Group 7-day waking average?

10.4 :(
Back to normal (too many around 10-12) after a really good three days, (mostly 6-8) but need more good days.
May console myself by trying to get a coffee-on-the-beach. Much too busy Sat (queue of over 10) but as it's currently raining and cool may have a better chance.
 
11.0 this morning. But worried about the heatwave after the shenanigans easier this week.

Just a reminder if you are going out in the heat of the day wear something white or light. On Monday I saw woman of 60+ with a BMI more tban half her age out walking. She was obviously trying toook sporty in an elbow length T-shirt and knee length shorts but they were jet black and her face lookedike a beetroot.

And don't walk your dog in the heat of the day. They could burn their paws as pavements could hit 70 degrees or more! And they come with a fur coat.
 
Good morning - 5.7

My school have said Monday and Tuesday are going to be half days finishing at 12:30 because of the heat. 🙂
 
Morning all. Lots of peculiar little clouds today, but ho hum the sun it shineth.

5.8 this morning. Did have to have 2 x 2 JBs in the night, but must have eaten the 2nd two in my sleep! Am saving all the green ones for @eggyg , but note... I'd like a few black ones back!

Hey ho.... 6 for lunch in the garden today...the seventh has Covid, as do our friends who are supposed to be arriving Thurs for a few days. Fingers crossed they are testing negative by then.

Once again @MeeTooTeeTwo congrats on the HS (becoming tedious now...you deffo need to share!)

Have a good day all and stay cool.

I can’t guarantee the black ones’ condition! Fluffy, rock hard and pale, or in fact in Mr Eggy’s tummy! :rofl:
 
3.2 for me on this Libre senor which I am persevering with, as after about 10 finger pricks yesterday I came to the conclusion that it is a steady 2mmmols lower that a finger prick and I can work with that.... and "stuff my TIR" :( ..... SO.... that makes it a House Special for me this morning too 😉 :D 😎 "Shy bairns get nowt", so I am claiming it! 🙄
Congrats to my fellow achiever this morning @MeeTooTeeTwo

Very surprised to see we have had a drop of rain overnight but seems like it has been the same for others across the country. Garden needs it so not complaining and it has cooled things a little. Doubt it went much beyond the surface though.
Keeping the curtains drawn on the south facing windows is key to keeping my house cool and comfortable but having 2 ft stone walls helps as well. Yes that means it is dark indoors but I can go outside if I want light. The coolness is precious!

@goodybags can you not find them with Find My…. or have you got the case and lost the AirPods themselves?

thanks for the tip, @ColinUK
I’ve put the AirPods back in the case,
but don’t know where I’ve then put the case down, will Google and see if I can locate them somehow (using one of the iPads they are paired to) as far as technology goes sometimes I’m Techno-Dumb ..lol
 
Congrats on the HS @rebrascora. I'm very jealous of your 2ft stone walls. I think we'll all be decamping to your house for the beginning of next week 😉

Eek! Better get the hoover out then.... and then dust it off before I make a start!
 
Insulatard didn’t do so well last night. Woke to a 7.1. We had a naughty chippy tea last night and I overestimated the novorapid needed. I headed off an almost hypo but think it overcompensated. It took a while to come back up then went into the 9s overnight. Better day today I hope.
 
Newbie joining in
My morning one was 6.2 as opposed to a 5.8 yesterday.
 
Late on parade. 9.5 this morning. I blame FOTF. Yesterday’s basal testing and subsequent tweaks were a success. 🙂

Bloden has decided she doesn’t do walkies atm - don’t blame her, it was already heating up at 8am down the beach today. I was tempted to fling myself into the sea...steady on!
 
Err afternoon everyone. 12.3. I sorta abandoned my previously half written post and got distracted 🙄

Thanks for all the FOTF advice yesterday. Did a lower carb brekkie and managed to contain it today. So when I can adjust and count myself, will revisit this. (I did do this with libre, much scanning and caution with snacks on hand if I needed it).

Hope you all manage to stay cool today. Got the fan on and chilling like a popsicle here :D

welcome to the thread barrowman :D
 
Hello Sunday - 6.8 this morning

have spent a few hrs this weekend looking for the missing AirPods
I’ve tried following the advice of @ColinUK
by using FindMy” (something I didn’t know even existed before)
but as they are offline, it seems the Ipad can’t see them.

Good news is.. Ive found a cheap set of Bluetooth headphones in Lidl
think im less lightly to loose them than something as compact as AirPods :rofl:

they will probably turn up sometime in the future (most likely when of shortly after we eventually move)
the last update I had was solicitors are still waiting on probate,
although slightly worryingly nearly a fortnight ago the estate agent who’s selling this property
himself suggested we might be better looking at buying something different 🙄

hope everybody’s relaxing in the shade (unless working)
Have a great day 😎

We’ve got two foot sand stone walls too. A week at Barbara’s then just pop west 50 miles and stay a week at ours! Only got bunk beds though! 😛
