Group 7-day waking average?

4.8 yesterday and again this morning for me, busy looking after my granddaughters last couple of days youngest has got chickenpox at 15 months old.
 
6.7 this morning. Varies between 5.2 and 6.9
 
Oh dear, I am a failure today 🙄 . Wordle took me 6 and I woke up on 2.8 according to Libre but a finger prick straight after and before I swung my legs out of bed gave me a 4.4 so I am submitting that and not the 2.8. I can't claim the Libre result was a compression low though as it was a slow steady descent into a rather long stretch of red before I woke up. 😱 But.... to redeem myself, I did have a unicorn day yesterday..... just! Let's say I used the full width of my range. 🙄 Unfortunately with today's misdemeanor I am back to 8% below range for the last 7 days. 😱 I will be getting a black mark from the consultant if I don't pull my socks up before my next appointment.

I am going to complete the purchase on my new Freelander tonight. Have done all the HPI checks and stuff and nothing has been highlighted. It is very high mileage but the engine sounds good and starts and runs well and the body and interior are tidy. I tend to do very low mileage but due to geographical factors the bodywork/chassis corrodes more quickly here, so I am hoping that a younger, tidy, high milage vehicle will suit my needs better than an older lower mileage one. Hate the fact it is black but no choice and it seems positively space age inside compared to my 20+yr old girl who will sadly be going to the scrapyard. I will cry when they take her away. I have enjoyed our few years together. :(

Many congratulations to @eggyg on that fantastic double achievement. Most impressive, especially as you seem to be acquiring a herd of unicorns in recent days! TIR for the week must be looking pretty spectacular!

Hope you have a bit better reading in the morning @Michael12421 Those lows are very worrying but I know your levels, like mine, are rather unpredictable. I too would have thought the pasta would have kept you higher than that. Did you do a lot of extra activity yesterday that might have brought them down so low?
92% for the last 90/30/14 and 7 days! I’m nowt if not consistent! 8% between 10.1 and 13.3. My infrequent lows don’t show on the 90 day chart. I rarely look at my TIR so pretty pleased overall.

Good morning everyone.

Sadly, we had a terrible night. My wife believed that intruders had got into the house and taken some of her rice. She was upset. I tried very carefully to help her see that in actual fact she had used the rice (which she had ). Then the topic turned to her not being able to leave the house (because of her belief that intruders get in). She absolutely blew her top, went down the rabbit hole of demanding security cameras everywhere and alarms etc, and then sobbed her eyes out for 45 minutes before falling into a deep asleep. And I mean sobbed.I slept on the couch downstairs last night. Slept? Hardly.

BG should be raised with all the stress. It is 4.7. Amazing!

No idea if she will recover today or make the next few days very tough. No idea what to do as I can get no support as she is not a danger to herself or anyone else.

I am meeting up with a friend from the church this morning. Looking forward to that.

Have a great day today whatever you are doing
 
Motning all. 7.7 today. Its very dark out there atm, i really don't want to get up.
 
Good morning 8.0 today. TBH not unsurprisingly high really.
Having given in to temptation yesterday evening
on the way home from work yesterday,
went to supermarket for milk was tempted by freshly baked white loaf
which I then sliced thinly and ate a few slices of instead of dinner
buttered & topped with peanut butter.

I will slice the rest of the loaf (thinly) and freeze it

Have a great day everybody 😎
 
6.3 this morning. After a very disturbed night of supposed sleep even by my standards.

Flu jab was fine yesterday and had a giggle with the pharmacist which was fun.

Off out in a few mins to head to physio so not taken painkillers yesterday and won’t until the session is done. Then driving for two hours to the middle of nowhere to help a friend sort of contents of 9 shipping containers of furniture he’s inherited by default from someone in the US.

ISVA catch up was decent. No news really but it’s all ticking along. Other lawyer stuff is getting more complicated but each complication improves our case and likely boosts the potential settlement value.

And I’ve been asked to join what’s effectively the steering committee for Survivors UK. I’ve said yes I’d be delighted to give something back to an organisation I’m so grateful for.

The woodworker thing on C4 yesterday was lovely and the woodworker of the week made a stunning piece.

Masterchef will all come down to who makes any mistakes I think as they’re all so good it could be anyone who lifts the trophy.
 
6.2 for me this morning. Taking youngest for bloods today (at children's ward as they have anxiety and phlebotomist was unable to get them) so I'm hoping that doesn't take too long or distress youngest too much
 
Morning all. 6.4 on this very wet day and set to continue.

Nothing much happening today, I may just read my book all day. Caught up with GBBO yesterday whilst ironing. Had to laugh at Syabira making the feathers for her Garibaldi biscuits. They were excellent feathers TBF though.

@ColinUK I’d love to come ratching through old furniture with you. Sounds right up my street.

Have a great day all. 🙂
PS anyone heard from @Pattidevans? Hope all is well and she’s just taking a break.
 
Another near hit (or is it miss) - 5.3 this morning. 🙂
@Bloden if you're using a pc/laptop, try logging out of this site and re-starting it. If it's iPhone or Android , I'm afraid I can't help there.

Morning everyone!

Got my new car last night and rather excited to wake up and see it standing on the drive outside this morning. Needs a few minor things doing to it (new key fobs being the first issue as the rechargeable batteries in them both are dead/dying and they are both pretty badly worn.... well they have been travelling around in peoples' pockets for 12 years!) but ordered a replacement unit with battery off ebay for under £10 so will see how that works out and then get a second if all goes well. Unusual for me to be excited about a car!

Anyway, to business..... I woke up to one of these this morning

I wasn't quick enough to snap a photo of my graph but it had a steady descent from low 9s and rising at bedtime down to 5s by 4am and then levelled out nicely so looks like I got my bedtime correction and basal insulin spot on last night.... for once! 🙄
 
6.7 this morning

Think my headache has lifted for the first time in weeks. Until yesterday it varies between “bearable/unbearable with as many painkillers as I could take” so maybe the preventatives are kicking in but right now it’s improved to “no painkillers and I don’t even think i have a headache”. Going into the office so will take some painkillers in readiness.

Well done on your HS and happy new car day. 🙂
