Group 7-day waking average?

Well when my wife was away a few weeks ago for the week, I ended up saying goodnight to Alexa just for the comfort of her voice, I was missing my wife :( sad but true.

I'm going with your explanation because despite looking slowly I didn't find anything lol but what is the connection with the wording House Special... the hand print is still stinging hehe

I could understand it if I was using any colloquialisms but I am not. Despite not living in Tthe North for over 40 years, I have an accent.

I’m sorry but I can’t understand what you’re typing. Do you have subtitles?

Trying to get a decent signal for this bloomin' BT Mini Hub is a bit like those TV aerials of yesteryear. 😡
You had to stand with one foot in the cat's litter tray and your right arm at exactly 60deg from horizonal for something to happen. o_O

When we first moved into our old house we got about 500Kb broadband and the only place we could get even 3G was first floor south end. This meant laying in the bath!

I have a routine set up on Alexa to turn off all the lights and check the perimeter alarm is set etc when I say goodnight.

I don't know why we call it a house special to be honest, American's call 5.5 (or 100 in their measurements) a unicorn xx
 
Date update....

Oh @ColinUK i am beyond excited!!
I think the tongue hanging out emoji gives you a good indication of the interest level!!
Let us know where you are meeting ( safety reasons, we aren’t going to stalk you!) so we can all enjoy ‘going out!’
 
Good afternoon all. 7.1 @ 6.26am / pt water / got ill so wondered about my bg so took it ... 7.1 @ 10.25am! Think it was my ticker. Too much playing Millionaire on my mobile, get agitated when it gets near the million so bro has banned me from playing. :D I can't take the excitement!
 
Oh my goodness, so much happening on here today, I’m bound to forget somebody.
Firstly and importantly @Gwynn hope today is a better day for you and your wife, I feel for you both.
@MeeTooTeeTwo what a nightmare don’t you just want to jump up and down and scream!!!
@ColinUK good on you, you obviously made a great impression 😉
@Kaylz dont take any notice, some people are just phlebs 🙄
@MAC2020 Happy Birthday and well done on the HS
Well I’m bound to have forgotten someone or something else I was going to mention but the brain stops working when I leave work lol x
 
I like the idea of getting a unicorn 5.5. I'll try hard for one tomorrow 🙂

My wife is a lot better today thank you. It' a real roller coaster here and has been for 35 years. One minute I'm the hero the next I'm the devil himself, in her eyes. Oh well, I will come out from hiding in the cupboard in a while. It's such a shame. Not keen on teak veneer. Ha ha.

@Gwynn I'm glad things are a bit better for you and your wife today. 🙂
I was told that "normal" BG readings were between 4 and 7, so 5.5 is straight down the middle. 😎
But let's not start another "Brexit" discussion and just stick with the old time honoured traditions. 🙂

Replying late is tricky, there are so many people to respond to
@ColinUK belated happy birthday. Lovely choc cake. Second date, oh do tell where you are going (whoever said we won't stalk you was lying) its way to much excitement to miss
@Kaylz sorry that you are having a bad time. Its hard sometimes to avoid people like that, esp when you are tring so hard.
@MAC2020 Happy Birthday
@Paulbreen when i first joined i thought that HS stood for "HIGH SUGAR" And did not understand why i wasn't being congratulated on my awful results.

So back to the thread, i was 7.1 on waking rising to 9 at breakfast.
I have been having some very dark days, but today managed a walk by the sea, in the sunshine, which has cheered me up.
Still no sign of the jab despite being in geoup 4, so frustrated, as i want to feel safer enough to go for a sight test for new glasses after the jab and two weeks has passed.

I did make a post saying "HOW NOT TO RUN 55 MILES" on BBC I PLAYER is well worth a watch but don't want to spoil what happens

My "goodnite" routine has Alexa saying "Time for bed said Zebedee", turning off the TV and all NowTV, Amazon Fire and Bt connect boxes. She also turns on the bedroom lights to a suitable sleep inducing level, plays Classic fm and in the winter turns on the electric blanket.
Well she used to, SOB!!
