Group 7-day waking average?

A restless night after the 2nd jab of Oxford noticed 2 peculiar happenings
during the night lost the feeling in the tips of the fingers in the
right hand and the right leg started to cramp up haven't had that for ages
both OK this am, other than that just a really sore
arm and a note round neck to ""approach with caution" I feel really grumpy
and if I had a box of chocs I'd eat the lot anyway moan over
and it is a lousy 7.6 for me this morning :( have a good day all.
 
Enjoy! We are heading to a garden centre during our car ride later, not sure what we can bring home in a Morgan though!
I always find it funny when I see people with big trees sticking out the sunroof after a trip to the garden centre, I did this last year with a big Acer tree, had to lift it onto the roof and lower it down used my wife's car as I didn't want to get my car dirty 🙂.
 
I have started testing again after a long gap ....last night was 14.6
this morning was 9.1
instead of half a gliclazide doc as told me to drop metformin night 2 to 1.... and take 1 gliclazide instead of half so im trying that now as well as changing my food.
I think food/carbs is the thing that is really going to help you @TIGGY just take your time but log your carbs it's a drag I know but it will work.
 
Congrats on the HS @Spozkins

A 5.0 for me at 05:54 this morning. Scattered clouds and blue sky is a welcome change from yesterday's constant rain in West Berks. Much more pleasant letting the chickens out this morning than it was putting them to bed last night.
 
It cracked us up too! When we found out the last episode was on the Sunday we were in Arran it was the first thing we said. Hope the TV reception is good. Apparently we have Wi-fi. I’m taking my iPad if we need to watch it on IPlayer.
I don’t want Ted to be H, or Kate or Steve.
Not very nice @eggyg but who the hells H, Kate or Steve? :D
lots of bearded young men with big drills (one for you @KARNAK )
Don`t do bearded young men @Bloden but big drills is another matter.o_O😉

A well earned 11.0 no Basal last night trying to get hypo awareness back so will stay higher for awhile.

Take care stay safe folks.🙂
 
And
@Clifton comment: "not helped by a phone call from my mother who tells me she has just started seeing someone 21 years her junior...I'm happy for her if she's happy but need to check the dude out! Dad passed 6 years ago and was 10 years her senior - so she's gone the other way!"

Spoiler Alert! Here's the other side of the coin.

I've often wondered why all the haters for step parents and suspicion for new partners of parents? I blame Disney myself, all those fairy tales about the wicked step-mother. Even the much loved "The Sound Of Music" had an element of step-mother hate. What's wrong with a mature adult with all their faculties in their latter years finding love again? With a younger or older person? Who's to judge? Why do children believe they know better than their adult consenting parent? Don't people want their parent to be happy?

Why are children, themselves often grown adult children settled with families of their own so opposed to it? Would they rather their widowed or divorced parent live alone and in misery for the rest of their natural lives, while they happily live their own lives? Is it about inheritance? Surely if a parent finds company again, is happy and frees their adult children from looking after them or being carers or having their own lives interrupted, that's a good thing?

In the UK we like to use care homes for our elderly parents, but elsewhere and on the continent like Southern Europe it's not unusual to see three or four generations living under the same roof or next door to each other. Some on here live with their elderly parent, which I admire. I wish I could still live with my lovely mum, now sadly deceased. Can't have it both ways. Why can't we just be kind, supportive and loving? Just saying.

Spoke to my daughters about this a while back.
It all got quite hilariously heated given it was hypothetical.

They said felt they would need to "vet" my new partner to make sure I wasn't making a mistake and that it would be creepy for me to date someone who was their age. Apparently that would be a "solid nope".
My response was coolness and calmness personified.
I said that they could take their childish, patronising nonsense and shove it where direct sunlight is a scarce resource and that it would be a cold day in hell when I ever needed them to either validate or check up on my life choices and that their "care and concern" was nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to exert control over me. I admit I may have gone from 0 to 100mph in a picosecond. 🙂
That provoked a response of "Ooooo daddy's been triggered. What a snowflake".
I then countered that it was laughable that they could possibly think they were in a better position to make such judgements than me. I finished off by saying "away and tidy your rooms". They are both in their 20s.
They then played their winning hand. "You do realise we'll be choosing and paying for your retirement home right?"
I made them tea and cake and all was forgiven.
Damn them and their retirement home ace. 🙂

I'm lost here. What's this H thing? I won't Google it so I can be surprised!
 
It's from "Line of Duty". H is a bent police officer who runs an organised crime group
 
Hi I’m a newbie to this forum but the moderator suggested I get stuck in, so here I am!
BG was 11.0 this morning after a 2.2 at 5am. NOT fun. thank you Dexcom for waking me up
 
Hi Becky and welcome to the thread. Sorry to hear you had such a nasty hypo last night. 2.2 is scary low!! Hope you are not feeling the hypo hangover effect too badly today.
Looks like you are straight into the swing of the thread with the Line of Duty comment. Look forward to you becoming a regular here.
 
@Spozkins.... Fantastic achievement of 2 House Specials in a row. Well done! Will be keeping my fingers crossed for you to achieve the ultimate accolade of a hat trick tomorrow!

Yay for you! I agree 100%.

My mother died over 20 years before my father. I always wished he’d found some companionship etc. He went the other way and would have nothing to do with women - to the extent of being embarrassingly rude if one was too familiar.

Top down you can bring home anything!

You mean you don’t watch Line of Duty? 😱
I thought everyone and his wife watched it! So my very cleverly thought out response to the dilemma of your Mum and her boy toy was wasted on you! 😛

I’ve never seen even a snatch of Line of Duty …. or Game of Thrones. I don’t know nuffink about neither! The same applies to my wife 😉
