Group 7-day waking average?

It’s very cold here too so, I’m cooking a chicken curry to warm me up! Haven’t had a curry in AGES, in fact, I can’t remember when? Will need extra bolus, of course, but, well worth it! Put in mini chicken breasts cut up into fairly largest chunks, frozen peas, frozen diced onion & fozen saute potatoes in a foil lined oven tin then, cooked the curry paste watered down, added it over the lot & just stuck it in the oven for 40/45 minutes! 😛 REALLY looking forward to it & I’ll see if I guess the bolus right first go &, if not, add corrections later: may have to do that anyway as the fat will maybe need a split bolus; haven’t done this in a while & you can watch this space tomorrow to see how I do?🙄
 
Probably not the best thing to eat.
At bedtime I'll munch a couple of oat nobblies (Morrison's version of hobnobs) or digestives to keep my levels up lol xx
 
G'day all. Freezing fog here but now bright sunshine, looks nice out. Gonna brave the Covid to go over the road and pay the bills, no choice. Haven't measured, too busy pigging on comfort food. Kraft cheese slice butties for breakfast. A doc on the telly this morning said food addiction is as bad as alcohol and drugs and people will hurt themselves to do it. He's right. I'm ruining my diary tho' so hopefully ocd might come to the rescue as I put a smiley face on every entry and it's already got 😡 faces on the second page in. Damn it.

@Robin Happy Birthday hope you have a lovely day. 🙂
 
I came home from hospital on Thursday as finally weaned off oxygen and back to testing own bgs I was 10.4 at 9.30am this morning. My close up vision been too blurry last few days to post.
Glad to be home in own bed and chose own food. Catching up on sleep
 
That's excellent news that you're home Jade. 🙂
 
@Jade Delighted to hear that you are off oxygen and home now. Hope you continue to make good, steady progress. Please keep us posted with how you are getting on when you are able.
 
So glad you're back home @Jade. Rest and take care.
 
So glad you are home, how lovely to recover properly in your own surroundings @Jade
 
Morning everyone. 4.6 for me. Its bright but cold here, can't even hear the birds today. Not much planned today, cleaning, vaccuuming......oohh i know how to enjoy myself! Might go for a walk but the only place around here without getting into a car is to tramp around the roads/houses. The canal has a nice walk but i don't do that by myself and OH is working this weekend.
Congratulations @rebrascora on the HS.
@Robin, Happy Birthday. Enjoy your riding ooopppps sorry...your essential care for the welfare of an animal.
@Bexlee i hope your first week "back" was ok.
Have a good day everyone.
It’s been very very busy. Nuts really. I know a lot of the world think teachers are sitting round doing nothing and having a nice holiday (if only!) but if they could see what we’re actually doing. I’m getting used to google class meets and uploading my carefully crafted PowerPoint and selected exam questions and quizzes to check they’re doing the work and fielding questions via email that I had already answered in the instruction or in the 1st email! I’m a bit of a dinosaur or maybe a technophobe with computers really. I accidentally moved something into the google bin that turned into tears and total hilarity in the end! Looking forward to next week I might know what I’m doing

Hope everyone had a good day. 5.2 this morning but the was the 2nd time I woke up 😉

@Bexlee, all you teachers are doing a brilliant job. As a TA i know how much work is being done, going above and beyond. I've been supporting in class, helping find/make resources for our teachers to put online, making packs up to be collected etc as we do not to "live" teaching (except for key worker children) but are available any time. The amount of work involved in teaching has to be seen to be believed and anyone who says different needs to spend a week working in a school. Keep up the good work. You are brilliant.
Have a break as well though, home/work balance...remember?!x
 
06:04 BS 8.7 JUST about a 🙂 So, ok it’s a bit higher than target waking BS but, not TOO bad after a curry!😛 I did need a correction but, I think of it as more of a split dose albeit 2 hours later: before curry 09/01/21 11:45 BS 7.0 after curry 13:47 BS 11.0 NR 40 & correction 10 units!🙄 Not bad as I’m out of practice & there’s another portion left I can eat later today!😛

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Still very cold & off to a freezing kitchen for eggs, ham & tea for breakfast! 🙂

Wrap up & keep warm on the inside! It’s Sunday so, have an easy lazy day! :D😎😉

Oh yes! Just watched the new series of Death in Paradise on iplayer yesterday: episode 1 on Thursday that I missed/forgot; ALWAYS look forward to DIP every January for some Caribbean sunshine & murder to warm up the Winter blues! 😛:D😎 A certain previously left cast member has come back & a very welcome sight it was!🙂
 
Slightly disappointing 6.0 for me this morning. Probably the scones (small) that I had yesterday morning, and the pasta for tea.
 
4.6 for me. You all get up early one day I will be first,
 
5.2 this morning.

I discovered my secret to getting blood out of my fingers (recently I have been having some trouble with that), if I keep my feet warm then it all seems ok and the tiny blood droplet flows easily. How odd is that.
