Group 7-day waking average?

Oo, Oo, Escher’s fab! When we were in the Netherlands visiting a Spanish friend who lives there, we took him to the Escher museum in The Hague - he’d never heard of Escher o_O and really didn’t want to go in but...he was absolutely blown away. Me too, it was brilliant!:D
 
Phew, I’ve submitted my tax return leaving me a couple of days to pay up.
It was our wedding anniversary yesterday and we stayed up late drinking a bit too much Crémant which somehow gave me a reading of 4.8 this morning! I’m not sure how that works?

Escher's work is fantastic. When I was a young student in the seventies, (and like Bill Clinton never ever inhaled 😎), I had loads of his prints on my walls. You could spend hours just getting deeply involved in the unreality of his images. Thankfully, as @Iwillgetthere and I have discovered, nature is providing real life tangible examples of his art
 
If you love Escher you’ll love the British made Monument Valley series of games (the original one, Forgotten Shores, Ida’s Dream & Monument Valley 2)! 😛😎
@Lanny thanks for the heads up. 🙂

Belated happy wedding anniversary @HenryBennett
4.8 after a slug or two of Crémant is very passable.

Morning everyone. 3.4 from me this morning. Haven't posted for a few days as last Thursday got a call to isolate as i'd been in close contact with someone who tested positive. By Friday morning i'd worked myself up, tried to get a lateral flow test but couldn't because of contact so decided to get a prooer test. It came back positive!!! I've been in shock as i've done everything we are told to do and, touch wood, i've had no symptoms so far but my mental health has been not great at all. Have had a few other pressures as well so all in all felt very down.
My blood levels have been shooting high and staying there for hours then dropping through lack of exercise so thats made me feel rubbish as well. Then, shock, woke to a hypo this morning.
I hope everyone stays safe and well. Have a good day whatever you plan to do. X
I did wonder how things were when you said you’d been told to isolate and then hadn’t been on line for a few days. Take care of yourself.

Hoping for the very best for you, get well soon {{{HUGS}}} 🙂
 
Good morning 5.1
 
Morning all,
Get well soon @freesia ! (Hugs)
A 6.1 for me today.
Had my first Covid-19 vaccine yesterday, turns out it was the Oxford/ AZ one!
Pfizer was last week ...
My DN was there beavering her little socks off bless her, they were all non-stop with the odd kitkat helping the day.

Very impressive our NHS!
Anyhoo they said it would take about 3 weeks to be effective and I am told a small Union Jack will appear under the skin! :D

Blessings Snowwy
 
06:36 BS 5.6 🙂 Yay! That feels like a HS, to me!:D😉

Got the insulin increases right then, either that or I’m starting to feel less sore & only a hint of tenderness beneath the right chin when I press? 🙄🙂

Loved last night’s episode of Death In Paradise & it was a really original plotted episode: it’s in its 10 series now & there have been episodes where I easily worked it out because I recognised the plots albeit, they were based/copied from the best & the Queen of Crime herself; Agatha Christie (eg. Beyond The Shining Sea part 2 based on Curtain: Poirot’s Final Case)! 😛😎:D

Up early again after all the extra rest of the last couple of days! 🙄

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
6.8 for me this morning.
Found out yesterday that waking the dead has been on the drama channel all week- finally, something to watch.
Might have to do some baking, have rather a glut of eggs.
Stay well all, special thoughts for@freesia and any one else affected by Covid 19. My thoughts are with you. X
 
7.6 for me this morning. Disappointed with that as I did a 5 mile brisk walk last night about 9pm, to try to help my levels as I was injecting corrections every few hours yesterday to try to bring me down and some just seemed to disappear without any effect at all. I was also hungry all day which is really unusual for me and I ate far too many nuts which didn't help matters. Anyway, hopefully today will be better.

@freesia and @SueEK hope you are both feeling better today either physically, anxiety wise or preferably both.
 
Morning all, 7.2 today, my cold is waning but my head rather ‘foggy’. Will attempt Sainsbury’s today. Hubby has jab booked for Monday so that is good as he is just 70 so must be doing well in our area.
Have a good day everyone x
 
Oh and welcome to the thread @goodybags Nice first reading!
