Group 7-day waking average?

[rebrascora]

@Nayshiftin You really are doing fantastic! The exercise is a key component and I too find it improves my sleep enormously which then makes you feel like you have more energy the next day, because you are rested. I hope you reap the same benefits as me and soon feel 20 years younger, fitter and slimmer and my joints don't ache like they used to. It is such a good feeling!

 

[Nayshiftin]

Thank you your support is so much appreciated . Will take years small steps but getting there .

It’s 2 hrs on and 5.5 what am I doing different today then . All I can think is somewhere things catch up ?

It'll be your walk yesterday - used up lots of lovely blood glucose!

Afternoon all 3.8 for me today. Have a nice weekend everyone x

I live in Carlisle, born and bred, but paternal side of the family is from Annan, just over the border. We are very lucky to have the lakes and Scotland so close, although we can’t visit Scotland until Monday! It’ll take us 1.5 hours to get to Wastwater. We could be in a Scotland in 10 minutes! Crazy!

Annan...where mum is! When we can, taking her to Del Amitri for dinner - if it's still open of course. Hope you've had a great day.

A 5.5 for me this morning.

The minute @Clifton mentioned "mid life crisis" I immediately thought Convertible, How lovely!

It comes with a baseball cap given the barber shop had to charge me a search fee when I popped in for a trim 😉

Surprised to see a 4.9 pop up on the meter this morning. Haven't been that low on waking since January. Thought about switching hands and doing another test, just to be sure, but decided No - I'll take it.

Another lovely day here in Berkshire but still not very warm, though thankfully not as cold as yesterday as the wind has dropped. Our garden thermometer is still in single figures as I type.

Busy day ahead - fruit & veg run out to the garden centre shortly, then I have to pick up some items from LIDL and then ALDI. Why both you may ask? Have to do both as it's own-brand items we need.

However, highlight of the day is my second jab this afternoon...!

Have a good Friday, everyone.

Martin

Hope the jab went well and no sore arm...

@Clifton. Ah, the joys of vintage motoring. The noise, the teeth rattling ride, the unreliability. You and your wife will still be fighting over use of your proper vehicle I am quite sure!

It's not for a long journey up a motorway that is for sure, but a lot better than I'd thought - we tried one needless to say. The seats are also more comfy than the brick I am currently sat on in this GWR train heading to Bristol! I think I might need a chiropractor...

Morgan Plus 6
Had to look it up and then went to images
Blimey how lovely - except when it has its hard top on. I am jealous

With the hard top, it does look like a pram gone wrong I must say!

 

[Clifton]

Nice.

When I met my wife back in 1989 she was driving a British Racing Green (what else?) MGB and later she had a Suzuki Cappuccino. That went when she was pregnant with our eldest, although she didn't sell it until she started to find it difficult to get in and out of it because of her baby bump.

Lovely car the MGB. My dad had a Midget when we were kids which was interesting - he was 6 feet 3!

 

[Clifton]

I'm home in Bristol. The kids wanted me to test my blood sugars as soon as I walked through the door and it's 5.3! Family support has extended this far!

Great Friday everyone. Have fun, relax enjoy a super gateway into what I hope will be a brilliant weekend for all.

Good morning 🙂 Scientists capture evidence of Dawn Phenomenon in action 😱

 

[Spozkins]

Morning. A slightly lower than I'd like 3.9.

Enjoy your weekend

Good morning. We had a good day yesterday. My wife was well and calm and more engaged, and my daughter rang to ask if we could look after her daughter on Sunday. I feel another day at the sea side coming on. Yessss !!!

It was all good....Except for the central heating engineer. He turned up way late and only after I rang the company to ask if he was coming at all, as promised. He came with the wrong parts, and not some of the parts needed. He did not do the requested service but simply a system check. £70 for that alone. Basically, not a brilliant experience. But he does talk a good talk. He did confirm that everything is working ok and that the carbon monoxide levels are very very low. So that is good. But I found it all a bit stressful.

4.8 BG this morning and 5.4 yesterday evening. I expected it to be raised because of the stress, but it wasn't.

4.8 for me ... it’s the weekend the sun is shining going to make the most of it and go for a picnic . Hope everyone has a lovely day x

 

[MeeTooTeeTo]

5.2 for me today.
Thought I'd lost the knack.😎

Great news.

5.7 this morning. Like a lot of you I’ll be in the garden today.

Morning all. An absolutely amazing 6.5 for me. Amazing as we had fish and chips last night, although TBF I didn’t finish them. After our 12 mile walk in very hot conditions, I was only 4.6 just before eating at 7.15. Decided to do a split bolus of 4 units initially and then check when we got home. So,I forgot to check. 😳 At 11pm last night I was 9.7. So had some insulin still knocking about so just went to bed! I knew the exercise would help too. So glad I didn’t buckle and have a correction.

Had a fantastic day yesterday, we were out for 12 hours! Wastwater was beautiful. Quite busy, not Keswick/Windermere/Ambleside busy of course. Lots of photos taken of the sparkly lake and Scafell Pike and Scafell. Lots of cars in the NT carpark at the foot of them, fools or brave, I can’t decide. Didn’t get to St Bees it was far too late and they don’t have a chippy! So went to Whitehaven, haven’t been for years. Sat and watch a very mediocre sunset whilst eating our spoils but we didn’t mind.

Busy day today, we are going “out” out ! You know, to a pub ( garden)! First time since 1st February 2020! Don’t know what to wear, forecast ok but we won’t be moving, not even to the bar, they have an App! May take my rucksack with hat, scarf and gloves in!

Well that’s my craic for the day. See you in the morning, I won’t be hungover, lightweight! Have a super Saturday everyone. 🙂
