Group 7-day waking average?

A 4.7 for me at 05:59 this morning. Lot's of cloud here in West Berks although I have my legs out again. We're forecast showers tonight and tomorrow so doubtless the grass will shoot up again. On a brighter note the Wisteria is full of buds so hopefully we will get a good show this year.
 
And belated congrats to @Freddie1966 and @eggyg on the House Specials. I made a note and then forgot 🙂
 
4.3 and I'm knackered after mad day at work but sad because lots of the meds delivery's were end of life meds I have never delivered so many since doing this so didn't finish until 8pm. When I have a down day I always remind myself that I always have the next day to enjoy :( .
 
My pre breakfast readings are usually in the 8s and oddly, after my nib oatmeal porridge, it drops to the low 7s. I gave up the Metformin a month ago. I hope these are acceptable levels.

This is one of my favourite's it's a beautiful plant also the Magnolias are out where I live they seem to do well here but a few doors up a Wisteria covers the whole front of ahouse and it's stunning.

Congrats to @eggyg and @Freddie1966.

My high score was a disappointment 5.6 this morning, far from a HS and way off from the 4s I’m aiming for. Nevermind, there’s always room for improvement.

I tried to grow and train wisteria in my garden. Took me 10 years but still wasn’t as exceptional and plentiful as others I’ve seen locally, too much greenery and not enough flowers. It’s all in the pruning I’m told. So for now I’ll have to rely on the wisteria, magnolia and other floral displays at Kew and of course the tulips at Keukenhof (when allowed).
 
Cramp 7 and a bit miles in wasn’t what I’d hoped for today. But still got to see two kestrels.

Congratulations! I think that is your best reading since you started posting isn't it. Sometimes you just have to hang in there until things settle down and come right..... at least that's what I keep telling myself! 🙄
 
@colin Hope you managed to hobble to the nearest establishment to rehydrate as I believe that can help with cramp. 😉
 
G'day all. 8.4 @ 8.24 paid £16 for psyllium husks and it's foul, but don't want to waste all that money! :(

@MAC2020 my sister has green fingers, her Wistaria flowered abundantly the very first year and almost took over the garden. Some peoples can just grow stuff! A lot of it might be luck I think. That's what I tell myself anyway. 🙂
 
@rebrascora i think the DF has been visiting us. Yesterday i needed a few corrections to bring levels down and its the same today. I needed a correction with breakfast but it didn't work so had another 3.5 hours later. By lunch it had only just dipped into the high 9s but didnt correct again as it had only been 2 hrs since the correction and i knew i was going to be really active this afternoon. Checked mid afternoon to find it had gone up again!! Have just had another correction. I've no idea what is going on atm. Very fed up.

Hot Bath. One handful of powered ginger and similar amount of sea salt. Soak for 15 mins. Kestrels - how fabulous!
