Group 7-day waking average?

Congratulations @Gwynn on your HS, hopefully you will get your share of the warm weather.

4.9 for me today, so happy with that, going out for my run soon before it gets too hot. My lovely son treated me to new trainers and some yoga stuff yesterday, so will just be a short one as first time out in them, then this afternoon is a 2hr yoga session.
 
Congratulations on your House Special @Gwynn!

6.8 for me, not bad considering I was running a little low in my range last night according to Dexcom, and needed a precautionary swig of lucozade at about 5am.

I suspect the warmer weather is meaning I‘ll have to wind my basals down a little more.
 
Photos of my new running shoes and yoga bits that my son treated me to yesterday, as well as driving me to the running shop and buying me a coffee while we sat people watching. A lovely way to celebrate getting a promotion at work to treat his mum.

5.9 this morning.
Time for some Netflix before participating in family stuff.

Oh and I’m back at work this week all being well. Just doing two half days to ease myself back in very gently after almost 4 months off.
Boss has been great and suggested that instead of the traditional “let him know if I’m not feeling up to it” approach switched it on its head. So now I’ll text him if I do feel able to work. No text, he won’t expect to see me. Zero pressure and vast amounts of compassion, understanding and empowerment by being positively minded.

I sent him a text on Friday… and yes he’s a good boss but he’s still a twat at times!

Morning all. 6.6 today. Been up a while but got distracted by grandchildren and hubbies! I never got my bit of peace this morning unfortunately! Family BBQ later, hope the weather bucks its ideas up. Originally was going to be “ scorchio” not so much now. I don’t know why I’m surprised, I do live in the frozen north after all! I’m sure we’ll make the most of it.

Have a good Sunday everyone. 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.0 here. Had an extra bonus at riding yesterday, the Red Arrows flew over half way through our lesson. I’m sure it was arranged specifically for us, but I think they did a detour via Windsor on their way back, for the Trooping of the Colour. It made us jump, but the horses didn’t turn a hair, they’re used to it, the valley seems to be a bit of a corridor for them.
 
@eggyg is being distracted by the grand kids not a good reason to not have peace and quiet though?

Are you hosting the bbq and can we come? I can bring the good weather with me if you like!

Speaking of weather, here’s the forecast for my area and guess which days I was hoping to do more gardening for the folks as they’ve now got obelisks to go up and a bunch of more plants to go in.
I’ll give you a clue. It’s not today, tomorrow, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.

I like about an hour’s peace before they flounce downstairs demanding full Englishes!
You can definitely come to the BBQ( yes I’m hosting) if you bring some southern weather! Although looking at your forecast I might need the factor 30, this English rose skin doesn’t do 29 degrees! I’ll stick to our forecasted 19 and put a cardi on! PS you can still come but you’ll need your big coat! 😉
 
Good morning All,
A 5.4 this morning, due possibly from doing 40 mins exercise at 10pm last night and dropping from 6.3 at 21:30 to 4.9 at 23:44. Thus had 2 crackers and a coffee giving 6.3 at 00:57.
However the watch fitness rings are happy as movement, exercise and stand rings closed for two days on the trot.
Weight is also coming down slowly but steadily.
Have a great day everyone.

Morning all. 6.2 for me which very quickly dropped to 4.4 as i got out of bed and went downstairs. Unusual, i'm not usually affected by FOTF.
@ColinUK your boss sounds good. Its nice to see you posting.
@Gwynn and @rosalindb congrats on the HS.
@eggyg, enjoy the BBQ and the family being round. Its so nice to be able to do that again.
Its going to be hot, hot, hot today so i need to get the ironing done this morning while its a bit cooler.
Have a good day whatever you are planning.
