Group 7-day waking average?

Just back from a lovely 7 and a bit mile ramble in the woods.
Saw my first fox of the year. 🙂
Congratulation to Martin @Anitram on the HS

We have a beautiful looking fox living in our shed in the back garden.

There's another young one that wants to move in with us. He follows me when I talk to our cats in the street - clearly reacting to tone. The cats are less pleased about this.
 
Thanks everyone for all the good wishes.
6.2 for me this morning with a very wiggly line between 8 and 10 most of the night.... Not sure if that was because I kept waking up every hour to scan in case I dropped low again like last night. Spent all day yesterday injecting corrections of Fiasp having eaten no appreciable carbs and still shot myself quite large bolusses for the food I did eat. Not sure if it is due to vaccine or not as have been having problems with this the past week before vaccine but was more pronounced yesterday. Upped my Levemir to a whopping 20 units this morning to see if that will help.
No photo of blue hair I'm afraid because hair dye didn't take, despite test sample working fine. May try again tonight. Maybe some alcohol will improve the outcome... Oh wait a minute! I tried that yesterday celebrating my Diaversary.... maybe it was the wrong sort of alcohol. Wil try gin tonight, that always seems to have a positive impact on BG levels so maybe it will work on hair dying too. No cake for me, but definitely a pot of olives and either roast chicken or lamb shoulder.... can't decide yet.
Didn't start the day too well today as I managed to pour boiling water over my hand whilst defrosting the water trough and with wearing wooly gloves, I didn't realise at first as hands were cold and then by the time I felt it, it took a few moments before I managed to get my scorching glove off. At least there was plenty of snow to stick my hand in to cool it down straight away! Hoping I won't lose the skin, but it is sore!

@Anitram Congrats on another House Special

@Maca44 It is hard to imagine you feeling low looking at your profile picture.... Along with your Grandad dying quote, it always puts a smile on my face. Hope your spirits lift soon. If you want to get anything off your chest, we are here to listen and support.

Off now to hoist the pump out of my septic tank outflow sump and see if I can fix it as drain levels getting worryingly high and toilet needs flushing!! Why is it I seem to spend all my days handling excrement of one sort or another... animal, bird and now human!! Must have seriously sinned in a previous life!

Thanks, and I assure you that it was a one-off test and not the average of several fingers....!

So pleased to hear it! The thought had not crossed my mind! 😱
 
Pleased to report my sewage problem is now fixed. Oh the joys of being able to flush again!!

@rebrascora Happy Birthday, have a good day.
Morning all 5.7 for me. Another day of working from home. Hope to fit in a walk later. Planned one for yesterday but as i sent my last email, the attachment i had spent 2 hours working on disappeared! Took me so long to do a search to find it and by that time hubby was home and i needed to get tea on. Last day of work today for a week.
@Bexlee i hope you are going to have a good rest next week.
To any parents out there who have been home schooling, you have been doing a brilliant job, now take a break.
Have a good day everyone.

Odd that: COMPLETELY passed me by; all my family too as there were quite a lot of phone calls yesterday around the family with the CV vaccines! It just WASN’T on our radars at all: just goes to show how skewed CV has made things; nope, it was ALL about booking online to get CV vaccines yesterday as NI is currently doing tier 5 now, 65 to 69 year olds, which meant most of my older siblings & their spouses! I’m in tier 6 so, not yet for me! 🙄
 
01:24 BS 7.5 OK ish considering midnight LR was a bit late: bunged in as soon as I got up; a bit slow responding to alarm & dozed off! Couldn’t get back to sleep as it’s VERY noisy outside with a gale blowing! 😱 that’s me covering my ears!o_O Got up & had breakfast already & watched last night’s Death in Paradise: a so so episode that wasn’t that hard to work out but, there’s definitely a hint of romantic entanglements ensuing; mixed feelings about that as I didn’t really like that in previous series!🙄

As already said I got a flurry of phone calls yesterday around the family about booking vaccines! I THOUGHT I was at the age where I’m getting a bit left behind by technology but, some of my older siblings, bless them & I DO love them really, are technophobes/dinosaurs & I got requests to do the online booking for them! o_O🙄:D😉 It’s the 2 vaccines they’re getting pretty much straight off, next few days, & then again in April.

Chinese New Year IS normally a big thing, it’s bigger than Christmas, but, it just wasn’t mentioned at all & I completely forgot about it! It’s the year of the OX as well which is my younger sister’s sign so, she just turned 48, shush that’s just between us 😉😉, She’s a cow & I’m a pig!:D😉

A very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
Morning all,
6.1 again for me this morning.
HbA1c and foot check Monday morning... hoping and praying for a good result!

Blessings Snowwy
