Group 7-day waking average?

Wow, thank you for the warm welcome back this morning, to the Forum, it meant a lot.

I have been really down in the dumps, this whole coronavirus issue, is scaring the pants out of me. Weeks fine, months, do not know so much. Where I live, of all things, toilet rolls you cannot get for love nor money. It is ridiculous the panic buying and fighting in the aisles.

No panic buying seems to be a global phenomenon, Americans who have never owned a gun have been queuing to buy them. Crazy world.

After an annoying restless night (RLS) I finally fell asleep and awoke very late to a 6.3. Won't complain ~ happy bunny!

So I'm on my 7th day of self quarantine and feeling the need of fresh air. Have been biding time in the garden weather permitting but it's not the same as going for a walk outdoors ~ tho I have been walking several times around my garden to the amusement of my neighbours curtain peeping!:D

My eldest has been calling over with eggs milk & veg (no idea where she's getting it from🙄 but I ain't complaining) I don't need anything else as my fridge freezer is almost full ~ not from stock piling but due to my general good housekeeping. I've been making homemade thick hearty soups, eating two & freezing the rest. Chicken casserole cooking in the oven as I write for today's and tomorrow's dinners.

Stay safe everyone. x

Early morning all (yes it's 4.50!), A 7.3 for me today. I've just got to work as I'm covering the girl who normally does the cash stuff. It's going to be a manic one today.

Morning all, @Stitch147 hope you have a calm day...
6.5 for me today.
Went for a bike ride yesterday, been a while, forgot how hard saddles can be. As I haven't got a 'gel derriere' anymore, I might have to invest in a 'gel' saddle! 🙄 Have a good day everyone,

Morning all on this frosty Friday. A very nice 5.4. Been up an hour awake for two. Mind buzzing again, such uncertain times. I was lying awake worrying about my grandchildren. Not so much the youngest three, they live on a farm in the back of beyond. So plenty to keep them occupied and away from everyone. It’s our 13year old granddaughter I’m more concerned about, she’s an only child. Mum at work until 2, although stepdad about at the moment as he’s a taxi driver and does/did school contracts, she is very gregarious and has lots of friends so it is going to be difficult for her. She has been off school since Tuesday lunchtime. She has to go in today to pick a home learning pack up. We will FaceTime of course but generally when the kids are off we take them for days out. It’s going to be a tough time for the teenagers. Stay safe everyone.
 
morning all it looks a nice day here today but will wait and see my reading today is 7.1 , hope you all have a good safe day as must as you can
 
Good morning

5.7 pridk vs 6.1 scan, hopefully this is a good one then!

Bruce's mum going to Asda in Forfar (yes I know that wont mean much to basically any of you lol) today so she asked if me and my mum needed anything, hopefully I'll get butter and mum will get toilet roll!

Decided rather than being depressed about the constant news, posts etc I'll be spending not so much time around, the forum isnt focused on diabetes at all at the moment and the constant posts aren't helping those that are really quite anxious and I also feel people needing genuine help with their diabetes then their posts might be missed, the Type 1 Facebook group that is refusing posts about the virus are going about it the right way I think keeping only 1 post to have an input in as then it's not rubbed in your face

Anyway I'm going to nap this afternoon if the parcelforce guy turns up before then, if not I'll just have to stay awake

Take it easy guys

Morning all, 6.4 here. Thought I might be lower, after doing a long and muddy walk (is it too much to ask that the weather might dry up a bit?). The dumplings I put on top of the casserole probably went on giving last night.
 
4.7 this morning. 🙂
I'm getting quite a few around that figure these days. :D
So I'm definitely doing something right.

Stay safe and well.

5.3 this morning so pleased with that. Didn't sleep so well, but like everyone I am struggling with this. I am just have a quick Facebook time in the morning, then staying off it and trying to restrict watching the news to once a day to try to limit time being spent on the subject.
