Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 6.1 here. Another day out today, going to Blenheim horse trials to watch the dressage. And if daughter has her way, a trip round the shopping village, where I stand in my £5 fleece gilet wondering how anyone could pay quite so much for the ones on display there.
 
Morning! 6.4. Nurse appointment today, shall see how much weight I've officially lost... (I checked on my scales last week and looked like a kg then)

I hope they are found not guilty. :rofl:

And it was 4.8 for me this morning. 🙂

Good morning everyone! Waking BG was 5.9 today, not too bad, especially given some pesky lows around bedtime (when will I learn not to snack and take insulin just before bed!).

Going to try a basal test from lunch to dinner today to see how my Levemir is holding up in that part of the day. I predict feeling pretty hungry by the evening lol !

Hope everyone has a good day!
 
After a restless night it is 6 for me this morning. Have a good day everyone
 
6.3 this morning.
Might go down to witness The Queue but will not be joining it as I wouldn’t want to put my ankle through all that standing.

Talking of ankles, I saw this elsewhere…

You lot sparked my interest so I had to. And I make no apologies.

Morning,7.1 think I'm going to try a greggs pain au chocolate this morning with a flat white.(if they not sold by the time I get there they open 6 so there's poisbity)

Anyway looks like I need to reduce my even radio again as I dropped for the past 3 evenings but I've actually put my backfast one up.. I sure; there's something listening and as soon as you say to to yourself great that working it's like let's change things 🙂

09:31 BS 6.2 Ah! Better! 🙂

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

+6 NR seems to have worked better with the BS control yesterday & I’m in target range this morning: a bit lower than I’d aimed for, 7-8mmol, as I don’t want to come down too much too fast; maybe go back to +4 today as my ear has improved? :confused: I’m still a wee bit tingly! Neuropathy is an added little bit of a balancing act in that I don’t want to come down too fast!🙄

Definitely a nip in the air the last few nights & gave in switching the heater on last night set to 20C, won’t come on at all at a lower temperature, JUST because I’m tingly from the fast drop overnight yesterday morning & the heat helped: I REALLY feel the colder temperatures! 😱 It’s time for the duvet again as even the quilt/throw, for the autumn, isn’t quite enough: as usual in the summer I was just using the empty duvet cover!:confused:

Ah, glad we are in good company, OH, son, and I all failed this morning. It’s not a proper word, nobody uses it in the U.K.!

Fasinated by all the comments I decided to have a look and became a Wordle Newbie! Where do you find the answer? I got l the letters bar the middle one and know it is not a V or a T. Lots would fit like G or C?

Good morning everyone.

BG 5.3
BP 119/76
Pulse 63

Got up at 4am and spent 2 hours trying to suss out a coding error in my App where something should have been displayed but wasn't. I went into every nook and cranny in the relevant parts of the code. Almost gave up. The code seemed fine. It suddenly dawned on me that late last night I had resized the area where the item should have been displayed...bingo...it turned out to be just one character space too small. Nothing to do with the code at all. Doh!!!

What a lot of wasted time. Feels good now that I have sussed it out though.

Have real empathy with your plight @Gwynn. Spent a couple of hours yesterday only to find that the code did not work because I had omitted a colon from a quite complicated statement extracting the temperature from the output of a sensor.

For reasons that are too complicated to go into, I am trying to make an ultrasonic tape measure using one of the ultrasonic sensors that are fitted to those doors that open when you approach them. This involved some breadboarding and devising python code on a raspberry pi to read the sensor. Got that done but had the problem that the measurements need to be corrected because the speed of sound is dependent on temperature. So, temperature sensor went onto breadboard and more python code devised to read it. Thats where the missing colon was one of the bugs encountered. Next problem was to integrate the ultrasonic sensor code with the temperature sensor code. That has now been done and debugged and I am now confident that the ceiling is 173 cm from my desk. I have an ultrasonic tape measure with temperature compensation.

Next problem is to make it portable, there is limited fun in measuring the height of your ceiling. First problem is to get it off the breadboard and into a box and second problem is to make it independent of being plugged into the Pi. Got some ideas about that but then I will need to write and debug more software. There is also the problem of figuring out why the ultrasonic sensor coupled to a Pi gives different readings to when it is controlled by an arduino. Makes you wonder how it would behave if controlled by a PI Pico.

Who needs wordle or saduko when you have got a computer.

By the way, got a 7 this morning. I'm wondering if you can take the back off my Accucheck Nano and wire it into a raspberry pi.
