Group 7-day waking average?

[PattiEvans]

7.1 this morning, but yesterday is best forgotten. Was helping a friend create a photobook as a Christmas present for her partner. Started with techy stuff getting photos off her iPad and iPhone onto my laptop with Win10 and then another 4 hours solid work. Was too tired to cook dinner afterwards so ate a sandwich and had high BGs all evening which didn’t come down a lot overnight.

Pleased to hear some good news from our fellow members this morning.

Just a little note, post, of interest! Remember I said I watched Brian Cox’s new series Universe on BBC iPlayer the other night? I ordered the free poster as well & it arrived in this morning’s post & it’s wrapped in a plastic free clear cellophane looking bag that’s made from NatureFlex TM. It’s compostable, renewable & responsibility soured from wood pulp! 😎 So, there you go; there’s plastic free cellophane wrappers now! Oh! The poster looks pretty great too if you want to order it from the website or phone number at the end of each of the 5 episodes!😛

My National Trust mag comes in a compostable plastic bag. I also use compostable bin bags. Pricier than normal obviously but I don’t have much rubbish as I recycle
/ reuse most things and veggie peelings go in the garden compost bin. The Coop now take soft plastic to recycle, ie carrier bags, crisp packets, bread packets, cling film. I wash out bread packets and use them as freezer bags or for wrapping things in. We’ve been recycling for 35 years, when it was just cans, glass and paper and you had to travel to collection points. When they started roadside pickups I was overjoyed, and when they started picking up plastic I cried! It’s a passion of ours.

Edited to say, some Coops, not all.

Morning all and 6.1 for me.

Leave sweeping duties again. The Rowan looks like it's done shedding but the ash and the cherry are still contributing handsomely.

Have a good day everyone.

7.5 this morning, but completely lost the plot the last couple of days. Have a horrible headache today and just want to cry. Hoping I am up to a run this evening with the running club as hoping that will bring me out of this slump I have been in, too frightened to get on the scales and see what the damage from the last week of eating badly has done.

Have a good day everyone.

7.7 today which is odd as my carb intake yesterday was only about 30g but I did cycle 10km and had a disturbed night of sleep so guess that’s all part of the reading this morning.
WFH today and have a call later with the chap who set up SurvivorsUK to see if there’s anyway I can use my professional skills to help them with fundraising or marketing.
And Facebook popped up a memory of it being 5 years since quite simply the most unique feline ever was led across the rainbow bridge.
He was only young but had epilepsy brought on by a brain tumour and I miss him every day still.

And yes that was his full name!

Was he a Siamese? He looks gorgeous. And did he get his full name when you called for him? Or just on high days and holidays?

A 5.5 for me at 06:13 this morning. I'm going to have a busy weekend as last weekend's storm has done some damage. We have two huge branches that have come down off a pine tree, a small shrubby tree that has uprooted and a large mature apple tree that has sheared off about 5 feet from the ground. Chain saw time me thinks

Ah! Things are moving very fast! Already gotten 3 phone calls today: 2 from my health centre & 1 from hosp. doctor from yesterday! First one from the health centre saying GP has referred me urgently to get seen by gastrointestinal sooner & second to say GP is going to book me a telephone slot to speak to me about the referral & will get an appointment in the post. Last one from hosp. doctor to say he’s changing my basal to Tresiba & DSN will contact me to teach me how to use it before the switchover! He said that switch should solve the lumpy/bumpy problem as lesser volume will be injected!

But, I have to say a more concentrated basal worry’s me a bit because of the potential for more & lower hypos if things go wrong!

He and his brother were Birman’s. Jasper was a seal point and his brother a seal tabby.
And they both only ever got their full names when they’d been super mischievous

We lost ours a year ago and still the place seems empty without him. Can understand your grief over a cat, I still turn around after seeing something out of the corner of my eye and realize a second later he's no longer there.
Here he is making mischief with our xmas tree about 2008 in Perth WA

Here is the bit fat tub o'lard with our little granddaughter. He weighed in at 24kg at his top weight!

Good morning - 7.3

 

[freesia]

Good morning. 7.2

 

[Kopiert]

Missed yesterday - sorry.

7.3 this morning, very disappointing, although I did take the reading about an hour after I got up - so maybe not a real fasting number.

 

[stackingcups]

7 for me today.

 

[Gwynn]

Good morning everyone. Just to break the 7's from people this morning my BG 4.8

I shall brave the cold this morning after breakfast.

7.7 this morning after pigging out on a packet of pistachios 🙄. Going to pack today and have been given an appointment for bladder and bowel service today after it was cancelled. The first one available was 27th January but they decided I needed to be seen and so was offered one today - how does that work? Still I’m not complaining.
Soo excited about our long weekend away, photos of where we are going below. It is an Elizabethan country manor where Henry VIII courted Jane Seymour and is supposed to be the 2nd most haunted house in the country!!
Have a good day all xx
