Group 7-day waking average?

A 4.8 for me this morning. 🙂
It was my turn yesterday to make an inventory of the herbs and spices and order any new ones. My policy is that if it's less than 2 years out of date it's OK. But what I can't understand is why do some manufacturers print "use by dates" on the bottom of glass containers. It's nigh impossible to decipher what's on there. Any hints or tips on how to make it easier to read.

Morning all, 5.6 here, but needed a couple of jelly babies at 4am, went through the house like a dose of salts yesterday, hoovering and dusting, before we put the tree and cards up, daughter brings her cat with her when she stays over at Christmas, and it’s so embarrassing when cat emerges from a dark corner covered in cobwebs. Off to a buffet tonight, the riding school staff/livery owners annual do, plenty of opportunity for carb guesswork!
 
Morning all. Didn’t look at numbers when I got up to the baby at 6.45. Changed her nappy handed her over to her big cousin and did my insulin. Checked BGs 5.2! 😉

I’m running on fumes, neither of us got much sleep with coughing toddlers and babies. I was on high alert and just couldn’t nod off. It’s ok we’re getting rid errr I mean the little angels’ parents are arriving at 3pm. Party went well, lots of food, Pass the Parcel and Musical Statues. PJs on, cup of cocoa and they all were in bed between 7-9pm. We followed at 9.30!
Full English just finished. Ruined these kids!

Have a great day, whatever the day brings.

A 6.4 for me this morning

Hope the buffet goes well @Robin

Pretty much my food nemesis! I can never get the guesses right however ‘over’ I try to estimate.

Had visions of a Halloween themed puddy tat making a special Christmas visit all decked out in cobwebs!
 
Morning all. 6.9 and a unicorn day yesterday. I'm off to get the veg, milk and cream in a few mins then home to put feet up, read or whatever.

Congrats on the HS @eggyg.

Have a good day folks.
 
5.3 today for me.

Off to a family Christmas dinner today where I’ll try my best at playing “Guess the Carbs”!

Congratulations @eggyg on your HS!

Have a good day everyone!
 
5.7 for me
Morning all
didt get up till 930am needed the sleep

Good morning 7.1 today

Nothing to exciting planned today, clearing up at home is badly needed & maybe relax watching some movies,
plus some admin will need to be done regarding a few things for my work.

strangely some of the vision over the last few days seems to be slightly clearer in my right eye (or maybe I’m just getting used to it) anyway I have to drop into the hospital for optical biometry measurement as part of my pre-op tomorrow so will mention it to them,
looking forward to having normal vision hopefully a few weeks after my forthcoming surgery on 30th

Congrats on the HS @eggyg

have a superb Sunday everyone 😎
 
Morning everyone. The sun is shining again this morning and I’m back in the 4’s with a 4.9 today.

Have a good day folks and stay safe.
 
Congratulations on the HS @eggyg

5.3 for me today.
It's the last day of my Annual Leave today. Mr B is at work until 3 and then is going to get eldest from his uni digs (he stayed late to be Santa at a charity event his drama club were hosting) and that'll be my family back together for Christmas. I can't wait!

Happy Sunday!
 
Congratulations on the HS @eggyg

6.8 this a.m. The xmas meal yesterday went well. I had the fish/prawns to start as a main, closely followed by a small xmas pudding with custard - just the way I like it. The effect on my BG was notable but dropped to normal a few hours later.

The tree is going to be dressed today as I am uniformed by Mrs.SS.

Have a good eve of Christmas eve whatever you're all doing everyone!
 
A lazy morning for me. 6.7

Hope everyone’s holiday preparations and family catch ups / plans are going well.

Have a good rest of the day
