Group 7-day waking average?

Morning. It’s very wet and windy today. A 7.1. Man flu still lingering, I’m absolutely sick of coughing. Feeling tired had a late night watching the Sydney Harbour Bridge web cam as my newly married daughter and her husband were climbing it at 11am, their time. I couldn’t see them of course as even the cars looked liked ants! I’m sure they had fun. I’ll message her to find out when I’ve worked out what time it is down there! Have a good day. 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.4 here. Just leaving to go up to son's to let delivery men in while he’s at work. Now remind me, why did I retire? Oh, it’s so I didn’t have to face rush hour traffic ever again...
 
Good morning. Been tinkering with my bolus and upping my carbs and ended up with an 8.3 today, more tinkering required I think.
Better than the constant waking up hypo though xx
 
5.3 for me today, I have a sore throat, I will be working from home today, first of all don't want to spread my germs around the office as it is totally open plan and secondly I am following the advice of Essex Fire Service following a chemical spillage on an industrial site about 1 mile from where I live as the advice is to stay indoors and keep windows shut. They have closed all the schools today. I am sure I would have been fine just going to my car and driving to work, but as I already don't feel great I had already asked to work at home before I read the ongoing advice.

@AJLang, pleased to hear your eyes have remained the same, good luck with today's appointment, and enjoy your week off of appointments.

@Kaylz - to reply to your question yesterday, my mum usually celebrates her birthday on 28th, but my hubby always teases her and says she can't celebrate early.
 
Good morning it’s a 7.0 for me.

Off to Charcot foot clinic today, my collapsed ankle has been hurting a lot under my cast , really hoping nothing else has fractured. Deep breath off I go...🙄

Have a good stable bg kind of day if you can 🙂
i hope you appointment is a positive one in regards to your new pain, good luck! xx
 
Good luck at your appointments today @Flower and @AJLang
A 7.8 for me today. Appointment made for the 24th January for blood tests for annual review.
 
Lordy!! Another long lie-in for me. 🙂
My reading earlier was 5.3 before I dozed off again. 🙄
Have a great day everyone.

@Hazel
Congrats on your HS. Good to see you back on form and showing us how it is done! Will we be seeing more HSs from the HS queen before the week is out?? Probably!

Disappointing 7.9 from me this morning but I got stressed last night and didn't sleep well. Been back down in the 5s and 4s since then so I'm not too unhappy about it. Still a lot better than the persistent double figures I was getting over Xmas.
 
Good morning 🙂 Remember me? 😉 5.3 for me today 🙂
Morning Alan good to see you posting, where have you been - travelling to exotic places I hope and not been poorly. Good number for you today. I have 6.7 today even though I only had a salad at 6 yesterday and nothing after, c’est la vie!!
Have a good day everyone
 
Morning guys

So basal reduction isn’t going well, spent most of yesterday higher than desired despite a couple of half unit what should be corrections, I only lowered it by 1 unit! I don’t know whether it’s because it was milder last week and has turned colder and wilder again or what but put it up to 13.5 units last night, if need be if I go back to 14 and have lows I’ll just have to change my meal ratios and work that way

Anyways 5.3 dropping to 4.8 by breakfast, thankfully upstairs alarm didnt wake me this morning at 5am, good job as didnt get to sleep until about 3am with that crazy wind!

Have a nice day folks
Xx
 
8,5 from me this morning
 
Morning all.🙂 6.1 here.😛

Lovely to see you back @Northerner.:D

Well, got my pesky essay in yesterday and I’m taking a (well-deserved IMHO🙄) week off. A bit of cleaning today - Bloden’s molting like nobody’s business so some extreme hoovering is called for. 😱 Then I’m taking myself out for lunch. 😉
