Group 7-day waking average?

@Anitram crowns are a nightmare! I had 4 but 1 of the front ones just wouldn't bond at all and just slid out! I only have 2 left now as the other 2 were taken out the other year along with another tooth, much better with a partial denture now, always looked after my teeth but during my teenage years was very prone to abscesses for some reason! xx
 
I have a partial denture, too. The only reason my dentist did root canal work and crowned this particular tooth was because it was one of the anchor points for my denture. If I end up losing the tooth I'll need a new partial denture with an extra tooth on it.
I'm on my 3rd partial, my first I couldn't wear for some time due to an abscess on the roof of my mouth so my gums changed shape and teeth moved in while they were out so had to get new and then I had the other teeth removed so needed a new one with those added, also got 3 metal caps on back teeth, I was destined to have bad teeth I'm sure, my mum has bone shrinkage in her gums and I had extra teeth haha xx
 
A busy day in the offing - I need to get three proposals out the door by the end of Friday so need to crack on with them. 6.0 for me at 06:54. A sunny but very windy day in West Berks this morning.

@Pine Marten Happy Birthday - I hope you have a great day
@MAC2020 Congrats on the HS
@eggyg What did Mr Eggyg treat himself to?
He eventually settled on the Nikon D850 SLR after debating between that and the mirror less Nikon. It has honestly taken months to decide. Wilkinson’s even got one in for him to try, but he thought it was too slow? Don’t ask me, I know nothing. I’m a point and shoot gal! Happy with my Panasonic LUMIX compact. He’s in the shower at the moment and we’ve just had an email to say Dave is delivering it between 13.07 and 14.07! Wait until I tell him, he’ll be like a giddy kipper! :D
 
. I applaud you for setting an alarm to check.
I don't think my hubby was too impressed lol. I think it woke him each time it went off. Corrections still not working. Had an extra 2u corr with breakfast but its gone up not down o_O!! I've got a zoom meeting soon and don't dare do another correction before just in case i hypo on screen.
I hope your levels have settled down now.

When do we get the photo of your turquoise hair?

Good old Dave. They all seem to be called Dave and are very precise with their times. Dave, your van will self destruct if don’t deliver before 14:07!!

I have a friend called David. He lost his id so we now call him Dav.

You know that Freddie Mercury had for extra teeth in his mouth? That gave him a huge mouth space and in turn gave him an incredible vocal range.
Question is therefore can you sing?! 🙂

I've had to have 2x 2unit corrections this morning on top of the 2units for FOTF and 3 for breakfast but I've got it on the run now! 8.1 with a downward sloping arrow. I even added an extra Levemir this morning, so I am still needing far more insulin than a few weeks ago before the vaccine, but then I really haven't felt well the last few days which is why no photo. I am terribly unphotogenic at the best of times, so I really have to feel at my best if I am going to take a photo to post online. It will happen eventually.

I didn't know that! I've been told I can sing and I was in the choir at primary school and a couple of years whilst I was at the high school xx

Dave had just arrived at 13.12, thank goodness! Mr Eggy was on pins from 13.07! Couldn’t have stood it until 14.07!

I formally anoint you our Queen!

Well one of them anyway Darling 🙂

Good old Dave. Now you just need to reply to the text and/or email asking how Dave did.

I'm having the vaccine on Friday. Need to get levels sorted before then if i'm going to need more insulin. I've just had 10u for lunch...unheard of!!! I'm sure you look fine but i know what you mean, i don't like photos of myself.

not everyone has had raised levels after it, some haven't even had a sore arm so don't panic

Bruce still hasn't heard about his and when he started his moaning last night he was promptly told that I know someone who had cancer in 2019 and was in hospital for a heart op last week and he still hasn't heard nor do they have him on the list to contact soon either so just wait your turn, honestly he's acting like they are out to get him because they tightened the asthma thing! So no longer falls into it for that

I know people who both have and haven't had any side effects so will wait and see. Need to get levels sorted anyway so putting basal back up again tonight, see if that works x
 
5.1 for me, which is surprising because I had rather more carbs than usual for tea last night.
 
06:08 BS 5.2 Yay! :D My first HS of the year!🙂

Well, I got a call from my local Health Centre yesterday as I’d just ordered some insulin the day before & mentioned I’d booked my vaccine in Ballymena, bigger town 14 miles away, & they said I’m on their list of vaccines anyway as they were doing diabetics 50 & over right now! I just missed out, 49, & would be next in the next 3 weeks or so & Ballymena are now doing the ones with shielding letters from their GP’s & I would be turned away without one! So, I cancelled the Ballymena appointments & said my own Health Centre is doing vaccines & I’ll get it done there! The confusion came about because of my other siblings all getting theirs at Ballymena by online booking at the Leisure Centre at Ballymena when I’d already received Dad’s appointment letter, from our Health Centre, to get it done at the Ballymoney Leisure Centre earlier! So, it was a good thing I mentioned it on the online prescription form: I always like to tell my GP’s whatever I think they should know; have gotten notes from them in my prescription items answering questions &, if more urgent, I get phone calls as well! o_O🙂 The Health Centre is doing the Oxford one as opposed to Ballymena doing the Pfizter! I asked about, since she (practice nurse) was on the line anyway, about any dangers or things getting worse with my long COVID symptoms & she said, baring in mind no one will know how I will react to the vaccine until I get it, she doesn’t think I’ll be in danger as it’s only ever been my asthma that flares up & I don’t get any other symptoms.

Glad that’s sorting itself out & I just have to be patient for a bit to get my vaccine letter: works out better as I don’t need to travel so far! 🙂

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