Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning all!

Officially part of the 40+ club following yesterday's watershed big birthday! Thanks very much to everyone here who wished me bonne chance entering into middle age!

FBG this morning after a Malaysian takeaway dinner and beer (more than 1) took me to 7.0. Today, is back to the low carb routine.

Hotel breakfast of omelette, grilled bacon, fizzy water and now an outdoor black Americano staring at the blueberry muffins I know I can't have before heading in for a stressful morning earning pennies.

Wish all a super middle of the week.
 
6.4

Saw my nephew for half an hour this morning which was an unexpected surprise!

Now about to dial into Court proceedings for the day.
 
@ColinUK Good luck today.

@Maca44 could you keep your cat in overnight? Mine go outdoors but not much during nesting season/overnight as we have a lot of wildlife in the garden. It's good of you to care!

A 6.6 for me this morning. Forgot to add I'm going to the diabetic clinic this morning for the first time in ages. Getting better control but I still feel nervous about it.
 
5.6 for me today
 
In the 10s and 11s all night despite a 2 unit correction at bedtime plus 2 units of Levemir last night. Shot myself another 2 units Fiasp earlier this morning and still woke up on a disappointing 7.8. You would think I was injecting water! Had another day of corrections every 2 hours yesterday to keep me from double figures during the day so I have upped my morning Levemir to 22 units today. Fingers crossed I will be less like a pincushion today but not looking good at the moment as 9.1 and on the up and all I have had is coffee (with butter again as I didn't get to the shops yesterday) and I injected 2 units for FOTF. Arrgh!! Wonder if it is because I am suffering from a bit of hayfever?
 
A 4.6 for me at 06:14 this morning. Dull and overcast in West Berkshire although it is meant to be better tomorrow and Friday.

Just finished my first attempt at Ciabatta bread. They are cooling on a wire rack downstairs. Might do some scones later as I've run out of yeast so no more bread baking until Sainsbury's come on Saturday.

DON'T SAY IT! I'm dreading grass season and how it might affect my sugars - I usually take 4 antihistamines a day mid-May to mid-August - and that only just sits on it.

He is a night cat he sleeps all day then goes out around 3am I watch him on CCTV the others just go out to sit in the sun one is almost blind so couldn't catch a cold let alone a mouse and the female isn't bothered. Problem is I would rather he went out at night when there is no traffic.
The other day I came down to have my coffee in the summer room only to see an upright Mouse head looking at it's own liver & tail both neatly laid out it's horrible but I did think he might be a serial cat killer otherwise he like to put the heads/tail/Liver in my slippers 😱.

Sounds like he enjoys being out catting. 😎 One of ours likes leaving mouse entrails on bedroom floors.
