Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 10.1 and has been hovering around that for about 4 hours, now dropping though. We had a bit of a stressful afternoon and evening yesterday which resulted in a glass of wine and M&S custard choux buns. Today, i'm meeting a friend for coffee, thats it. Have a good Friday everyone.
 
Morning all, 5.8 here.
Yesterday I got a letter saying my driving licence would be renewed, and I could expect it within the next few days. It had actually already arrived. DVLA a**e about face as usual!
 
Good morning all a great sunny start to the day
Bg 5.0 excellent result spot on, its going to be a good day i can feel it.
Feeling good today, had 5 hours sleep that's very good for me. Looking forward to going out on Indie today . Just going to lidls for some salads and a cheeky bar of chocolate may slip. Into my basket~. Mr tescos coming tonight at 8pm ish, along with my popcorn for my movie night. Will let you know results of bg after that.
Love to you all and extra special thoughs to those on their own and/or struggling

EDIT wanted to add more
Time 935am Nurse has just been to do my insulin and my bg was 5.5 that's 2 hours after my normal breakfast of marmite, butter on 2 wholemeal toast and a mug of coffee. Normally that spikes me by 2-3 points. I guess the diabetic fairy likes me today

GM,

4.7 for me.

Interestingly as the weather has become cooler my BG has returned to usual lower numbers. No end to learning.

Wishing you all a great Friday ❤
 
A 5.3 for me today. 🙂

9.7 dropping to 9.3 before brekkas. Had no end of trouble rising earlier - couldn't keep my eyes open for longer than seconds!

The builder was a little late starting but is now hammering the wall by the bathroom. I think it's a rebuild.

Well, it's overcast here with more clouds than you could throw a stick at, the breeze has picked up too. It turned out really nice yesterday despite the morning rain. I played pool with K and R in the Pier public house. They had been having problems with the interweb that we had on the previous day (Wednesday), so we couldn't pay via card. Prefer ca$h anyways.

Been playing/practicing guitar quite a bit of late, particularly as we've been without the web (made practicing songs a bit more perilous), it turned out to be a couple of hours!

Enjoy your day and stay safe folks
 
Good morning folks. It's a beautiful sunny day with a high of 23 deg C forecast. 11.2 this morning 😱
I suspect it's because we went out for a pub meal last night and didn't eat till about 8.30pm. I did have a couple of ryvitas with cream cheese at 4pm to keep me going and took my tablets then. Meal was lovely. I had salmon with hollandaise sauce, 2 new potatoes and mixed seasonal veg. It's all freshly prepared and cooked. My downfall was the raspberry and while chocolate cheesecake. The pub is about 5 miles away but it's one of our favourites. Also dog friendly in the bar area so the labradors joined us. They were very good and laid down under the table.
BiL has taken them for a walk this morning. We will have a brunch in a little while when SiL arrives. Then a session making perry from our pears plus a few windfall apples to increase the acidity.

Hope you all have a relaxing Friday whatever the weather. Sending hugs to anyone not feeling so good.
Take care xx
 
Morning everyone. A nice sunny morning here and a happy 5.0 to start the day.

Have a great day folks and stay well.

Good morning all. 6.7.

Chaotic afternoon yesterday, so what's fresh? It always is when any of the hordes are here. Beige buffet went down well, a few leftovers for today's lunch if we can face them! Last night we had a cheeky curry at our local Indian restaurant. Couldn't face cooking so wandered the 100 meters down the road, it was packed! They couldn't accommodate us straightaway so had a drink and waited. They had a special offer on for the school holidays, of course we didn't want was on offer, king prawns weren't included, Mr Eggy's favourite starter, or lamb tikka my main course choice. Typical! I didn't have a starter and we shared the Naga lamb tikka, veg rice, garlic and coriander naan and a Bombay aloo, as we always do. It was still too much and we left rice, Bombay aloo and about a third of the naan. I was absolutely stuffed and very uncomfortable, and that's why I don't eat out very much, my system can't cope with a lot of food. It was lovely but not worth the discomfort for me I'm afraid. Luckily, we were home in two minutes and I could lie down! Something light tonight me thinks.

Quiet day today, I want to sort out my baking cupboard, it's full with all my flours, sugars, dried fruit etc, I've got a plan for it.

Have a fab-u-lous Friday everyone. The sun is shining up here but it's a fresh 12 degrees, quite autumnal, which I like.

My son in law is dreadful if we go out for an Indian meal as he just orders loads of extra stuff which is always too much, last time we brought the excess home in takeaway boxes and there was enough for 2 meals for the 2 of us. He always thinks the kids eat more than they actually do.

It’s easy done, I particularly like the sides, I love tarka dahl and if there’s a few of us I would order it, as well as a Bombay or saag aloo, to share but glad I didn’t have it last night. I don’t even have a starter anymore as they fill me up too much.
