Group 7-day waking average?

Congrats on the HS @MeeTooTeeTwo

Hope you feel better soon @freesia

A 5.7 for me at 06:59 this morning. Rather a non-descript morning in West Berks today. Warm(ish), dull but dry. It is blowing a bit and the ground is very soggy.

Have a great day everyone
 
At long last I’m feeling a touch better this morning, woohoo 🙂. A 6.7 for me today. Need shopping but don’t think it would be a good idea to go to a supermarket yet.
@freesia what a worry, I hope you only have a mild dose, stay well and warm x
@KARNAK very pleased to hear you are home, behave yourself and stay out of trouble, I know it’s a lot to ask but do your best 😉 x
@Gruers hooe you are feeling a bit better today x
@Kaylz did you get your Morrison’s delivery? Glad your bg’s have come down x
@MeeTooTeeTwo well done on your HS x
Quite close here this morning, so much so, I took my temperature to check!! Have a good day everyone xx
 
5.9 today for me.
And just did a lovely smiling meditation. Standard meditation on the breath but you smile on the out breath. Odd but rather nice.

Morning everyone. 3.4 from me this morning. Haven't posted for a few days as last Thursday got a call to isolate as i'd been in close contact with someone who tested positive. By Friday morning i'd worked myself up, tried to get a lateral flow test but couldn't because of contact so decided to get a prooer test. It came back positive!!! I've been in shock as i've done everything we are told to do and, touch wood, i've had no symptoms so far but my mental health has been not great at all. Have had a few other pressures as well so all in all felt very down.
My blood levels have been shooting high and staying there for hours then dropping through lack of exercise so thats made me feel rubbish as well. Then, shock, woke to a hypo this morning.
I hope everyone stays safe and well. Have a good day whatever you plan to do. X

8 for me today.
Just been for a very lovely walk today.
Completely baffled by water in a field at the apex of a hill. I presume there must be a spring under ground and that the water levels have risen so high in the rain last night that the water is just emerging and flowing down the slight incline in the tractor ruts.
Saw the yellow hammers again, they did their dance along the hedgerow to stay in front of us. And we saw something yellow and large in the sky!
Have a good day all x
 
12:04 BS 8.5 Still a bit sore & tender. Upped midnight LR a bit, +4, & think I’ll up midday +4 now too after posting! 🙄

Have to go Australian & wish you all a G’day Mates! 😉

No hanging about now that I’ve decided about LR, it’s meds & insulin time, clenil & then, breakfast/lunch!

Oh yes! The snow finally all melted yesterday & it’s not SO cold now! 🙂
 
Afternoon all. 7.3 @ 11.28am.

A not so bad 7.2 this morning and a get out of jail covid test done this morning, that's three in a week but now I'm free to go to the supermarket lol, everything else is closed here.
the hair is starting to get out of hand and I cant even bribe someone to cut it, its looking like the clipper is going to come out and a slick no5 trim getting done, just have to convince her indoors to let me do it.
Have a great day everyone and stay out of trouble!!

LOL yes @Iwillgetthere
On my walks yesterday and today, I too have been puzzling over a few gravity defying pools of water.
It reminded me of some of MC Escher's wonderful prints.

If you love Escher you’ll love the British made Monument Valley series of games (the original one, Forgotten Shores, Ida’s Dream & Monument Valley 2)! 😛😎 A puzzle game where you need to work out how to move, spin various pieces of architecture to enable the silent Princess Ida through the levels to return the missing altar pieces, in her hat, at the top, the bottom in some levels, of the monument’s! It’s visually, & audibly, stunning & it’s based on optical illusions that give line of sight connections that enable Princess Ida to move across gaps: the challenge is to spot those alignments & move the architecture back & forth to get Ida to the end of each level!🙄😛😎🙂

There’s one very famous optical illusion called The Penrose Triangle that was featured in level 4 of the original game, Monument Valley, here it is snapped from the game itself: 1st. picture is when I’ve moved the pieces into alignment so, Ida can move across the gap & the 2nd is out of alignment & Ida won’t be able to move across!:-
