Group 7-day waking average?

I rang about my flu jab yesterday. I was told they were doing over 65s first and i would have to wait.
 
4.8 for me this morning. 🙂

Stay safe and well.

Hi Freesia, this may be because they use a different jab for the older ones than the youngsters,so they group the age groups together. I saw on our site that under 65s were not possible yet.
 
5.3 this morning. So close today!

A normal day today. Pilates, coffee a bit of gardening before the weather turns and then weaving.

Have a good day all.

08:20 BS 5.3 🙂 I know it’s a good figure BUT, just a point lower?🙄 Would be joining @Kaylz & @Hazel on HS this morning but, left out in the cold! Boo hoo!😉:D

Woke up in a jolt & a rather hurried, panicked, fumbling getting dressed rush to thefront door because I slept past 06:00, first thing I did was look at my watch, I thought I heard my doorbell ring while still asleep! I’m expecting a rather important, to me parcel, from the online Apple Store, don’t live anywhere near one & the online store is my only option, & their VERY helpful text last night said it’s being delivered today from 06:04 to 10:04!🙄 It’s taken me until now to get my heart rate down to post after my mad dash! AND it wasn’t a delivery: it was a 2nd text saying exactly the same message that it’s coming today; why send a 2nd one?o_O

It’s yet another iPhone/iPad 2 metre cable to slot into the plug for charging: don’t know what it is but, each one only lasts about 2 years; it’s not cheap either at £29 each & this is the 3rd one I’ve needed since August 2015!😱 The 1 metre cables that come in the box with the iPad & iPhone just isn’t long enough to reach me from the floor, where the power wall outlet, & the height of my bed so, only use those for when I need to connect to transfer things to/from my MacBook!🙄 & Frustrated emoji!

It was a very cold dash too & a certain two parts of my body are still a bit tender from the cold chafing, the ladies will know to which parts I refer!😱 I’m warming up slowly back in bed with no electric heater, central heating not on yet, as I can’t hear the doorbell over the sound of the fan heater! 🙄o_O

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

PS:- Apparently shiveringly isn’t a word as I had to fight autocorrect a few times as it kept changing it to shimmeringly!:D But, sometimes a word should be a proper word as it just fits the bill!o_O:D You know what I mean, right?😉
 
A 4.8 🙂 but Water down to a dribble but kettle is full :D
 
Good morning 4.5 on a very overcast day 23.C at the moment, spent a few hours tanning yesterday.🙂
Lidl shopping today still quite a few grockles about so need to tread carefully.🙄

Thanks everyone for welcoming me back much appreciated.🙂😎

Congratulations on your HS @Kaylz & @Hazel.🙂

@eggyg can you bring some bubble wrap too.:D

@Lanny most men know what you mean also.😱😳:D

Take care folks great to be back onboard take care stay safe.🙂

Morning everyone. A 5.1 for me this morning. Its supposed to be a lovely day today and i'll be spending it indoors with 5-7yr olds.
@Kaylz, its good your pharmacy are doing that, it will make it easier for you. Hope you and Bruce had a nice anniversary.
@SueEK, i don't know where you live but if its near me i would be offering to come and help. I used to do office work but stopped when i had my children. There are times lately that i have considered going back to it, am absolutely shattered at work atm.
Have a good day all.

Morning all. 🙂 5.7 here.

@SueEK you’re their most valuable asset - I just hope they wake up to the fact soon!

I had a look on my surgery’s website yesterday for info about this year’s flu jab. Apparently, they’re doing a mass flu jabathon in October at the local community centre, 9am to 4pm, first come first served. Considering that most of the local population is retired / ancient, I’m not sure it’s such a good idea! It’ll be rammed.:D😱

Off to (outdoor) knitting today - first time since March. Really looking fwd to seeing ev1.🙂

Thanks Bloden, a number of the doctors have come in to see me to see if they can do things themselves which is nice but most of them can’t even spell all the diseases, conditions, drugs etc etc that they dictate about haha. They are appreciative but doesn’t solve the problem lol x

@SueEK , i've just re read my post. Please don't think i mean your job is easier than mine!! I just meant i think i need a change and some days its hard being jolly and upbeat all of the time. Anyway, i hope you have a good day.

It is good if we each find the job that suits us.
When I speak to primary teachers I am always in awe. I could never have done their job.
I was fine when they get to 11.
When I was chair of the PPG I was also so aware of the importance of all the staff that support the GPS, and also of the abuse that they often receive from patients when feel the Practice doesn’t do what they expect. Many forget that their own health is their own responsibility. The Practice can only help those that want to help themselves. I hope you had a better day today @SueEK

Last night's delicious strawberry and white chocolate muffin is having it's revenge.
Totally worth it.

If you smile whilst you eat those treats you use up more calories!! Not sure it has any impact on the carbs though.
