Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 5.4 here, had to treat a 3.8 at 4am. I’ve been awake an hour early the last few mornings, so now we’ve changed the clocks, why had I just gone into a deep sleep again just before the alarm went off?
 
6.5 after eating chocolate biscuits yesterday and having an anxiety attack in the night, probably brought on by all the sugar I have been eating recently. Trouble is everything little thing is winding me up at the moment, like hubby saying he was going to go to Tesco's today and be there for 8 as our fridge is almost bare, I do have frozen and canned food, but as this is his only day off and haven't been able to shop for over a week, and won't be able to shop for another 8 days I would have thought getting out to get food was high up his priority list, but no he is still in bed asleep.

Clearly our priorities are different. i know he is working hard to keep the nation fed, but what about keeping his own family fed.
 
Morning all and a 4.9 for me.

Thus far resisted the temptation to order another new synth. Currently enjoying learning a few baroque keyboard pieces and brushing up on my long forgotten clarinet technique.

Have a good day everyone.

Definitely unwell and BG this morning at 11.

Sore throat, slight temperature, utterly wiped out.

Hopefully it won’t be a nasty bout and BG will drop quickly once it’s gone.

Sorry I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts this morning, I didn't respond to wish you well, hoping you get through this quickly.
 
4.4 this morning. 🙂I had a very disturbed sleep last night. Some annoying little bleep bleep bleep somewhere near. 😡 At first I thought it was in our house, but after going round and checking every bit of electronics, I realised it was outside. Bloomin' thing's still bleeping.

Stay safe and well.

Morning all,
Late on parade today because I have been out for my 'Boris' walk 5k.
Anyway it was 5.9 before I went...
@Kaylz I am loving the scottish lessons as my father was from Cowie in Stirlingshire and went down the pits at 14. As a child I heard all sorts of words I 'didne ken' and sadly I was born a Southerner...
However been married to a wee scots lass from Edinburgh for 45 years, so nearly converted 🙂

@ColinUK hope you feel better soon.

Trains did run today!!! Give it up for key workers!

Blessings Snowwy
 
5.1 today. Just missed the HS - but these lower numbers are all new territory for me so I am more than pleased.

Colder weather this week, we even had a wintery sleet shower yesterday, so going to need to take all those sprouting seedlings into protective care I think.
 
Another pesky one with an 11.9 in spite of a basal rate of 150%.
Onward and upward (I hope not)

A sunny morning but still cold.
Another day inside I think.

Morning All. It’s so quiet where I am......And lovely as there’s no builders on the site next door.

Reporting a 6.0 this morning. Have a great day all.
 
Good morning 6.3 on an overcast day, surprising what you find when clearing cupboards out and what needs washing after years of non use.o_O🙂 A lot warmer today and the wind has dropped, in more ways than one,😳 Skype today with the Grandchildren get to virtually see them more since schools out.🙂

Congratulations @zoombapup & @Anitram on HS.🙂

Sorry to hear you are no better @ColinUK hope things improve quickly for you {{{HUGS}}}.

Keep safe folks if you are not feeling well be more astute, take care everyone. 🙂
 
Good morning all, 7.9 @ 7.35am 🙂

5 million to send us peasants a letter! Just tell me on the telly Boris!

Tested just now (before lunch) and it’s 6.4 - I’m fully dosed up on paracetamol so no idea if that makes a difference.
 
Good morning. 5.8.
My body clock hasn’t caught up yet , It seems so strange waking up at this time.
 
Morning

Grandad isn’t happy, manager of Scotmid (Coop) had a word with him on Saturday for being in more than once, the person on the early shift must’ve mentioned he’d been in earlier, I have no sympathy for him getting a telling off as we have been telling him he shouldn’t be popping in at least twice a day, on top of that he still isn’t washing his hands and when I brought it up that he’d come up and in here without washing his hands the reply was “I forgot” how can you forget to wash your hands!? So when he leaves I’m a stressed out mess running round cleaning the door handles etc that he’s touched, I can barely step away from the sink before I’m back at it washing my hands again atm and my hands are literally that sore I want to cry with the pain! It may be harsh but when hes down tomorrow he'll be getting told he needs to get sanitiser gel or wipes and use them after hes come in the closey and in the house, I cant carry on suffering like this!

7.4 for me after digestives before bed, basal is being upped as it is so will move up to 15 after 4 doses of 14.5 and not much change, just want to get everything sorted but the stress of my grandad probably isnt helping!

Morning all it another 7.9 for me this morning , Not sure why I seem to be getting a lot of 7.0 / 7.9 range readings when normal I'm in the 6's range I'm eating the same stuff as normal, okay I know I'm not in work but not sure if that's causing the high readings

That and the current going ons probably xx
 
A nice 6.4, as I totally under bolused last night. I was 4.9 before my tea and definitely didn’t want to be the low at bed time, plus had been walking. So had a conservative bolus and decided I would give a correction, if needed, at bedtime. I was 9.4 after 11 last night. I was that shocked I forgot to have a correction! Probably a good job I didn’t. It’s a lovely sunny but cold morning here. Gardening is the order of the day today, ( and reading). Have a safe day everyone.
