Group 7-day waking average?

'What has green pubic hair and an IQ of 180?' :D
Yes Alan that was that golden oldie joke I had in mind but could only remember the punchline. :D

Which now reminds me of this Tommy Cooper classic
Two cannibals are eating a clown, one says to the other........."does this taste funny to you?"

Morning all. Oh yes I’ve only got an elusive 5.2 after correcting an 18.2 from a wonky cannula last evening. The roller coaster continues its thrilling ride 😳

It’s a beautiful sunny morning for now, off to the local slightly bigger shop to buy stuff. I had a phone call for a new plaster cast on Monday at 9am I was so excited about it I forgot my only other diary entry for the year was a food delivery at Monday at 9am! Changed the food delivery but next date is the 22nd.

Have a good day out there and keep safe 🙂
Congratulations on the HS! 🙂

@KARNAK glad you’re feeling better Ted.
@Michael12421 very good news about Pablo and your dead battery!!
@Flower congrats on the HS
@Northerner - and the answer is??
6,5 for me after a lay in this morning. Very strange dreams last night, have been having a few of those lately for some reason. Yet again nothing planned for the weekend, where do you go, who do you see when we’re not allowed out. Our parks are too full for a walk and I’m bored of walking the roads. Oh well.
Have a good day x
 
Nope no explanation for the tinnitus. Had it since I was about 15 years old, getting progressively more intrusive. I guess that I am just faulty.

My battle with Excel VBA yesterday was won after many hours of 'fiddling' with the code and several 'Ive given up' phases. Tutned out to be a really odd excel 'special' nasty. Pleased that I got it sorted as it affected the core of my App which I rely on.
 
@Flower well done on the HS. 🙂

@Northerner I've just noticed your profile banner. I saw this in Sainsbury's around Christmas time. But when I came back later to buy it they had no stock.

4.5 Great run on treadmill last night, say run but jog really, but 40 mins in time to my dance music, got a great buzz after.

I suffer from mild tinnitus as well
This app plays pink noise for you and can help relieve it

Morning all. 8.0 @ 8.37 and a text to say make an appointment for my jab but none for Mum, but she's more at risk than me! Not best pleased.
 
Good morning and its a straight 5.0 here. Weight 66.7Kg. All good.

Had a strange thing last night, my annoying tinnitus suddenly got worse on the right side and was accompanied with a slight numbness in the right ear. The increase in tinnitus and numbess have cleared this morning. Back to the old constant high pitched shreek. Got me a bit worried for a bit.
God a fellow tinnitus sufferer too Gwynn, funny enough mine is right ear too you have my sympathy it drives me mad sometimes, it often changes pitch and loudness with me
 
Another 7.2 this morning it’s becoming a habit this last week but I can’t complain about it at least it’s stable.
Have a great day everyone and batten down the hatches we have a big storm starting and I believe it’s heading west, apparently lots of snow
 
3.8 for me today but Libre reads a bit low and to be honest I am not even that unhappy with a 3.8. I'm either hypo or double figures at the moment and the occasional hypo relieves the monotony of injecting apparently ineffective insulin corrections every two hours. Went to bed on 11 and had a slow steady descent, so for most of the night I was reasonably in range which is better than I manage during the day! I have been upping Levemir doses but really must get out for some exercise as I am sure that is the key. The combination of weather being shocking and GGs needing more attention has meant I am struggling for time and motivation. Need to set myself a very easy target to get started again. I should be going shopping today for chicken feed as well as owner feed but I am going to see if I can stretch things out until Monday as it will hopefully be quieter then. Water levels were scary here at home last night having lashed it down most of the day but thankfully it eased off overnight so I am breathing a sigh of relief until the next deluge arrives. Everything is so water logged!

@Flower Many congratulations on your House Special. Hope the roller coaster levels out soon but great that you managed to catch it at the optimum point on the ride!... That's skill!! 😉 Good luck with your new cast. Who would believe that with an empty calendar, the only 2 fixtures could clash!
@Michael12421 So relieved that Pablo is better and clear of the virus. Hope your car starts OK and hasn't been left with the handbrake on! Pleased to see you with a higher reading this morning. Was worried that you might be heading for a bad episode when you were a bit low yesterday.
@MeeTooTeeTwo Dez I am impressed that you managed to download a photo when your broadband speed is zilch.... well done!.... must have taken a lot of pedaling! You have my heart felt sympathies dealing with BT/Openreach. They have clearly not improved in the last 15+years. I honestly don't know why anyone stays with them.... Ok, I know we can't really avoid Openreach but they seem to work better with other communications companies, even though they used to be part of BT. I am so frustrated for you just reading your reports. The level of miscommunication would make a good comedy sketch and so similar to my bad experiences with them but utterly frustrating! At least you won't have a problem with lockdown hair as you will have pulled it all out!

Morning all, a very later check in today - 6.8 this morning, a bit high again, but ah well.

Afternoon of rugby today with the Six Nations kicking off..... England for the grand slam this year ? 😉

Have a great day everyone 🙂
