Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 7.7 on a wet & maybe windy day.🙄 Podiatrist coming at 09:35 tomorrow morning so got a day off from HCP`s today except for the usual BP and finger prick tests,🙄 I may even get away with the daily blood tests.🙂 Not much else to report today other than the usual chaos my crowd cause when they turn up, Staff and the nurses leave the suite smiling very loudly.:D

Rest today @eggyg and you too @Kaylz.

Looking great @Grannylorraine be proud of your achievement.🙂

You too @Rob51, I can`t even get my leg over,😳 maybe I should rephrase that,:D the bike.🙂

Take care my friends, please enjoy your day and take care.🙂

Great to have you back posting on a regular basis again Ted, you had us all very worried and I for one am still worried as I'm sure the rest of the gang are too!

I wish but alas I have to hobble my way out to Lidl so a couple of miles on one good foot should be fun 🙄

Take it easy my lovely, sending huge hugs
xx
 
Very late today- I honestly thought I'd posted my perfectly formed House Special 5.2 earlier - but no!!o_O

Tripped on a rug in my house yesterday and have made my broken foot hurt like %$@# 😱 what a chump. More drugs please nurse ...

Lovely to hear from you Ted, keep on mending 🙂 @eggyg stay on the sofa and I hope things settle for you.🙂

Good to see you back posting Ted and your figures looking much healthier, hope they are taking good care of you. We have all missed your experience and gentleness in your advice. Xx
 
It’s nice to see you posting again Ted. I trust that your eyes are still improving .
 
Good morning folks . It was so good to see it was nearly 5 o/clock when I woke up , I’m not so pleased with the 6.9 though ,still it could be worse.
Got some grocery shopping coming today , am pushing the boat out as it’s from w rose and plumber coming this evening to sort out the dodgy kitchen tap. Oh what a gay life I lead :D

I have been wracking my brains for a suitable prezzy for a very helpful neighbour , I don’t know if or what they like to drink else I would get them a nice bottle of something and they will probably have tons of nice things to eat
 
Good morning 🙂 6.7 for me today 🙂 Proper blood too, none of that scanning malarkey! 😱 Sensor finished halfway through yesterday, so thought I would wait until after this morning's shower to put a new one on 🙂

Good to hear from you Ted/@KARNAK 🙂 Congrats on the House Special @Flower 🙂 I hope the foot is not too painful today and the offending rug has been suitably chastised! 😱 🙂
 
Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 8.6 for this morning

Going for doggy walk then off to office for another busy week
 
I showing a 7.2 this morning
 
Morning all, 5.0 here. Managed a reading in the 5s by waking up a bit earlier.

Ha! Told you, tested again an hour later, half an hour after I'd given myself 5 units of insulin for a carby breakfast, to see if it was safe to start eating it yet...7.5.

Good morning

Think I did a little too much walking yesterday as my foot is really sore and was even while out, even put hiking boots on to support it better

Trying to get back into drawing so here’s a quick Bambi I did last night, not very good I know but I haven’t drawn in 3 years so I ament too upset

Anyways its a 6.8 for me today, going to try and rest my foot as much as I can these next few days I think

Have a lovely day folks
xx
 
Morning on this calmer day. A 6.4. It appears my meter has lost its fives again! They just keep disappearing, I suspect it’s the Diabetes Fairy stealing them to order for you lot! Another rubbish night, not only do I have to contend with back/hip pain, seasonal and wedding insomnia but I’m now full of cold! What will keep me awake tonight folks? Answers on postcard to PO Box FEDUP NOW! Have a Happy Monday y’all. 🙂
 
Good morning everyone, hope you are all well.

5.6 for me today.

Off now to volunteer at a charity which which helps the poor. Sorting out donations of food, clothes and toys.

Keep warm folks

Well, the diabetes fairly ‘borrowed' my 5 back pretty quick, I’ve just edited my post above to reflect that I’m now 7.5!
Hope your cold goes away quickly, but in the meantime, don’t breathe over your computer, none of us want it!

GOOD MORNING FOLKS

Verrrrry verrry blowy last night, I thought I heard roof tiles falling & crashing down. Will check later. Could do without a roofers bill this side of Christmas (or any time for that matter!)
After a restless night my metre chucked out a 7.3 this morning. Not too happy with that but will take it on the chin and hope tomorrow will produce a more realistic number.

@Flower well done on your HS ~ oh noooo, who put that silly rug there?
@Northerner unusually high for you.
@eggyg keep on the straight & narrow and you'll be as fit as you can be for the forthcoming wedding.

Take care folks and don't do anything I wouldn't do!!!
