Group 7-day waking average?

@eggyg its a winter wonderland. And what a lovely sized garden you have. We only have a little snow here but it does look icy out there
 
@Kaylz wish I could offer advice that would really help but I’m stumped. Do you have brothers or sisters that you could speak to that could then have a word with your mum about it as she doesn’t appear to be listening to you, such a difficult situation. Are you able to speak to your GP about them sending a letter to the council about getting you and Bruce other accommodation as a priority, we do them a lot at work, this could be based on your medical and mental health, might be worth a try.
No I'm an only child, as I've just told freesia and told Mike last night I never get a chance to make/take phone calls throughout the day due to the constant threat of my grandad appearing at anytime and me having to go and intervene and then clean whatever he has been near, I feel like I'm going to end up in an early grave :( xx
 
Congrats @HenryBennett and @MeeTooTeeTwo on the HSs.

5.6 for me at 7:52. I thought the grass was white with frost but on venturing out to do the chickens I realised it was a very light dusting of snow. It's also misty in West Berks.
 
Another 5.1 this morning, but after a big hypos o again last night. This temp change is mucking things up a bit, as well as longer walks during the day, so things topping up over night.
Bring in the sensors and pump sorting this out for me and leaving me to sleep.

Very cold and frosty (but probably seems like summer down here compared to what you have @Kaylz). I know I said I would walk every day but .... I will get out but it might be a shorter walk. I found a free app for the iPhone which will tell me how far I have walked from the start of a walk. ( It already does steps and distance throughout the day in the Health app that came with the phone, and I could just do subtractions!)

Otherwise some preparations to do for a weaving course the weekend after this one coming. Also a Zoom walk with a friend who has lost confidence and does not want to go out at all. We will walk and talk.

Sorry to hear this sending you a cyber hug.
 
@kaylz The skin on my knuckles used to split. Evntually I was given Diprobase Eczema Cream by my doctor and it works for me. I also use Snowfire just below nail-beds to try and avoid chilblains. There are several Diprobase products, the eczema is the beige one. It is also available in the skin care section of pharmacies (50g tube convenient or 500g tubs much cheaper) so I just buy it as needed. Tub lasts me over 2 years, applied three times a day.
 
A nice 6.6 this morning, we adopted a new puppy yesterday and our dog is quite jealous and keep growling at her in the house but when we’re out for walks they’re fine. My wife is sleeping with her in the living room and I’m in the bedroom with him, I hope they get on better today. Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Have a great day all!!
Get rid of the wife.😳 :D
 
4.3 and slept in, I blame the cat's as they were snuggled upto me so didn't want to wake them.
 
Good morning 3.7 on a shouldn`t have went out day but Doc was calling, had full bloods taken
and an ECG, back on Monday for results.

Icy under foot was nearly under bum couldn`t even see it, is that what they call blind ice?

Congratulations on HS @HenryBennett & @MeeTooTeeTwo.🙂

Happy birthday @Sally W 1610106817967.pngstay safe.

Yes I've had Diprobase prescribed in my teenage years, my problem is my hands are only out of water long enough for cream to do any good when I'm in my bed so the only time I can apply it is when I go to bed otherwise it's a waste of money which I don't have a lot of lol xx

Thanks Ted! Best of luck with results Monday !
 
<whisper> Don’t tell anyone else, but centaurs are mythical
:D I bet I made you think about it though. Next you'll be telling me there's no Easter Bunny!
 
@Paulbreen fair play to you both. Its good that he's not bothered by her on walks so hopefully wont take too long at all for them to get used to each other.
@Bloden I agree pics would be great 😛

I have a dogue de bordeaux unfortunately she was never socialised so I am unable to introduce another dog to the fold.
A Dogue de Bordeaux, wow! Pics of your pooch too, plz. :D

Maybe you could write them a letter explaining your situation and get Bruce to post it for you x
 
Dogs very nice but you have a look at my cockerels, this is the boss.
