Group 7-day waking average?

Forgot to add, I got my Retinal Screening results back from Tuesday's appointment and I have the all clear which is fab as I had a bit of background retinopathy last time, so I was rather anxious as to what they would find this time. Have to say I was the only patient in the waiting room and it all felt very safe, if that helps to reassure anyone else with an appointment coming up.
 
A very late post after a very slow start to the day. I had my vaccine yesterday afternoon, and felt fine then. During the night felt feverish, had legs of lead this morning, but paracetamol and sleep have done their job and now feeling fine. Levels good overnight at around 5 throughout so no worries there.

Had a bit of week last week after ending up in A&E with kidney stones!!! I have never known pain like it but it seems I have passed them so hopefully that is the end of it.

Glad to have recovered from that and ready to stargo on the automode on my 780 pump on Tuesday.

Lots to catch up on so I shall have read through this thread to find out the recent news.

That is excellent news.
 
03:22 BS 6.5 🙂 BS yesterday was a bit high during the first half of the day but, got a handle on it, with a bit of extra NR, & it settled before I went to bed around 20:00. Still stuck with the same LR dose, though & I wake a bit early, after yesterday’s long sleep, on a pretty decent figure so, I’m pretty happy with that! My asthma & breathing has started to ramp up again so, doubled the doses of both inhalers but, still pretty mobile albeit, a bit short of breath, at this stage anyway!🙄

Spent the day listening to an audiobook of Far From the Madding Crowd Thomas Hardy: a very old recording but, excellently read, stood out from the crowd of other narrators when choosing it, by George Hagan; background ambient noise was very loud at times as it was recorded in the days before digital, it did say on the info page but, I figured since the narrator was so good that I would put up with that! I’d forgotten how funny it is, didn’t come through in the Carey Mulligan film at all, & it was absolutely brillantly done by the narrator! :D I first read that book over 30 years ago, in high school, & I’d forgotten most of it until watching the film reminded me & I remembered more as I heard the book being read! I highly recommend the George Hagan recording!😛😎:D

Just finished eating breakfast & thought of posting! A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
A 5.6 for me just now after a 4.9 at 3:15am. Mind you I have been up since 3am bursting with renewed energy, enthusiasm and vigour for some odd reason. Going for a walk shortly even though it's still dark. The birds are up though!!

Have a great day!
 
Morning all,
A 6.1 again today...
Striving to get back in the fives!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Notwithstanding a roast dinner last night with Yorkshire pud & roast potatoes I’ve woken to a 5.2.

I started the week on a 5.2 then high 5’s all week and the average Monday to Sunday is 5.5.

Three weeks today that I had the Pfizer jab, so a high level of immunisation 😎

Please can it stop raining.

Reading a book, hearing a piece of music or discovering a favourite album you’ve not listened to for many many years is like bumping into an old friend you’ve not seen since school days. A great feeling.
 
Good morning
5.2 @ 6:30
 
Would you believe it, another 5.2 here in sunny Lytham. Yessss.
