Group 7-day waking average?

A 4.7 for me today. 🙂 Still no snow - only drizzle.

Morning all. 5.6 for me, after a flat day yesterday and overnight. Cold here but no snow - a little yesterday but not enough to stay for any length of time. Fine with me, though, as it makes it difficult to get around, for all that it is pretty to look at.

7.4 this morning. Very happy as it was 14 for my pre-bed reading so 3U of NR and then 12 of Levemir and it's got me back in the zone. Happy because it shows I'm really getting to grips with correction doses etc.

Not sure on the plans for today. Roads are terrible round here so the boy's school is shut but I do need to try and get to the office for an important meeting.

Might shave my head, have a bath, a proper shave with a straight razor and take the day from there...
 
4.2 today.

Friday’s visit to Barry and then Cardiff Bay for something to eat before heading off home was great. Lovely sunny day and not as cold as you would have expected. Got a few nice pictures on the phone :

Yesterday was an unplanned visit to my parents to attempt fixing their lounge curtains that had come away from their brackets. Unfortunately the brackets were broken and the local Dunelm didn’t have any the same. Found some on Amazon but they won’t arrive until Monday so have had to just make it all safe for them and will have to go back next week once we get the brackets.

Very little snow here, just looks cold and damp outside with the odd patch of snow.

Congratulations to @Grannylorraine @goodybags and @gail2 on your HSs yesterday!

Stay warm everyone!
Truth be told, I'm not going to lie - I'm envious of you I am, living near Barry. Just finished binge watching (re-watching) the whole of Gavin & Stacey 3 series and 3 Christmas Specials and then the Fond Farewell documentary - I was in floods by the end!
 
Morning All - an embarrassing, tiffin induced, 12 this morning 😱 Over Christmas I'd hidden a Tupperware box with pieces of tiffin and rice-crispier cake because my daughter's boyfriend kept scoffing it. Well I found it late last night. I did bolus for it but clearly nowhere near enough. I might chuck out the rest of the M&S truffles today that my brother left as I had 4 of those too. So this week will be spent trying to get my time in range back into a good position and getting my bars all green on my average glucose charts which I love but at the moment there's a pesky yellow bar in the evenings. Snow wise - we've had LOADS. Hubby even went skiing from the house yesterday. It's dropped a lot more overnight but I think it might be a bit sweaty now. I'm even attempting to venture down the hill to Penrith which is a shame as it's our first Walking Netball session back after Christmas today and being one of the coaches I'm needed, but I'm sure they'll manage without me as one other host can be there as she lives in the middle of Penrith. Christmas decs coming down today as last night was Twelfth Night and the wise men made it to the crib. Have a good day everyone xxx

Morning and a 7.1 for me after a 3u correction after the last Party of the festive season at the Farm.I say Party but it was more a family sit down natter and binge on a lovely buffet.We all slept pretty well afterwards as we were so tired and my daughter usually comes up with a new cooking twist this time it was Ham cooked with Dandelion and Burdock and it always seems to work as well as the usual favourites like Sticky sausages etc.
There is always loads left over even though we ate our fair share but I went up twice for the savoury and just skipped the choice of puddings.
Anyway nice to get back to a routine so 2 hour on line back to work meeting and then chiropractor appointment this afternoon.
We have snow but only a light covering but enough to send our dogs into orbit with excitement which is a nice start to the day.
Have a good week whether fully back to work or whatever.

Cracking’! I too was in bits, I was shouting at the telly telling Dave Coaches to hurry up! And as for the Fond Farewell, I was watching it whilst ironing, I didn’t need the spray function. 😛
 
Morning all. 7.4 here.

Back at the coal-face this morning! My first class has been re-designated “English: various levels” which means “no-one will be happy” LOL. I hope I’ve managed to come up with something that suits the pre-intermediates AND the beginners...we’ll see. Then Welsh this evening - if fewer than 6 turn up, the class is for the chop! Should be an interesting day.
 
Morning all. 6.4 after a lie in, sort of. Mr Eggy and grandson were up at 5am, they left 5.25 to drive the nine miles to grandson’s work place. Of course I couldn’t drift off as I was worried about the roads being icy. They weren’t. When Mr E arrived home I relaxed, until he got back into bed, he was like a block of ice! I eventually drifted off and woke up sweating as he was still snuggled into me, it was a shame to wake him but I needed the loo and I was hungry. I’ve left Sleeping Beauty in bed, he doesn’t do early mornings and definitely didn’t know there are two 5 o’clocks in the day!

Still got snow lying around in the garden but no more expected, it’s positively mild at just over 1 degree. No plans today, posterior feeling almost normal, I managed to wash my left foot in the shower yesterday, and get my socks on myself so all is well with the world. 😉

Have a Happy Monday, TODAY really is back to normal.

Lots of birds in the garden yesterday scratching about for food. I took these photos of the beautiful goldfinches, also I forgot to mention I have a bird cam now, Christmas present, a lot of the photos are blurry but here’s a couple from yesterday. They make me laugh.

Motning all. A horrible, horrible high again for me, all night, i didn't hear the alarm. The new sensor said it was 16.8 and been up to 28, finger prick says 14. I've had a 5u correction and no breakfast. Very fed up now.

I'm off to see mum in a bit as she finally came home yesterday then supposed to meet a friend for a coffee this afternoon. The weather looks horrible though, bits of snow and ice around, floods, windy and very grey.
 
Morning

5.3 today, plans are taking down the inside Christmas decs, outside ones are all turned off, hubby will take them down when weather improves as very wet and windy here. Other than that will do some crotchet as I have yet another project todo as 6 year old granddaughter demanded I make her a kitten on Christmas Eve and when I saw her in New Years Day her first words were, where’s my kitten, she wasn’t impressed that I hadn’t even got the wool, so I now have the wool so I better get started on it.

@freesia - sorry to hear you are struggling with high numbers,
 
3.7 for me after a slightly miscalculated correction at 5.41am. A JB and FOTF soon fixed that.

Still plenty of snow here but damp and soggy rather than crisp and sparkly.

Well not really, we are 2 hours away, it close enough for an easy day trip!
 
Oops, 3.2 this morning and quite a bit of the night in the red. Must have overdone the bedtime correction I took.

Got a dentist appointment this afternoon to look at a broken tooth:(. Luckily no pain, it’s a molar with a large filling and the inside edge has come away. Not confident the dentist will be able to repair it and I don’t think there’s enough tooth remaining for a crown, but we’ll see later on today.

Before that we’re going over to my parents to fix the curtain track brackets which were delivered yesterday. There’s lots of flooding here on local roads, so hopefully we’ll be ok.

@freesia - sorry to hear you are struggling with high BGs, hopefully things will settle down soon for you.

Take care everyone!
