Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. :D 7.2 here. I blame my 2-hour o_O lie-in.

Got absolutely drenched yesterday - what a downpour! - so a great test to see if my efforts at waterproofing had worked. Jacket: yes! :DTrousers: no. 😳 It was a case of dry up top and well-and-truly soggy bottoms.

Enjoy the extra hour!
 
4.8 this morning. 🙂
I had only one clock to adjust this year (microwave which loses about 10 minutes a week). I thought I had 2 to do, but when I checked the central heating I found that I hadn't bothered to adjust it in the Spring.
This guy has more than 400 to do, but he does get paid to do it

Windsor Castle: Changing hundreds of royal clocks

When the clocks went back, the horological conservator at the royal castle changed 400 clocks by hand.

Snap @Northerner 7.1 for me as well. Back home today after a relaxing long weekend, I do love our van we are so lucky. Stopping off in Steyning on the way back to look at a pair of bedside cabinets for our bedroom, I hope they are as nice as they look on Marketplace. Have struggled to find something old but in good condition, fingers crossed. Knee not so bad last night, should be back to normal in a couple of days.
@Michael12421 another good result, well done.
@khskel have a great time. Are you just ‘jamming’ or actually recording - whichever have a great time.
PS was very naughty and a chocolate biscuit last night, who would have thought you could feel such a daredevil having one biscuit lol.
Enjoy your Sunday x

Actually recording 🙂
 
Morning all,
5.9 this morning, have a great day everyone!

Good morning all. 4.1 for me this morning. After a really good day in target yesterday and a wiggly but fairly level line overnight that pesky DF decided to take advantage of the extra hour of sleep and i dropped too low.
@Michael12421 , your levels seem to be getting better
@khskel , enjoy your recording time. What sort of music do you play?
@Lanny , i too enjoyed Strictly last night. There are some really good dancers this year. I liked Caroline she was really elegant, she's around the same age as me, but i'd never look like that!
Have a good day all, weather supposed to be better today.

Morning all, I did take advantage of the extra hour. 6.4. Just staring to brighten up after torrential rain earlier on. Got eldest granddaughter staying but she won’t surface until midday I wouldn’t have thought. Might try and persuade her to come out for a walk with us later. I’m not holding my breath!
I didn’t watch Strictly last night as we watched a DVD, The Green Mile, and it’s three hours long! One of my favourite books and films, I think it’s the best film adaptation of any book I’ve read. I still cried at the end even though I have seen it loads of times. Granddaughter enjoyed it too. Will catch up with Strictly later, so no spoilers please! Should we start a Strictly thread on Off the Subject? Have a great day. Good luck with the recording @khskel.

Its a great film and Tom Hanks is brilliant. Strictly thread a good idea
 
@eggyg @freesia totally agree, it’s a brilliant film, to me on a par with The Shawshank Redemption - understated brilliant acting.
Yup I’m up for the Strictly thread, never missed a single episode.

Great minds think alike
 
5.8. A Lazy day planned...book......newspaper and a delayed F1 race when hubby gets home.

Have a good day.
 
4.9 this morning for me.
Changed my decision on the evening Levemir dose and left it at 4 units as I was high at bedtime (10) with no sign of coming down and I hadn't had my evening walk up the hill to the horses. From my Libre graph I trundled along at 9-10 until about 3am and then a slow steady descent to that 4.9. Shifting horse manure this afternoon, so I will have to figure that physical exercise into my evening Levemir calculation tonight too.
Sun is shining here at the moment but cool wind.... definitely feels very autumnal but at least it isn't raining so I will take that!

This D certainly keeps our brains active. It is a beautiful day here with just intermittent showers. Hope you can dodge showers to get jobs done.

I am impressed by your willpower in sticking to one biscuit.
But it is great that feeling of such a small thing being a real treat.
 
The final hours of my current sensor which has read low throughout. At least it has been consistent.
4.1 this morning on sensor, but 5.1 on BG.

Up early (for us) to meet some friends for a glorious autumnal walk this morning. Just got back before heavens opened. This is definitely my favourite season and an excuse to light the fire this evening.
 
A 7.2 for me this morning after a very nice steak and too much wine with the wife last night
 
Well I got 2 deliveries of manure done this afternoon, the first with the Freelander and trailer to a guy in the next village and the second (10 barrow loads) to a couple in the village using my wheelbarrow as access is tight with car and trailer. On the return from 9th load I was feeling a bit wobbly and went to scan sensor only to be told that Glucose reading was not available as sensor was too cold!!! Admittedly I was wearing a T-shirt so it was exposed and the sun was going down but I was using my arms to load and barrow the manure. Seems like my sensor is a bit of a wuss. Put my fleece on and 10 mins later I got my reading (3.8) and had some jelly babies to bring me up. Anyone else had a sensor that couldn't cope with the cold. I know I have problems with my BG meter in winter and have to put it down my bra for a few minutes before I can test when I am working outdoors or at the stables but assumed the sensor being stuck to my arm would be warm enough.
