Group 7-day waking average?

Good Morning everyone.
8.9 for me.
Warm here. Sorry for anyone having to work or stay indoors today.
Starting my gardening journey today, starting with a walk round and seeing what we have and weeding (hope they are weeds 😱 )
How's new job going @ColinUK
How are you @KARNAK

Afternoon! I’ve had a sneaky lie in, although I have tossed and turned since 3 am, RLS again! Anyways I was rewarded with a very pleasant 5.5, exactly what I went to bed on, before I get told off, I did have a dark chocolate digestive to ward off any nastiness. Lovely morning here too. Supposed to be a good week and youngest daughter has been re furloughed, just for this week, so that was lucky for her. Might persuade her to hang out with the ‘rents and come with us on a walk one day. Have a great day and hope you have more success than me in trying to rustle up five mates to hang out with! 😉
 
Still waiting for new test strips.... but later today I’m off to the GP for the results of my HbA1C test.
BP has been fluctuating between normal and “optimal”. Weight this morning is 87.7kg so I’ve nudged up a little.

Hopefully the DN will be happy but even if she’s not then I still am!

It’s ok ✅
It’s not the most taxing job in the world and I have to watch the clock a little as I have a tendency to be a tad loquacious but other that that all is good.
I’m aware that it’s not really giving me the social contact I was craving though.
 
Morning everybody,
I've just realised this thread is not about number of steps walked :D
You’ll find we use it for most often for a general check in and update with news and achievements etc rather than strictly morning BG stats so I’d not worry too much 🙂
 
Afternoon all. S'gorgeous isn't it? Lanny I like Strike too, not watched it yet, I record everything as I can't stand adverts, have to fastforward them. I only like Christmas adverts and the occasional excellent one.

10.3 @ 7.57am because I can't get a handle on being diabetic. I got well told off yesterday because the trifles were half price in Tesco £1.50 so I brought one back and bro is now borderline. He's sensible and really had a go at me. We all still shared it between us though, him me and Mum. 🙄 I have to get a grip.

I had to look up loquacious, couldn't remember what it meant. Describes me to a tee when talking online or to pets. I'm stum in real life or when talking to strange children who can see right through you and never like me anyways the little brats. :D I luv all my grand nieces and nephews however and spend as much time as possible with them ... or did. :(
 
Greetings!
Just realised I forgot to post 1st thing which was a surprising 6.3. I traced it to having too many grapes with the cheese n biscuits 😎
They were nice!
Anyhoo been to Mr Aldi first thing and then straight on with continuing the patio re-lay.
Just run out of sharp sand so consulted Mr Google.
Wickes no stock... nearest 13 miles away, Homebase no stock... But wait! in there the other day and 3 pallet loads. Sure enough, they had some.
Why do computers lie or is it the operators?

Haha thanks, at least I'm a little more at ease and can be that close to him now, was nice, did a few as we haven't done any pics together since the beginning of the year! xx
@Kaylz, its good you can feel more at ease. Nice pic x
 
00:43 BS, can you believe it, 7.8? :D🙄😉 Midnight Levemir alarm, I checked my kindle & lo & behold the new Strike book is delivered!😛 Bunged in 48 units Novorapid for breakfast, in the oven, & started on the book. Will read for a few hours before going back to sleep a bit later!🙄

Oohhh, @Ditto , you made me laugh! :D Needing to look up loquacious: that’s ME to a tee; how many times have I, in italics, have needed to go back mid post to stick a loquacious warning at the top & put lines of asterisks in between the waffling so, people can skip the waffle altogether?o_O:D🙄😉

Re waking BS: it seems that I’m just below 8mmol by Midnight & the 50 units of Levemir just holds me steady while I sleep a few more hours; can’t see if I SHOULD change that? I usually eat dinner, test 90 minutes after, usually in the mid 8’s, & go to bed! I could risk upping dinner NR a bit, reluctant to do as I’ll be sleeping with still some active insulin on board OR, I could increase LR a bit more to lower me a smidge bit more when I go back to sleep? But, it’s pulling the elastic band & it could ping back on me? My waking BS may not be as low as I’d like but, it IS very consistent!🙄

An extremely early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

I’ll be patient & wait a bit longer before/if I start experimenting: I’m doing ok ish on the amount of insulin I’m on now!🙄
 
Morning all,
6.0 this morning bright and early!
Haha @Lanny we love loquacious you certainly get your money's worth here! Used to love them as a kid as bootlaces or was that liquorice... 🙂
Another warm day forecast,
Blessings Snowwy
 
4.5 this morning. 🙂
Brexit and Corona Virus together. 😱

@Lanny you ought to aim for sesquipedalian loquaciousness in your postings 😉 It may well discombobulate us readers. Use the word antidisestablishmentarianism as often as you can😎

Anyway, it’s unremitting rain here right now but an excellent 5.0 from me.
 
Morning all. Went to bed on a 6.8, woke in the night at 6.1,woke at 5.45am to a 2.6!!! Whaatt?!! Went up to 6.6 then back to 5.2 at breakfast. Several hypos lately for no obvious reason so am wondering whether basal needs changing again now i'm back at work. Will try and sort that again. Sigh.....who sent the DF my way?
Anyway, going to be another beautiful day. Enjoy it if you're not working. Have a good day if you are x
 
Morning all, same as yesterday. 5.5, not complaining though. Another nice day promised, not sure what we’re up too apart from boiling a chicken carcass for stock. Does it get more exciting than that do you think? Probably not! Have a terrific Tuesday.🙂
