Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning and a .... 5.6 (?) From me.

I think my BG meter can't count. I am sure it should have said 5.2. How about a virtual HS?

Not much planned for today. Possibly shopping. Yawn.
 
04:29 BS 5.7 🙂

Already just had breakfast of some shepherds pie, cooked the other day, & about to settle down to a few hours of reading. 😛 I’ve a fancy to re read Agatha Christie’s “The Thirteen Problems” a book of Miss Marple short stories told by her guests every Tuesday night at her house of mysteries they’ve come across & she solves every one of them!😎

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

About to start the book. Incidentally, it was published in the US as “The Tuesday Club Murders”
 
Morning folks, 7.6 today. What a day yesterday, was within a hairs breadth of calling the police. My husband went to collect our 7 yr old grandson from school (we always have him on a Tuesday). He was told that his mum had collected him, he rang and I said maybe she wasn’t busy at work (hairdresser), had left early and forgotten to let me know (unlikely). Couldn’t get hold of mum. He went to their house, no-one there. He went to where she works, I’m trying to get hold of the school. She was at work and hadn’t collected him. Really panicking now. She managed to get hold of the school who said they thought he was in after school club. Hubby races back down to the school and yes he was there. OMG I can’t tell you the relief, what the hell were they doing saying he had been collected. Needless to say she will be having words today. That feeling in the pit of my stomach wouldn’t go all evening. I know it was a genuine mix up but really they should know where they are, we had 45 minutes of real panic.
Anyhow all’s well that ends well thank goodness. Hoping for a calmer day today lol x
Have a good day all x
 
Overcast and grey and a 5.7 for me.

I did a batch cook of chilli con carne yesterday afternoon. It’s a while since we’ve had spicy food so it seemed a bit too hot initially, but was perfect.

I watched the second part of the programme about Fred & Rose West. It seems we’ll never know how many girls they murdered and which of them was the driving force. Both evil.
 
Good morning Wednesday
5.5 today

Have a Great day everybody

I’m just sitting here, stunned at the thought of how awful it must have been. Thank goodness it was just a mix up.

Phew! But, what a worry for you! Hope it IS indeed a calmer day for you today! 🙂
 
Morning, 6.3 for me and happy not to be the first one up today @Gwynn , I’m really not an early morning person. Had a fabulous morning pottering at the market ...needed a nap in the afternoon though🙂 Didn’t buy any new projects, although I was tempted a few times...decided to finish the ones I have first...boy I’m getting sensible.

Oh my goodness @SueEK , that must have been the longest 45 minutes ever.

@Martin.A I imagine you weren’t expecting to come back from your break with an extra full car.

Well done @Ralph-YK

Have a great day everyone.
 
Morning all. Spike and correction overnight again. 6.6 this morning.
 
5.4 for me today. 🙂

Dez
 
Congratulations on your HS @Ralph-YK

@SueEK cannot imagine how terrified you were.

4.2 for me this morning after a hypo yesterday, don't very often get a reading below 4 on the meds I am on, but took me over 4 hours to get it back up to over 4, lots of jelly babies taken 2 at a time spaced out by 1/2 hour each time, think I am understanding what a hypo hangover is this morning as I feel like I have been on the beer all night. Going to attempt yoga and hoping to get to 5 during the day so I can go running.

Have a nice day everyone, my daughter is coming round later with my youngest granddaughter and going to pick mum up as well.
 
Morning all. 6.2 today.

Had a great walk yesterday from Cumbria to Yorkshire and back! It was so beautiful and peaceful, met two walkers and a cyclist! Very rough terrain at times, 600 metres of ascent and we got dived bombed by an irate lapwing, we obviously got to close to her nest, they are ground nesters. Saw the steam train on its way to Carlisle as we set of for the walk, and coincidentally on the way back to the car saw it returning. Mr Eggy and his fellow anoraks, sorry, trainspotters, were very happy! 10 miles walked altogether, a bit sunburnt in certain parts, like my left wrist.😳 But otherwise fine and no achy limbs. Off into town today, haircut for himself, some shopping and lunch. Another good day.

@SueEK hope your heart has stopped racing this morning, scary.
@Ralph-YK congrats on the HS.

Have a nice day folks. 🙂

4.8 No sun yet but happy with garden it's looking good.
 
Morning all. :D 8.9 here.

9am appointment with the vampires - hope it doesn’t start tipping it down while I’m waiting outside to be called in. Crazy weather! Was beautiful yesterday - went to Upton Castle Gardens with my bezzie. Had the place to ourselves. Lovely!

Great pics @eggyg. 🙂
 
A 5.6 for me at 05:17 on a beautiful sunny West Berks morning. Looking out of the (home) office window I can see two contrails but otherwise unbroken blue sky.

Have a great day everyone
