Group 7-day waking average?

A mere 4.2 for me today. ;-)

Snap @ColinUK a 6.8 for me also. Glad you are feeling a bit brighter today. @Michael12421 hooe you can get that number up soon x @Bloden I love your positivity, I have been off work all week and been bored even though I’ve kept busy(ish).
My daughters 33rd birthday today, have got her a caterpillar cake and will run in Sains and get her some flowers which we are going to take to her doorstep today.
Have a good day everyone xx
PS I have woken up with a cold - boo!!
 
Morning

Very cold and frosty here today and Bubbles is being a royal PITA already, could be doing without that!

5.4 for me

Seems I had a delivery from Hermes to Bruce's on Thursday, he made me aware its soap, it must be the order Hermes "lost" as the replacement was delivered on Tuesday! I did contact them via live chat and they told me to keep it, goodness knows where they lost it but Bruce said the box was taped to the max and when he tried to open it the box was soaked right through and just crumbled away in his hands, yuck!

Morning all from a very white Cumbria. 5.1, so near, yet so far. It’s like getting five numbers on the lottery! Chance would be a fine thing! I suppose if I participated I might have a chance. Not sure on our exact plans today, Saturday is usually pamper day, nice, hot bubbly bath, face mask and a good book, but will probably go for a nice fresh walk first as it’s Groundhog Day but with frost! Have a great day and stay safe. 🙂
 
5.3 for me this morning but only because I corrected a slightly over treated hypo through the night and that was with no evening basal or bolus insulin, but I was in the red for too long and not going to come up naturally. Exercise regime is taking me down through the night again so I need to eat my low carb evening meal later. To be fair, I didn't have an evening meal last night which is probably why I hypoed, just a chunk of blue Stilton cheese because I couldn't be bothered and my breakfast had kept me going all day. Feeling fit as a butcher's dog though!

@ColinUK Pleased we were able to support and lift you a little yesterday. Hope today is better still.
Exercise is really helping me but I know it is hard to motivate yourself when you are feeling down.... Do my trick and have a Tina Turner party for one and sing and dance your heart out.... along with a little alcohol.... it does your soul good.... Other artists available... but can recommend Tina...
 
@ColinUK .... Should warn that I had a rather irritating "Ear Worm" for 10 days afterwards which was very difficult to evict but kept me company whilst I was out exercising... who needs head phones when Tina has invaded your brain.... good tempo for running to though as well as partying!
 
Ooh didn’t realise, very Happy Birthday greetings to you @khskel , you are Sharing your birthday with my beautiful daughter xx
 
4.5 and another late rise from my pit

Apparently Hermes live chat is a bot, I only needed to use a couple of weeks ago, when I had a parcel went AWOL , when it turned up it too looked like it had been through the wars.

Most live chats are actually AI powered chatbots. And most times you wouldn’t ever know.
However Hermes are c**p pretty much.

This was the first time I had problems with Hermes, and the second time I used the live chat I realised it was not not responding to my query properly. They featured the Hermes Bot on BBC 1 Rip off Britain, earlier this week.
 
DHL have been very impressively fast, on time & even early for 1 delivery, even across the pond to NI for my Apple Store online purchases this festive season past! 🙂

One year my Christmas present, very nicely wrapped in Christmas paper with 2 huge address labels front & back for both addresses, to my brother in London got lost & I sent him something else after Christmas. Then, just before Easter that year in April it came through to me absolutely covered in tape but, the items inside were ok. I was actually going to London to spend Easter with my brother anyway so, brought it with me & he was right chuffed to get a bonus pressie at Easter! 😱:D😎😛
