Group 7-day waking average?

That’s frustrating @Spozkins ...hope things settle for you soon.
Hats off to the House Specials.

@eggyg what are you going to make first with your new toy? I’m just back from walk and going to make some ...I’ll whisper...triple choc biscotti...which in theory will keep for up to four weeks...although unlikely while our son is still home 🙄🙂

I need to bake soon as well so inspire me @eggyg I made chocolate shortbread last Friday and Death by Chocolate on Saturday but my son finished the Death by Chocolate last night and I suspect my wife was on the chocolate shortbread last night as we have dropped from 5 pieces to only 1 🙂
 
Got this cute pic of Bubbles that I just had to share! Lol xx

Libre said 3.5 this morning. Finger prick came up 6.2. Tried again 5 mins later and they had obviously got their heads together and conferred and come to a sort of understanding that they would meet somewhere in the middle as Libre said 4.8 and finger prick 5.3. Both telling porkies first time around I think! To be fair the BG meter lost power just as the test strip made contact with my blood spot and I wasn't sure if it would be spoiled and it gave me the 6.2 reading second attempt on the same strip so I think maybe the test strip was compromised. And Libre sensoir is getting towards the end of it's life and I have had to tape it as it is lifting at the edges, so it has an excuse too.

Congrats to @EllsBells and @ColinUK and I can see that you are not trying to be cheeky and claim an House Special @Robin so I think we can let you have it on this occasion, assuming you got up then, but if you went back to sleep again then it doesn't count.

@Diabetic Frog Sorry to see that you had a rather disturbed/sleepless night and I hope it wasn't as a result of that other thread but those readings are all great! BG levels fluctuate all the time and meters are not accurate to the decimal place they display so I would very happily have those readings every night if you want to swap?? In fact I am rather envious!
 
7.1 today hanging around waiting to go for the annual review
just non fasting bloods (another change) and weight today, did my own BP's for 7 days, they said
add up all the sytolic and divide by 6 days really ??? it works out
to around 250 should be dead going by that so haven't filled that bit in as
do not understand it Im afraid they are going to have to do a bit of work
will get a phone call in 2 to 3 weeks with the results lucky me glad I don't rely
on them too much and can take care of myself( Phew that was a moan glad I
got that off my chest 🙂) good day all x
 
@Lanny Hope your trip to the hospital today goes smoothly. Wrap up warm with gloves scarf and hat!

@Spozkins So sorry you had such a bad hypo this morning. Hope you don't feel too knackered by it! Fingers crossed you can find a way to manage it the next few days/nights or ask to try a different basal if it becomes a repeated problem. Some basal insulins work for some people but not others. I know it is still early days with the Tresiba so give it a bit longer to try to get the dose right but don't be frightened to ask to change back or try Levemir if you can't balance it. I know Tresiba absolutely would not work for me.
 
@Gwynn Anyone guess what type of dog I like?

@SueEK You are way behind the curve..... we already have the answer!
PS. Your situation at work sucks, both for you having to train the new person when you are already snowed under with work and then for them being passed pillar to post once they are trained. Not fair at all!

Yup you got it Great Dane.

Her name was Thistle. I am trying to find some puctures of her. Imput them on a disc for safe keeping. but can I find them?

Point of note she was not £7000, this lockdown stuff and the intervening years have inflated the price many times over.

Love Great Danes but wouldn’t have one as some of them are really slobbery, my friends one used to shake his head and the slobber would hit the ceiling yuk!!

I’m guessing they mean average the systolic and average the diastolic separately. Hopefully that doesn’t give you 250 over anything!!
 
Great Danes on the whole do not slobber half as much as blood hounds. Some are better than others though.
 
Balcony gardening done. Although I now want another bamboo and another Cyprus totem

And I quite fancy an espalier fruit tree to go right up against the west facing brick wall.

Hanging basket and the little troughs are now full of fuchsias and that bamboo was a pain to free from the nursery pot. I had to saw it out.

Hopefully the banana will put on some growth this year and then I’ll see about moving it to a larger pot next year.

Tried something new this time instead of crocks and that was to shove cardboard at the bottom of the new pots with a hefty scoop or two or gravel. Hopefully that'll act as a bit of a sponge and help keep the banana and bamboo from drying out.

Was intending to pot up the palm but cut it back to let some new pups develop a bit on the mother plant and I’ll get something for it next year but it’s happy as is.

If you take 7 days blood pressure measurements and divide by 6, of course you’ll get a huge answer. You can only get a daily average by dividing by the number of days' readings. When OH did it, he was told to disregard the first day's reading, (in case he was nervous and sent it up more than usual, I think), so he had taken 7 days readings, he left the first one out, totalled up the following 6 days, then divided by 6.

Do blood hounds come with a Best of Clement Freud annual?
