Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 5.1 here. Put basal up to winter level again, having put it up a couple of weeks ago, then lowered it again for the summer weather we’ve been having.
Doing my normal weekly shop in a mo, and I need looroll this week, hope I haven’t left it too late! Surely people haven’t got through all the stuff they panic-bought in March yet.
 
Morning. A very nice round 6. I’m up four hours later than I was yesterday, must have needed it. Nice day again but it’s going to change this week. Mr Eggy has nearly finished painting the back of the house, should be done today. No plans for me, a walk probably but nothing more exciting than that.
@Robin I too need loo rolls! @SueEK glad your grandson is home and well. They’re a worry. Have a good day all. 🙂
 
Oops! Didn’t realise my iPad’s battery was so low that it switched off, plug it to charge &wait for it to switch back on, password & restart palaver! 🙄 This time the ghosting greyed out effect was useful in that I didn’t have to retype everything!🙂😎 & TBH HAVE to add a Blushing emoji! too!:D

08:36 BS 6.0🙂 Quite pleased with that & a bit relieved! Phew! Yesterday I was a bit high all day because of the knock-on effect of slept through midnight Levemir: 12’s after eating & down to 10’s before the next meal; midnight was still 10.0 so, stuck in 10 units of Novorapid too!🙄

Now it seems LR doses have eventually righted the ship & I wake in range, the rest of the day will be as well?🙄

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

PS:- Watch out @SueEK , I think I’ve got the suduko bug now & 10 puzzles yesterday after downloading an app on my iPad. I don’t like being timed though, extra pressure, & just snap pictures to add to notes & add in the numbers the same way as the day before; even did one very quickly after midnight LR in bed before dropping off again!:D I just needed to get the hang of it & away I went: got faster & now down to about 20 minutes!o_O:D A jigsaw sudoku sounds interesting & maybe I can work myself up to doing one some day?🙄o_O😉
 
This is what I got him, not much but cash is short, also got him a box of Milk Tray xx

Good morning folks watch out Teds about a low 3.6 on a warm sunny day,
26.C at the moment don`t want to drop my Basal as the temperature is due to drop.🙂

Been AWOL for a few weeks but have been following the forum.

Congratulations @eggyg & Mr @eggyg on your new arrival.🙂

Happy anniversary Kaylz and Bruce nice prezzie @Kaylz.🙂

Take care folks nice to be back onboard, stay safe.🙂
 
5.5 this morning, and flat line again.

However yesterday the levels were bonkers during the day.
Should have read @Robin’s post earlier and I may have remembered to switch to winter ratios.
But then the sun is out again today. Just more practice at juggling.

We too did a quick stock check of loo rolls, yeast and flour @eggyg and @Robin
But will it be the same things this time?

Cormoran Strike is excellent on TV @mikeyB with excellent casting.
I had not thought about getting the books. Good plan

Off on a tree hunt today. A multi stemmed birch to replace a pittosporum that had gone on strike for the last two years. Also after a few replacement pots.

Have a good day all.

Glad to see you back. I’m in North Devon next month and I’m bringing the big roll of cotton wool incase I need to drive down to Torbay at short notice! 😉

I need to go to Specsavers! I first read that you were practicing JOGGING! 😱
I hope the panic buying isn’t the same as last time. Let’s see what Professor Whitty has to say at 11am before I pop to Tesco!

How about for a bit of fun if people who test in the mornings post their waking levels? I think it would be interesting to see what the average works out at after a week 🙂

I'll start with mine - I was 6.0 when I woke up this morning 🙂

(please don't let me be the only person to enter one! 😉)

Sounds like you are making good progress 🙂 Don't be concerned if you get the occasional rise, all those figures are very good at this stage, and we all get blips from time to time 🙂 As your experience builds you should be able to achieve consistently good numbers, so keep up the good work! 🙂

Thanks!
 
6.8 is a popular number this morning but I am in good company with @Bexlee and @Kaylz.... Happy Anniversary to you and Bruce.
@KARNAK Great to see you back Ted. We have been worried! Make the most of soaking up those rays of sun today.
@SueEK So pleased that grandson is back home and no problems showed up on brain scan.... was going to day brain scan was clear.... but hopefully not! Fingers crossed heart scan shows nothing untoward as well.
@adrian1der That is a really promising sequence of numbers. Well done!
