Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. 6.3, and it’s dry and calm. Yesterday was absolutely awful, so cold too. Fingers crossed for a better day.

Mr Eggy is hoping his water irrigation system arrives from B&Q today. As we’re going on holiday for two weeks beginning of next month he wants his little darling seedlings and plants to be safe from over/underwatering neighbours! But firstly he needs to drill a hole through my kitchen wall to get water pipes to the greenhouse. 🙄 Noise and, no doubt, dust will be the order of the day.

I’ll just keep out of the way! Bird feeders need filling up so I’ll just stay in the garden and pull a few weeds up. Pointless doing any housework. 😉

@ColinUK sounds like a great day.
@Eternal422 I’m so jealous of your adventures, it all sounds amazing.

Have a grand day.
 
Morning all. 🙂 5.7 here.

Well, my lovely Monday evening class isn’t going to be cancelled because of low numbers. I like the students, but 3 hours on a Monday evening isn’t a good start to the week LOL. We’ve almost finished the book, so at least we can slow down a bit now and they can practise speaking Welsh more. Has Zoom got a virtual prod to keep them awake? It’s tough on all of us! 😛🙂
 
6.9 this morning. Been AWOL again. This time at our cottage in the Outer Hebrides. Went to escape the builders for a few days. Just me and the dogs. Managed to listen to loads of my audio book. It was a long way to go for 3 nights (should have been 4 but road closure on Skye on Thursday due to bad accident so we had an unexpected overnight stay in a hotel). 9 hours driving home yesterday (after catching a 7am ferry) because I kept getting tired and having to pull over. Good to be home and the sun is shining and tulips are out - SO amazing at this time of year the difference literally a few days makes in the garden (and the grass is growing and our robot mower is on strike and hubby away for 7 more weeks!). Have a great day everyone xxx

A 5.3 for me today. 🙂 Looks like we're back to the cold weather for a while.

5.7 for me on this bright, sunny but cold Berkshire morning. Wish that wind would die down, though it's not as bad as yesterday. Busy-ish day ahead with a trip to M&S in nearby Bracknell to return my wife's C&C order - it's not a good fit, one of the unfortunate problems with online shopping for clothes - and my regular Tuesday swim. Pool should be less busy and much quieter now the schools are back.

Saw some pictures of the damage caused by yesterday's gales so hope no one's had to clean up as a result.

Have a good day, weather permitting.

Morning all 4.7 for me this morning. Not had a good nights sleep due to low alarm going off every hour . Put a new sensor on yesterday so I don't know if that was the problem or lying on that arm . Then to cap it all went down with a bad case of cramp Must drink more water on a night . Hope everyone is doing well and have a good day folks
 
3.7 this morning after 3 low alarms orange juice and separate JBs on the two other occasions i am so tired and my heads banging feel like ive been on a roller coaster just couldn't get my BS up its 6.4 now going to have a ham and tomato and a small bread roll.
 
Morning all - it could be worse. There's some blue sky and it's not raining. Yesterday was actually quite nice, but despite the sun blooming cold wind.

7.2 this morning with a flat line. I spent the afternoon yesterday at the TIA clinic where I was called after the Friday shenanagins with the possible loss of speech. I'm reassured that the consultant thinks I'm suffering migraines and not TIAs and as either a result of the BP pills or just possibly but unlikely the chiropractor's ministrations on my stiff neck. It's been a worrying time.

Hope everyone is OK today. Haven't got a lot on today but must do a grocery shop this afternoon.
 
Hi everyone. 5'2 this morning, woohoo!

Sunny but windy this morning, looks like I'm not the only one with this situation. I changed my winter coat for a lighter one for a couple days, but I'm back to the winter coat. The sun will not fool me again today lol. I am attempting a long walk, if the wind doesn't get too unpleasant.

Yesterday I made some egg muffins and a cottage pie, I did not bake it because it got quite late and wasn't having it for dinner. It's ready to just put in the oven tonight.
 
And it was a 5.9 for me much earlier this morning.
.
 
7.8 for me. The postprandial only spiked at 12.5 this morning.
 
Good morning - 6.1

Have a great day everyone.
 
Good morning
6.2

20,347 steps yesterday. Did a walking tour of the Jewish ghetto in the morning. It was freezing cold and the guide tried his best to rein in some inappropriately behaving guests but it clearly threw him off his game and the tour suffered a bit.
Breakfasted beforehand as, well it was breakfast time…IMG_1083.jpeg

I strolled solo around the old town in the afternoon. Popped into a few churches, saw some sculptures with odd facial expressions and marvelled at how meticulous the rebuilding of Warsaw had been. It’s beautiful but it does feel a little Disneyfied right in the middle of the castle district I find.

She seems shocked that she’s holding a ball!

Today, Warsaw Rising museum, lunch, Old Town tour plus meandering.
 
Morning all. 6.2 on this chilly morn. 2c and frosty roofs! Brrr!

Yesterday was a lovely day, albeit a chilly wind, got the bedding washed and dried and ironing done. We now have water in the greenhouse, irrigation system didn’t arrive but we’ve had an email from Evri that they have it. Our Evri delivery man is always here between 8.30 and 9.30 so fingers crossed it’s here this morning. Otherwise a nice quiet day.

Have a wonderful Wednesday.
