Group 7-day waking average?

Today did not start well. I spilled a hot tea over my test meter, it appeared to be goosed (it may dry out) so was not able to test.

Can't manage without a test meter, so stopped off at the hospital clinic who gave me a replacement.

So just tested 6.7 which is ok as I have been up since 8 had my breakfast, but did not take any Novorapid.

So, all sorted

Have a great day
 
Good day late again 8.7 on a lovely sunny day.🙂 Been to Lidl this morning 3 carrier bags and a rucksack full,🙄 when I got home started to unpack and realised no food only beer, mind you it is craft brewed.:D Well managed to stay in all week that's a first except for this morning, the phone has been non stop from friends even as I type.🙂

Good feet result @nonethewiser well done.🙂

No SAD lamp this end @Northerner.🙂

Spoke too soon sky`s gone black, have a good day folks.🙂
 
Good morning folk . 5.6 with a beautiful flatfish.
I only needed my Salbutamol inhaler once yesterday and my levels were good all day , I am keeping my fingers crossed for today.
 
@SueEK , I hope you managed to reassure your friend and that she believed you about how we manage it food wise.
 
Morning all, 8.2 for me today. And a slightly swollen knee due to placement of new tattoo. Oh well, no pain no gain.
 
Morning, woke to 5.2 with nice line on libre overnight.

Nothing much planned for today, dry outside but looks like rain is on way.
Congratulations on your house special
 
Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 8.4 for this morning

just waiting for the rain to stop then off cycling for a couple of hours
 
Morning all 🙂, today it's a 4.8 😎.
 
Morning all.🙂 7.4 here and full of cold. A day on the sofa calls? Na, impossible!🙄

Met some lovely peeps at Ffrindiaith last night and managed to siarad Cymraeg (speak Welsh). I think I might have passed through the ‘too embarrassed to speak’ phase into the ‘who cares what I sound like’ phase...at last! 😛
 
Congratulations on your HS @nonethewiser.

6 for me so starting to see improvements, didn't need to use my ventolin during the night so another positive, only very slightly congested this morning so hopefully a nice hot cup of coffee will sort that out, lost 2lbs just 1lb away from losing 2.5 stone, hoping to do a bit more before Christmas, not sure I will quite make it 3 stone by Christmas but need to focus on how far I have come and going to Christmas parties in dresses 3 sizes smaller than last year and with my diabetes under control.

Going bake my final 6 Christmas cakes today, bring the grand total to 18 this year, going to have to draw the line at making them for anyone else as these are gifts, as I am not a business, although this year I am being cheeky and asking for donations to my Half Marathon fundraising, no specific amount and totally voluntary they will still get the cake even if they don't donate.

Going to give running a try tomorrow might not be my usual long run for a Sunday, but whatever I can manage will be a good start back into training.

Now you have my life story and weekend activities have a good weekend very one.
 
Hello all. Back in the sixes, 6.4, better than the sevens I’ve been having for a while. Visit to the seamstress with the five bridesmaids today, only one doesn’t need taken up and that’s my 12 year old granddaughter’s! She’s already 5ft 8ins! Five weeks today until the big day, it’s filling my every waking moment, and sleeping, last night I dreamt everyone came to the wedding dressed as Pudsey Bear! :D Have a great day whatever you’re doing. 🙂
 
Morning All
