Group 7-day waking average?

Sue, I am a northerner, born and bred, and I was pleased you asked the question because I hadn't a clue.... was thinking maybe it was a dog of some kind!
Scaffie? That’s a Staffie mixed with a cat. They’re all the rage...move over Cockapoo!

Morning! 😛 5.8 here. What a lovely day down here in Pembs!

Good morning 10.2 not a bad day cloudy and sunny if that makes sense. 🙂 Neuropathy kicked in last night with leg cramps got up and had a shower at 02:00 helped a bit but noticed sores developing on two toes on left foot,:( Podiatry on Friday morning.🙂 Coronavirus has moved into the area two cases confirmed one about 2 miles from me which has closed a Grammar school, had a text from my surgery today if you have any flu like symptoms check with 111 first do not come to the surgery, fun isn`t it.😳

Sorry @Grannylorraine you have not improved, thinking of you. {{{HUGS}}}

@Baz hope you have settled down now take care. 🙂

Take care folks have a good tooosday stay safe.🙂
 
6.3 this morning and still feeling rubbish. Not sure how I am going to get into work today, but having already had 3 periods of sickness in less than 6 months and one of them less than a month ago I need to get into work. Might have to try and get there on public transport as don't feel safe to drive as my head is so dizzy. I am sitting here crying, I honestly don't know why I get every virus that goes around, I don't know anybody who gets as many coughs, colds and general viruses as I do. I mean I realise there are a lot of people worse off than me who live with either terminal or very challenging conditions. I have followed all my Drs advice, lost weight, eat well, I cook from scratch using plenty of veg most night, I exercise by running 3 times per week, yoga and a weight training session, yet I am now sick so often much more than when I was unhealthy. Sorry just feeling sorry for myself.
Sorry you’re feeling so rubbish, you really do seem to have had a lot lately. As you say I’ve always thought you were fit and healthy. Has your dr done basic bloods etc to see if they have missed anything. Really hope you get better soon and feel more human xxx

Thank you and every one else, GP confirmed I have a urine infection, I ended up crying when talking to my boss, who said it was fine to work from home if I was up to it. Docs told me to go to bed and rest, but I carried on working. GP did say it can be just one of those things regarding being ill, and my body doesn't care that I have only just got over one illness. He is going to do a full blood screen once I feel better to see if there is any underlying cause apart from Diabetes, I did ask him if I was running to much, but he was very encouraging about keeping that up once I feel well enough, his only caution was perhaps I return to exercise too soon after I am ill and have not given my body a chance to fully recover. Feeling better for having spoken to him and got some antibiotics. I just hate letting them down at work.

I’m very glad your gp is following you up. I know just how you feel about work, I’m the same as we rely heavily on each other (only 4 of us in our particular job). Sadly rest really is your best option. Take good care and be well soon xx
 
Saw something when our binmen turned up this morning that I'd never seen before - a bin girl..!
We've had one of those for years, only one mind xx

I’m back amongst the early risers today. But it hasn’t agreed with me, 7.8 at 6.15 this morning! Lovely start to the day, bright and frosty and calm. Early hair appointment and I’m going to walk into town to get some miles in for my challenge. Have a wonderful Wednesday. 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂

Congrats on the house special @Bexlee :D

Very cold and frosty here, wont be doing much today, banged my elbow on the door frame Sunday at tea time, proceeded to smash it off the car door 2 hours later and yesterday I changed the bed and I dont know what I've done but the pain from my elbow right to my hand is so bad!

Anyways 5.5 for me this morning, heating on and away to get breakfast and a coffee to further heat myself up lol

Have a nice day my lovelies!
Xx
 
Morning all. 🙂 5.4 here.

It’s Show n Tell (Dangos a Gweud, I suppose) at Welsh group this morning - when it’s my turn in two weeks, I’m going to whip out my Libre and blow their minds!:D
 
Morning all, 7.8 for me today. Off to the airport later ready for our flight tomorrow morning. So won't be about much for the next 10 days or so. Hope any appointments anyone has go well. @Grannylorraine hope you feel better soon. X
