Group 7-day waking average?

5.5 at 06:00. Bang in the middle. The days are slowly lengthening.
 
Morning all. 7.6 today and Misty is thankfully much better. She just had half her normal food, no treats etc and lots of sleeping. Tummy is not making those peculiar noises so she is definitely on the up, thanks for all your good wishes, she heard them and says ‘woof woof’ meaning thanks lol 😉😉. Off to Sainsbury’s in a while to get the weeks shop in, opening at 7.30 for NHS and careers so hopefully not too busy.
Have a good day everyone x
 
Morning all,
Had an early 'up' time this morning with an unsettled stomach.
Not as early as @Lanny though...
Anyhoo, dozed in the chair for a bit, twaz freezing in parts of the house too!
A happy 5.7 recorded and just about to make the morning cuppa for my lovely lady!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all on yet another frosty morning. A very normal 5.8 today. Managed to stay upright and out of the mud yesterday on our daily exercise. Infact the mud was so frozen it was quite treacherous in parts, wouldn’t have been such a soft landing this time if I had fallen! Off for another adventure again today, where I don’t know, but all from the door. We are very lucky to live where we do and not in the USA! 😱
Have the best lockdown day you can. 🙂
 
A whopping 10.6 for me this morning. That is my lack of a proper walk for 3 days. Increased my evening basal to 2 units last night but I must either get some ground covered today or increase it more.

@Anitram My retinal screening appointment letter arrived early December for 19th Jan but it has already been postponed until 16th Feb. I half anticipate it will be postponed again as the infection rate seems to be quite bad here. Hope yours goes ahead and there is nothing untoward. I had background retinopathy last time so really hoping no further changes.... or will happily accept positive changes!
 
4.8 happy wiv that
 
Morning

Still baltic here, was fine and cosy in my bed last night until my phone rang and had to take my arm out from under the quilt to answer it, Morrison's delivery guy - I'm stood at your door but don't think you can hear me knocking, told him it wasn't me and I'd phone my partner to go to the door, don't know why Bruce hadn't been hearing him but if he hadn't ripped the doorbell off the doorframe it wouldn't have been an issue! Spent the next hour blooming frozen and shivering and have hurt the top of my back shivering so much! :( Bruce also in the bad books as asked him to reject 2 substitutes but instead he rejected all 4, if I run out of Dove soap I will hold him responsible when my hands are even worse again!

Might have worked out why the water was dirty yesterday, possibly the fire service disturbed things when using hydrants nearby just after 5am, just down the brae and along the road a bit to the right there's a car park where 3 taxi's were parked, arson attack on them

Anyways 7.9 this morning
xx
 
Morning everyone.
4.7 for me today. 🙂
More snow overnight - it always looks lovely whenever there are no footprints or tyre marks.

Good morning all. 10 for me this morning. Bad night with neuropathy pain/dp to blame perhaps?
Freezing fog here, the cars are all white too.
A day to stay in the warm and maybe write some letters to send to people that I am missing.
Take joy in one thing you do today & take care.

Sorry to hear that @Iwillgetthere :(

I had a recent bout of neuropathy pain all down my right side recently & I find that the cold weather makes it SO much worse! So, I put the heating way up, so much so that I was overly hot & getting a bit headachey, used heat patches & hot water bottles to ease it a bit! Had it for over a week, the longest bout I’ve had, & nearly gave in, ordering Pregablin but, thankfully had just started to ease off starting from the shoulders down by the Monday, ordered the pills on Friday, & didn’t take them after all! I mostly feel freezing with sharp pain so, the heat helped but, I’ve also had it burning hot before as well, when ice packs helped!

Hope it settles down for you soon! A 🙂 just to offer sympathy as I know how all consumingly awful it can be!
 
Morning all. 6.1 for me this freezing cold, foggy morning
 
Forgot to say I got my second fine yesterday from London for Transport. Haven’t heard back about my appeal for the first one but will make an appeal on this one as well - not holding my breath and getting my card ready to pay the £160 they are requesting aaargh!! 😱
 
A 5.4 for me at 07:53. Garden is white over with frost and West Berks is foggy as well. Freezing trip across the garden to let the chickens out then the wife complained I had cold hands!
 
Morning all. :D 4.7 here...cwtsh up on the 4.something step, is there room for one more?

The sunrise at the beach this morning was stunning, but my mobile made it look average so I didn’t bother taken a pic. I inadvertently wandered onto the icy part of the beach - that’ll learn me for laughing at people slipping n sliding yesterday. o_O😉 Watch out for sneaky sheets of ice ev1.
