had a bit of a shock last night, had a chicken salad sandwich 5units of NR. Two hours later 18.8😱 another eight units of NR soon sorted that out,🙄 feet review this afternoon so here`s hoping.

Well out on the balcony for awhile get some more vitamin D and Melanoma`s,:D just take care of yourselves folks and have a great day.🙂
 
12.5 for me this morning, don't know why that happened. Worst was that we had a a violent and heavy thunderstorm during the night and I found my study flooded this morning. Looks like that when they put in my new optic fibres for the Internet they didn't close up the hole they drilled through the wall and the rain just ran in through that. Oh well, I always wanted an indoor swimming pool!

Really sorry to hear about the flood Michael :( I hope there isn't too much damage.
 
Luckily the sun has come out so I am hoping tomorrow to rectify the hole both inside and out with a silicone gun. However, climbing a ladder with crutches (me, not the ladder) is a bit hazardous, I'll just have to be more than a tad careful. Perhaps some passing workman will take pity on me and offer to do it.
 
Hello Folks,

Back from my Turkish Jolleys now - great time enjoyed seeing Turkish/Kurdish friends I have made over the last 4 trips. For some reason my glucose shot up whilst there which surprised me as my DSN advised that glucose readings would be lower due to the heat.

Anyway my morning read this morning was 10.1 which is by far the lowest over my holiday period - I have advised DSN and my insulin has been increase to 14 units twice daily. Chatting to a friend and he was diagnosed 6 month ago and he is already up to 40 units twice daily so I guess there is room for more increases for me although, I don't think my friends insulin is the same as mine - he couldn't recall the name when told him what mine was.

First game of golf for 2 weeks tomorrow, haven't even swung a club and heading into a pairs competition - my playing partner will be delighted to hear that 🙂

Is their no one who could help you. Putting it mildly going up a ladder with crutches is not a good idea.
 
Please be very careful.

I really hope that you are not intending to scale that ladder.
Just grab anyone to do it for you.
 
Morning everyone. An astonishing 5.5. Don’t know why, I didn’t do anything different yesterday but it’s the first time I’ve been in the fives for a wee while so I won’t be analysing it too closely incase it disappears! Got a busy day ahead, tomorrow’s the big day. So today I will be stripping the bed, it’s going to be a grand drying day, because we all love a clean bed to crawl into when we’ve be away, don’t we? Or is that just me? Last minute bits of ironing and a final hoover round. Setting off no later than 10 in the morning, so I suspect I might not get time to log in tomorrow as I’ll be up to high doh. So it’s au revoir for the time being, fingers crossed there’ll be decent WiFi about and I’ll pop in on occasion. Good luck to everyone in your quest for a HS, rest assured I will be logging in to let you know if that happens! Also good luck for any future appointments and @KARNAK try and stay on your feet! Joking aside Ted, good luck and stay well. 🙂

Have a lovely time @eggyg and try to remember where you are when you wake up. I like to come home to a nice clean bed and used to clean house within an inch of its life (in case I got burgled when away)
Try and have a restful but exciting time. My offer of being your unpaid helper still stands-I have a trunky suitcase that you could tie to boot and I would just sit on it and cling on. You would never know I was there but joking aside looking forward to hear from you on your travels.
 
Who is the silly billy then....forgot to take insulin and BG monitor with me when went for tea last night at daughters. After a wee think, scoffed tea then had insulin when home, along with snack.
Think it was not managed as well as it could have been as 9.0 this morning.(not as bad as it could have been) probably a bit out of kilter today. Have a nice day everyone
 
Good morning you lot :D


Got the 7 christmas presents I already bought wrapped yesterday, ordered another for my mum, grandad will just be getting a selection of jams, biscuits and tea bags again as that’s what he seems to like but still don’t have a clue what to get my dad


Going through a patch of feeling down and stressing about things so my OCD has come back with a vengeance and my hands are so red and sore again which is making me feel even worse as I did well for ages to try and get away from it :(


Anyways it’s 4.6 for me today, think I need to drop the Tresiba a unit as been waking 2-3mmol lower than I've been going to bed on

@eggyg hope you and mr eggy have an amazing time! :D


Hope you all have a nice day 🙂
xx

Have a fantastic time Mr and Mrs @eggyg 🙂 Stay safe on those roads and please update us when you can 🙂 Just think, Brexit will probably be all over and done with by the time you get back! 😱 :D 🙄
 
Have a wonderful time on you holiday @eggyg and Mr Eggyg
