Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 5.6 here.
I knew it! After months of complaining about the wet, I’m about to complain that it’s too dry! Didn’t water the pots and seedlings last night as we were forecast overnight rain…we’ve had about a teaspoonful.
 
GoodMorning 6.7 today

Good news is GP phoned me yesterday morning
having finally received and reviewed letter he was waiting for (from Eye department)
following our conversation, he prescribed Mounjaro, although my usual pharmacy didn’t have it
the second pharmacy I went to had it 🙂

I’ve chipped a filling on a front tooth, so will attempt to see a emergency dentist
but suspect I will end up seeing my usual dentist in about 6 months🙄glad I didn’t swallow the bit that chipped off, If I recall correctly it’s been there about 5 years, and started off with a crack

Tomorrow I have my appointment at audiologist
have a Super Saturday
 
Good morning but almost moaning! BG 9.7 after a night skimming the teens.I had a Phantom Itch start late afternoon which became Phantom Pain- it felt like a bunsen atop the foot. It did not settle till after 01:00 but the adrenaline pushed my BG despite insulin and zero food!

Got a rubbish supermarket delivery later. I needed to edit it it yesterday evening but just forgot. It autofills your initial order and there doesn't seem a way of preventing this. Quite annoying as I do not need a big box if JBs every week, the salt was for when I was bathing my foot so I do not need any, etc. Sadly I will probably recycle about £20 worth!

Sky as grey as I feel!
 
Today's reading was a 6.2. 🙂
Have a good day everyone.

Morning all. Another 6.6 and another lovely morning.

It’s Mr Eggy’s birthday, he’s caught up with me, nine weeks and one day! He’s my toy boy! The hordes arrived yesterday after school/ nursery/ work and we decamped to the garden, less mess, I made a very boring Victoria sponge but that was his choice. We sang Happy Birthday and ate cake ( although Zara couldn’t wait until everyone arrived) and drank wine/ gin/ pop and they’d all gone by 6pm! Result! Quiet day just the two of us today. Perfect.

Have a lovely day, I’m making the birthday boy a sausage butty for his breakfast, I hope he’s not expecting me to take it up to him! No crumbs allowed in my bed! 😉

Happy birthday to Bri/Mr Eggy!

And Zara is the official pre birthday birthday cake quality assessor so she has every right to eat a slice or two before everyone else gets a chance!
 
Morning all. 3.3. Ooops! The alarm went off earlier, JBs were consumed but the graph shows it didn't go back up enough to trigger the alarm again and i didn't wake up. The plan today is get the jobs done this morning then relax with my book in the garden this afternoon. Though looking out the window, its full cloud and quite breezy. Hopefully the sun will appear.

@eggyg Happy Birthday to Mr Eggy

She’d just come from nursery and said her lunch was “yak” so was starving! It must have passed quality control ‘cos she scoffed the lot!

She had yak? That’s more exotic than we ever had in a school lunch!
 
Good morning - 5.0

Have a great day everyone.
 
5.5 on a rather grey and overcast Berkshire morning. Clearly rained during the night, as forecast, as the covers on the garden furniture are soaking wet. Looks like another decent day in store though, with the sun due to put in an appearance around midday.

Wife's off to Bedford shortly for lunch with a couple of cousins, staying overnight at her sister's. Our youngest does 2-10 at Sainsbury's Saturdays. Not sure what our eldest is doing as he's not up yet, but I could have most of the day to myself.

Hope everyone has a good start to the weekend.
 
7.1 today, still higher than I wanted, but c’est la vie.

Got a day without anything planned, hoping to have some chill time and maybe a potter around the garden if weather permits. I know everyone told us that when you retire you are busier than at work, but it is actually true! Next week we have stuff planned for every day. But at least it’s all nice things, spending time with family and friends plus another day volunteering at Hatton Locks.

Take care everyone and have a good Saturday!
 
The libre was showing 5.3 when I got up, but a few minutes before that it was 5.2.

Yesterday finally had the first eye test for 6 years and the first since diagnosis of the Big D in 2021. Eyesight has changed ever so slightly for distance, and the optician explained how the high blood sugar that caused by blurred eyesight was due to the lens swelling. (Which I already knew.) Varifocals now (In 2018 they were surprised I didn't need them already, but this time it's a definite.)
