Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all on this so far sunny Sunday. A 6.5 for me. Up at a more reasonable time than yesterday. Really put my day to pot, meals wise, that is. Nothing too exciting to look forward to, except my 10 minutes with Joe Wicks, a half hour walk around the garden, and a Sunday roast. Could be worse I suppose. Have a lovely day and stay safe. 🙂
 
07:15 BS 6.1. Better than yesterday. 🙂 Did a LOT of cooking yesterday & even posted up what I ate for lunch in the food forum Mince Turkey Mushrooms in Oyster Sauce.

Mince Turkey (or any meat: beef is the usual; pork or lamb will work too) Mushrooms in Oyster Sauce Serves 3 or 4 Ingredients (in average amounts: a bit less or more dosen’t matter) 400g of mince turkey (350g to 500g is fine) 1 onion diced (I use frozen diced & put in a bit less or more to the...

While also cooked a chicken casserole in the slow cooker & a mushroom stroganoff on the hob too: all for the freezer, mostly, & a few portions in the fridge to eat over the next few days along with what’s left of the bread fir chicken & prawn sandwiches. This time it’s Hovis Wheatgerm bread as there wasn’t any of my usual Kingsmill 50/50 no crusts: I never used to have substitutes & have that box unticked; but, needs must during Lockdown & it’s essential to have that box ticked now & get substitutes or else get nothing at all!😱

Now with all that cooking done, I can relax today & concentrate on my Weekend Round Back 9 of another Virtual Golf Tournament of which I’m hoping to FINALLY finish with a top ten medal: during The Easter 9 Hole Cup I was JUST pushed out of 10th. Place during the 15 minutes between the end of the round until the official results: buffer is there for late finishers; like Mastermind “you’ve started the hole so, you can finish it!” Here was I thinking “Yippee! I’m in the Top 10” & was GUTTED to find I’d dropped down to 11th. Place 15 minutes later! Uuhhh!😱 dosen’t quite warrant a😡, cause I DO try not to put those in my posts but, there’s no Crying emoji! & that’s what I wanted to do, I was SO disappointed!:(

Ah! The birdies, parents, are chirping away happily, the chicks distinctively sound different, & I was aware of their little, short, asthmatic cheeps intermittently through the night: poor parents must be exhausted; they chirp their birdie songs later in the morning these days!🙄:D BUT, they still do it!😛😎:D

Already, the day looks like a return back to nice bright sunshine!:D😎 So, I wish you al a Super Bright Sunshiny Day inside & outside!😉😎😛:D
 
I was 7.4 ( yayy) if youve seen any of my other threads you'll know this is brilliant for me.
These changes are doing wonders for my mood on waking too, thanks so much for all your support guys.

Good morning. A very strange night. I woke up at 2 am with all of the symptoms of a hypo so had some carbs. An hour later exactly the same so had some more. Hence the 8.2 this morning. Having purchased a mask at €3.50 a week ago yesterday the town hall delivered to me another one with ventilator and three of the pleated masks that nurses wear all at no charge. The Red Cross in Spain have started delivering food parcels to the vulnerable and elderly all paid for by the Andalusian government but no sign of them in this small village yet. Not that I need it.
 
Same as @Flower and @Baz. today at 7.1, bit disappointed in that as have been being good food wise although have just remembered I went mad and had a packet of baked crisps, there’s no fooling the DF is there? :confused: Hubby repainted the utility room yesterday and although now lovely and bright it looks a bit clinical as it is white, now thinking I should have waited and chosen a colour when it’s safe to go to Homebase, never mind will rethink later on, it’s not huge so wouldn’t take long to redo. @Anitram we woman are fickle things aren’t we?🙂 I did go to the street dance yesterday and glad I did, it was great fun even though dancing in the road meant we had to stop a few times for pesky cars but they did all wave and not run us over which is a good thing😛. Took pressies up to our granddaughter and watched her open them at a safe distance and watched her blow her candles out on her cake which was lovely but sad to have to leave without kisses and cuddles, c’est la vie!!
Not sure what to do today, need to do something as have had back ache for the last two days and need to keep moving as back to work tomorrow sitting at a desk for 7 hours.
Have a good day everyone, cloudy here but believe it will be nice and sunny elsewhere. Take care and @Kaylz as Captain Tom says ‘tomorrow will be a better day’ I hope it is for you xx
 
4.2 this morning, and a bit of a dip in the night, but I suspect that was me leaning on the sensor.

Well done @brisr949. All looking good.
@Bexlee enjoy your weekend you deserve a rest, from a retired teacher. Thanks for all you are doing.
@rebrascora G&T I hope you have a better day today. Just found some cheery jam with gin in the cupboard!!
Congrats on HS @khskel

Another cloudy day, and looks like it is set in. Another day of sewing/weaving
Have a good day whatever you do today.
 
Been up since about 6 this morning. Kitchen cupboards cleaned out and reorganised. Video call with a friend and also with the folks done. Some legal stuff that the QC needed collated and sent over and BG this morning a not too bad 7.0

Now that’s all done and there’s a load in the washing machine and the dishwasher is doing what it’s designed to do I’ve no idea what I’ll do for the rest of the day. Netflix binge I guess!

Has anyone heard from Ted @KARNAK ? I really hope you're alright Ted as I haven't seen you posting lately. Thinking of you and wishing you well x

Yes @Flower the last thing I can see from Ted was on 19th April, that is a concern, hope he is alright :confused:
 
Pleased to report my G&Ts did the trick and I was back in the 5's this morning with a 5.8.
Woke up at 5.50am feeling a bit hot and restless and having a bad dream. Having imbibed last night I thought I might be hypo but I got a nice 6.8 when I checked. Went back to bed half expecting DP to take it upwards but an hour and a half later it had dropped a little, so I will take that. I even managed to get away with just one unit for DP this morning instead of 2 and have stayed nicely in range all day so far, so feeling like I am back on form!

@khskel A begrudged congratulations! 😉 There is just no justice in this world if you got a House Special after eating Pizza! I suppose you could say that it takes a lot of skill to get such a result though..... or just jammy!
My partner went to the pizza shop last night and I had the tiniest sliver that was no more than 1/4inch wide and carefully avoiding the crust from one of the left over pieces, before I went to bed... Yum! Having said that, I really enjoyed my boiled egg salad with cheese coleslaw last night. I can't remember enjoying salads quite as much as I seem to these days.
 
Morning all,
A 5.8 for me today.
I have noticed my tablet has started learning the phrases I use on this forum which is hilarious!
Played scrabble the other day with Mrs Snowwy to try and learn some new words!
Look out for developments...
Anyhoo managed to see grandson from a distance as we were out on exercise, the funniest thing was saying goodbye with 'virtual hugs from 3 metres' My daughter videoed it and 'lo and behold' it appears later on FB to amuse a good number!
Can't wait for the real hugs !!
Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all, it's a 6.6 for me today
