Group 7-day waking average?

5.8 this morning.
Congrats @Robin in HS

Sun is out. Pilates (inside as it is still cold) and ‘meet’ for coffee.
A little more weaving today.
Hope the essay progresses well today @Bloden
 
Good morning. Must confess that I was not looking forward to take my readings this morning. Yesterday having a surfeit of leeks and potatoes I made Vichyssoise and I purchased a large rustic-type loaf. Succumbed to eating all of the soup and a large chunk of the bread. Woke however to a 5.0.
Sounds delicious Michael and didn't do your numbers any harm!
 
Good afternoon on a very overcast and windy day 4.8 for my troubles.🙄 Went for my walk this morning and called in at Lidl`s just a small queue controlled by security, I think/know I overdone the sunbathing:( after this mornings ablutions I noticed what I thought was dry skin turned out to be my scalp and forehead was peeling😳. My time as a snake has just started so if anybody has any rodents spare PM me and I`ll tell you were to send them.😱:D

Congratulations @Robin on HS.🙂

Heads up to @Grannylorraine for keeping up her running in the garden, well done.🙂

Take care my friends it will go on longer but not forever, unity is what we need and as a forum I believe we have that, stay safe folks.🙂
 
Good morning folks .. I haven’t read any posts yet. I hope all is well with everyone.
Dad and I though we were getting over it, till it came back and said hi did you miss me.
I woke up this morning feeling better than I have but still very tired .
My insulin needs are still high .

Morning

Bruce’s mum managed to get 2 boxes of Quaker jumbo oats 1kg so that’s me got oats for nearly 2 months, haven’t heard about my new storage container for them leaving yet, she couldn’t get Tesco digestive biscuits for me (as many of you know my go-to when I’m a bit on the low side at bedtime) so she picked up Ms Molly’s (exclusive to Tesco) 19p cheaper! Only 31p a pack!

Anyway 6.9 for me today, unsure why but hey ho

@Ljc I hope you guys recover fully soon and you both start feeling much better

@Michael12421 not sure why you seem a tad disappointed as its perfectly acceptable
Xx
 
Morning all and 6.5 for me.

More of the same on the home office front today. At least I get a view of the woodpecker on the peanut feeder from time to time.

Keep safe and sane everyone.
 
5.4 this morning, so pleased with that, had terrible craving for sugar last night so just had a few blueberries to try and take the edge off of that.

@Kaylz - Molly's are basically Tesco value products, they rebranded them with names, same as their fruit and veg with a farm name rather than having it all branded as value. For me if it tastes the same and the nutrition values are still ok for you, then what's in a name, I have their cheapest yogurt as it is 30p cheaper a pot and tastes exactly same and nutritionally is almost (not quite) identical to their own brand own.

Take care and love to you all.
 
8.5
 
@Grannylorraine basically the same carb wise as the 50p Tesco ones give or take 0.1g or so lol, yeah I have found I prefer the cheaper brands of digestives
Got some Coop peanut butter that's good but going to try Lidl's own stuff as it's 65p cheaper a jar! should be just as good though, if not better
xx
 
Only entry in my diary "Re-cycle day" I must get out more. Oh wait!, I can't. 🙄
4.1 for me this morning. 🙂

LOL @Kaylz and @Grannylorraine you two could have your own TV show - "Eat Well for Less for Diabetics?" :D

Stay safe and well and stay at home.
 
4.0 this morning, but caught it just in time.
A yo yo night after mistiming Bolus for last nights meal.

Hope you both continue to feel better today @Ljc

Have a good day all.
 
Good morning 5.4 on a can`t make your mind up weather day, strong wind up sea is roaring like a gud un.🙂 Halo wave cleaning day today cooking a whole chicken don`t arf make a mess,:( not much to report today but glad to be amongst friends.🙂

Sorry you and dad are still unwell @Ljc {{{HUGS}}}.

Lock down for a while yet but cope we will, take care folks stay safe.🙂

PS congratulations to Captain Tom who has just passed the £5 million NHS donation mark.:D
 
Ooh I’m very late. I thought I’d been on but I obviously got distracted. So much to do and no time to do it! Not! A very nice 6. Happy with that. A much nicer day so far, I was tempted to light my newly rattled through fire yesterday. But just put a jumper on instead. Off for a different walk after lunch, well it’s the same really but the other way round! Otherwise, nowt exciting happening in Eggyland. Have a safe day. 🙂
 
Afternoon all. 8.0 again for me, being stupid with Easter chocolate. Glorious here so I'm in the garden. Went shopping yesterday and bought a mask for 2 quid. Think I was fleeced but I was so surprised to be offered. 🙂 Here, have a laugh, my photos are working again...
