Group 7-day waking average?

6.2 for me this morning. Wasted most of my day off reading funny stories on Not Always Right website
 
Late, late posting was called early for granny duties, hope everyone has had a good day 4.8 for me on waking this morning

Well done with a 4.8 as well this evening. Nearly equivalent to two HSs!

Thank you but don't know how I managed it, I have been rushing around all day and have walked my oldest granddaughter, 4 years old, to school and back whilst pushing the youngest, 1 year old, and all the other associated tasks, making meals, cleaning them and their mess up ... but have to say I would not have it any other way 🙂

I'm not a great monarchist but it does sound strange people referring to Charles as the King.

Have a good day everyone.

Yes I double-take every time I hear references to the King, and when people say King Charles I instinctively think of someone with much bigger hair.

And I’ve been amazed at the huge variety of little things that will now alter, like barristers no longer being QCs, but now KCs - King’s Chancellors
 
6.3 today
Exhausting day yesterday. Started with a brilliant therapy session and then hobbled up to Westminster Abbey to hear the start of the bell tolling. I hadn’t realised it was one ring per minute tbh and there wasn’t a chance of me standing there for an hour and a half listening to it.
Friend met me at the Abbey and we went off up to the palace and then in to Hyde Park to hear the gun salute.
That was quite a moving experience and I’m pleased we witnessed it.
Then straight off to see the folks; explain the psychological concept of the inner child, finish setting up their bank cards on Apple Pay, bring them up to speed on the police activity and therapy and other stuff before dinner.
Left the house at 8:15am, walked 18,423 steps, returned home at 11:50pm and was knackered.
Of course I woke up at 1:15, 3 and finally 4am. Meditated, read a bit etc.

Creative writing session this morning, the topic/theme of which honestly fills me with dread and spikes my discomfort and anxiety but I guess that means it’s a topic worth focusing on.

Oh and work has declared that we’re shut all week next week because of the Queen.
Impromptu week off but it’s unpaid ffs!
 
Morning all. 6.9 ( no giggling on the back row @ColinUK ) and we’ve got WiFi in the forest. No phone signal at all but who uses their phones to actually call anyone anymore? It’s all messenger and WhatsApp these days.

Lovely to be all together, albeit noisy and expensive. We paid for last night’s meal for our daughter’s 30th birthday treat. We needed a lie down with a wet flannel after we got back! They certainly know how to charge, captive audience and all that. Think today will be swimming, walking and trying not to get lost. At least it’s dry, it was pretty wet yesterday when we arrived.

Over and out from deepest darkest Cumbria. See you all tomorrow. Have a stupendous Saturday.

A very rare photo of all thirteen of us. Me and Mr Eggy, three daughters, three sons-in-law and the five grandchildren.

As if I’d ever be so childish!

Great photo but tell me what did the bald guy on the left do to annoy you so much he’s not allowed at the table with you any more?!

Morning all, 5.3 here. Every so often I get a short run in the 5s, then Dawn comes back from her holidays and I start shooting into the 7s again. I’ve never worked out why.

Because she can?
 
5.6 for me today. 🙂

Photo is sunrise over the Isle of Mull as I got up early (well actually didn’t really get to sleep) for the ferry to Coll and Tiree. Checkin was 6:15am, may spend the rest of the day trying to wake up!
 
5.5 for me this morning, was 6.2 at bedtime but that was an hour after raspberries and yogurt for supper, surprised really at how 'normal' taking bg, watching it rise and fall has become.
Hope everyone has a good day! Still very damp and grey here but may get out for a walk
