Group 7-day waking average?

@freesia .....Oh no! Hope they were little humans and not little aliens ! We had wind and rain today combined with no heating and more that 1/2 turned into aliens!
Bless them, they were good on the whole. I just stress out as i want to do a good job and at a young age they need so much support. Don't know what it is about wind, everyone goes a bit wild lol
 
It's well known about wind. At least we don't have a Hamsin or a Mistral. I hates the wind!

Hope you've all had a good day. Couldn't get any blood out and when I did measure the tiddy pinprick I did manage to get it was 10.9 which I think is wrong. If I ever try to measure a miniscule blob I get a high reading so I'm ignoring it.
 
Morning all,
A 6.2 for me today, grandparent duty beckons...

Blessings Snowwy
 
A disappointing and unaccountable rise to 5.8 for me this morning. Just fish and fresh vegetables followed by a small fruit yogurt for tea. Then a snifter of whiskey whilst quizzing online with the family.

My exercise bike is being delivered today. It’ll be good to have an alternative to walking in winter.

Have a great day.
 
5.4 for me this morning. 🙂

Another 7.1 for me today. The proposed meeting will not be taking place, management have decided it’s not needed at this stage - woah trouble is a brewing. The second senior GP asked me yesterday how things were going and I asked if he wanted the truth or a lie, he chose the truth so he got it, warts and all. He was furious and is going to speak with the others. I also spoke to one of the Practice managers and really gave her a piece of mind, politely of course, but nevertheless I went for it. She has decided not to get a bank secretary??? And hasn’t even advertised for a new secretary, how can they be that stupid, I really went for it and am probably the black sheep of the practice. I don’t care, I am unable to do my job to the standard that it should be done and our patients deserve better. Think there’s going to be a blow up about it all.
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest, I promise I’ll stop whinging soon.
Hope you have a better day than is probably in store for me lol xx
 
5.6 this (early) morning.

This is a good place to get that off your chest @SueEK . Sorry that they cannot see the need to support you, and I hope that they can resolve things or that you find an alternative soon.

Have a good day one and all.
 
A very lovely, albeit unusual, 5.4 this morning. Haven’t slept awfully well. Busy day ahead. Flu jabs at pharmacy at 10, into town for haircut for Mr Eggy whilst I order button hole and corsage, buy birthday and wedding card, few last minute bits and pieces for holiday, send parcels back ( bridesmaids dresses and jackets) and a spot of lunch in a nice cafe. Mr Eggy tidied the garden yesterday, cut the lawn, started another compost heap, pulled up the tomato plants, which are covered in green tomatoes, and hung them upside down in the shed! Don’t know whether it’ll ripen them but it’s worth a try. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
 
Morning

I ordered 2 pairs of slippers from M&S 8 days ago, you’d think they would package 2 pairs of slippers together, but no, no, not them, 1 pair was delivered to Bruce’s yesterday and still waiting on the other pair! Asked Hermes to leave on the porch “if nobody was in” but received confirmation of delivery with a pic of Bruce’s front door and the parcel leaning against it, nobody had knocked but I know he was in as I was talking to him on messenger at the time so I had to send him down the stairs, he’ll drop them off sometime he’s dropping cat food and other bits off

5.5 this morning

Have a nice day folks
xx

My M&S stuff usally come by Royal Mail, and parcels are often separate parcels.
 
Morning everyone. 8.6 for me. Tired and struggling to get going this morning. Think its because now i'm back at work i rarely see much daylight this time of year.
@SueEK , rant as much as you like on here. The bosses just don't listen to what others have to say

I didn't know what to expect as never used them before, just hoping the other pair arrive today although Bruce won't be there for a short period as his dads needing his help for a wee while xx
 
My mum puts her green tomatoes in a drawer (anywhere dark’ll do) to ripen @eggyg. Works a treat. 🙂

Morning all.🙂 3.8 here.

Good for you @SueEK - I kept my mouth shut at my last job and just stewed instead of complaining...not good. I hope they act on the wake-up call you gave them.o_O
 
Morning all, sort of HS, I was 5.2 at 6.30am, but I went back to sleep for an hour, and now I'm 5.4, which seems a popular number this morning.
Off for a haircut this morning, and then hope to resume gardening where I got rained off yesterday.
 
I think I have noticed on the confirmation that it may come in different parcels.
just checked my order acknoledgement and there's nothing in there about shipping as different packages, Hermes just text to say they will attempt delivery between 11-1 today anyway so Bruce should be home by then, bet they won't bother and will just send me another picture of his front door! lol xx

That seems to be the trend these days, Amazon didn’t knock, and sent me a pic of my front door which is under a small open porch and up three steps, with the message 'your parcel was left in your garage' I’d like to see anyone get a car in there!

I normally put them in a bowl with ripe ones or a banana, but I would risk it this year as my ripe ones have not even been lasting like normal.

Well I sent him downstairs and when he opened the door the postie was next door and even he looked at the parcel and then gave Bruce a funny look so Bruce felt he had to explain himself that nobody had knocked lol, instructed to be left behind the porch door though not leaning against his front door xx
