Group 7-day waking average?

@freesia and @Bexlee please enjoy and make the most of your week off, we all appreciate the hard work that you do xxx
 
7.8 today, think it is the stress of worrying about Wednesday and a year ago today was the last time I got to speak to my dad on the phone, oh and not eating well yesterday, that might have done it.

Have a good week everyone.
What a stressful time for you, try to stay focused - I hope all goes well for you Wednesday but any operation is a worry and I shall be thinking of you and wishing you well. Any other emotion, such as your dad, will just compound things so please think good thoughts and we are all here for you, any time day or night. Love to you xxx
 
@rebrascora sounds like you need a nice cuddle, sending a virtual one for you {{{{xx}}}}

All cuddles gratefully received whether needed or deserved.... 😉 Many thanks! Gotta love a cuddle!
 
The cleaners are still here but have to leave in 15 minutes.they will be back tomorrow at 4.30pm to finish off. I need to eat now so the microwave will be on and I have frozen dishes that can be re-heated. The kitchen is almost as clean as an operating theatre. So, dinner and bed. Goodnight all and thank you for your support.

Good morning 5.5

Happy Tuesday Everybody
 
Good morning everyone.

I think the dark mornings are making me wake up later. Anyway BG 4.8. Ok

Off to the hospital this afternoon for a deeper (?) Eye check. I may walk there again. A long walk too.

Pulse is now starting to become more concerning 53 bpm this morning, confirmed by the Omron AND I did feel a bit dizzy the day before last. I may ask to talk to a GP tomorrow. Hmm fun and games getting through to reception and even getting an appointment. I dread the terrible music too.
 
7.5 today. Not sure why but maybe connected to the teeny bit of a sore throat I’ve got.
Dinner last night was chicken curry cooked from scratch in the Instant Pot so nothing in it which should have lifted things too much.
 
Forgot to say I had a call last night with SurvivorsUK therapist and just unloaded everything from the last week.
All I really wanted was the chance to get my thoughts out in one go and writing then didn’t really help. But the call yesterday did.
 
Good morning everyone. Oops after fire fighting with bucketloads of extra insulin the last three days I'm 3.3 and didn't realise that I was hypo. Going to go back to bed once the jelly babies have kicked in.
 
7.2 today after a dreadful nights sleep. Hubby turned the dial on the heating and left it at 20 overnight so woke up baking and had to get up to turn it down. Not sure why he did that as haven’t actually had the heating on as yet. Popping into Brighton today for my yearly visit, shopping is not my favourite thing to do but needs must.
Rang work yesterday to let them know I will definitely be back next Monday and they said I must go back doing only 3 hours a day and they will review it weekly. Fair enough!!
Have a good day all x
 
Morning all. :D 5.4 here.

Met a bossy dog owner on our walk yesterday - her dog wouldn’t obey her so she started telling us to “stand still”. 😳 Good grief...I hope we don’t run into HER today (the dog was a sweetie).:D
 
Morning all, 8.8 here! That’s three mornings in a row out of kilter, and I was high for hours after lunch yesterday. Did a huge correction last night and thought, whoops, I think I've overdone that, but it barely had any effect, so Plan A is, ditch the tail end of the insulin cartridge and start a fresh one. The pen was kicking round in my bumbag most of last week.
