Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all,
6.3 for me today.
My wife has her first Covid jab this morning, they are really cracking on in our area.
Light dusting of snow overnight but we had some good sun yesterday and built a snowman for the grandson!

Blessings Snowwy
 
5 on the nose (and finger) this morning. 🙂

Thursday morning 5.8
 
A downer today at 4.8. Well, only slightly down.

App update yesterday went well but took 17 hours to complete. Sad, but I gotta do something.
 
4.3 and sick of the local DN at surgery, cant be bothered to phone just asks for my morning stats via tx was then told to go back to 4 x 500mg of Met as readings so high, never above 5 first thing even in 3's. She was reading some other persons readings after I got her to call me so back to 1x 500mg, shocking, yes I know we are all under stress but my god this is rubbish 😡
 
Another 7.3 for me today. DIL got a call from her surgery for her vaccination to be done Saturday as she has asthma, she is 37, so very pleased with that.
Did my first lateral flow test last night which showed I don’t have Covid so that's good too!!
Only day off this week as colleague off and so busy so going in tomorrow, best get cleaning today.
@MAC2020 thats not good, glad you got a proper answer eventually though x
Have a good one all x

@Maca44
good job your on the ball and understand your levels
like you say they are under a great amount of pressure
BUT getting patients readings mixed up to then ask someone to increase medication which isn’t needed, like that is inexcusable.
 
Morning good peeps. 4.9 here. :D

Oh no, that biting wind is back.o_O It’s a two-bobble-hats day in that case.😳

I received two early birthday cards yesterday - one of them had a fold-out unicorn jumping over a rainbow that wobbles every time I walk past it...Soooo childish LOL but it made my day! 😛 Hurry up and end lockdown, my brain’s turning to mush!

WRAP UP WARM folks, it’s c-c-cold out there.😎
 
Morning everyone. 4.7 for me. Another day working from home.
 
Morning from a chilly -7C Angus

Well Bruce got home at his usual time last night, there was some excitement in getting the bus though, he gets a lift from work into the town bus stop but as they were driving along they saw the bus coming, turned down a road and round a few corners to try and beat it to the next bus, Bruce in the back with the child lock on the doors, rolling down the window to use the handle on the outside, his workmate pumping the horn, Bruce jumping out before the car stopped and shouting, they were quite surprised when the bus driver actually stopped and waited on him! LOL

Anyway its an unexpected 4.9 this morning on the Contour Next One, Libre scanned to 5.2 though, can I partly claim it? LOL

Oh I meant to mention yesterday, that 1 bedroom my grandad looked at and put in for will be his new place from the 15th March
xx
 
@Bloden @freesia odd that us Tresiba'ers have woken in the 4's today! LOL xx
 
Morning all. 6.3 today even after a 13 mile walk yesterday. I know, I’m wonderful for my age! 😉 It was a beautiful day, snow and sun but when that sun went in, by heck it was parky. Not even aching this morning, that could all change mind. I can hear Mr Eggy oohing and ahhing whilst attempting to get out of bed. Wuss! It’s another bright and beautiful morning, had another dusting of snow overnight and it’s presently recording -4.5 on our temperature gauge. Somehow don’t think we’ll be going for such a long walk today. Have a great day, whatever you’re doing.🙂 edited to say, temperature now -5.5!

Started snowing yesterday & there’s a thick layer out there this morning just when I was doing the wheelie bin around 5pm: good thing I did as it had just started then; MUCH more was to come & it was FREEZING last night! o_O

Binged watched all 6 episodes of Celebrity Best Home Cook in a duvet day yesterday & Ed Balls is a really good cook: excellent at kids Birthday cakes too; that Pirate Ship cake was IMPRESSIVE! 😛:D😎

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉 Keep warm by drinking something hot to warm you on the inside & then, wrap up well especially, if you’re heading out!😱
