Group 7-day waking average?

Woke up super early with a 6.7 which I'm delighted with as I had spag bol last night and wasn't awake for the fast acting to be done with so a nice surprise to see it was all fine.

Hope you all have a great weekend!
 
Good morning - 5.9. A bit chilly today following yesterday's deluge - have had to turn CH on. Finished the workshop by 20.00 yesterday, all tidy and everything in its place, just a large wheel barrowful of rubbish to take to the tip. So today I shall be finishing off the woodshed extension with a new door and then splitting logs. How did I ever find time to work?
Next task is to move the hay out of the spare loose box so Loui has a winter berth but I draw the line at that. Alex and Carla, whose combined age does not equal my own, can have that job once I source a few big pallets to keep the bottom layer dry. I am planning on smug supervision of the stacking.
The vile cold is definitely on its way out and pain levels are down to quite tolerable. Must think of some mischief to get up to. Also need to re-stock the big freezer - has anyone used one of the online fish companies? Most of the local supermarkets seem to concentrate on farmed salmon (yuck) and sea bass (not my favourite fish).
Taras seems quite happy despite working long hours but no news of the rest of the family altho' I fielded another 2 phone calls from "the authorities" yesterday. They seem confused by "your guess is as good as mine". Hopefully the Red Cross will elicit a response soon. I doubt I can stall the education department much longer so, if they do come back the children will have to be re-enrolled. Oh well, I managed it once ...

Good morning everyone.

All good

I didn't get to fix the rocket yesterday as I could not find any suitable glue.

But I did manage to make a stuffed marrow (stuffed with mince) for tea. It wasn't very nice. A big disappointment after all the effort I had put in. Mince was good. Marrow was yuk. I felt bad about all the energy I had wasted too.

Have a great day today whatever you are doing. 🙂
 
Good morning everyone! 5.4 with a slightly earlier than usual Saturday morning for us as we have the grandchildren staying this weekend! Planning a trip out to the Cotswold Wildlife Park with them today which should be fun and the weather looks to be ok too!

Hope everyone has a good day!
 
Morning all. 6.3 quickly dropping to 4.6.

Up and out early this morning for a day out. Still tired from last week but i'll snooze in the car.

Have a good day everyone.
 
I’m never going to sustain this streak but wordle in 3 again today.

Cold is on the way out. Slowly. But it is going.

Two sessions with Survivors today, first is creative writing and second is a more directly therapeutic group. Both are useful after therapy yesterday was cancelled because the psych wasn’t well!

Morning all. 🙂 An extremely unwelcome and inexplicable 15.0 for me. BGs are very random atm - either low, low, low or super-high. Ah, the delights of this diabetes malarkey. I’m not letting it spoil my fun tho. 🙂

Enjoy the weekend!
 
Morning all. 6.4 today. New sensor and my stomach behaved theirselves yesterday. For that I am grateful.

Going to be another hot one today, I didn’t sign up for this, it really shouldn’t be as hot as it is this time of year. I’ve been in October before and it’s been perfect. But like everywhere it’s been unusually hot this year. No doubt this time next week I’ll be complaining its too cold and wet! We’re having a beach day today and lunch out. Got my Kindle all charged up and ready to go. I’m on book four already this week. Mr Eggy is on page four of the book he’s been reading since August!

Have a smashing Saturday whatever you’re all up to. 🙂

I’ve put one of Mr Eggy’s arty farty B&W photos on today as I think it’s rather good. He’s a clever lad really even he does read at a snails pace compared to me! 😉

Morning all, 6.1 here. According to the rules, I can go out today if I’m symptom free, provided I keep away from vulnerable people. How's that supposed to work? They’re not labelled! May try a short walk, but will stay away from the busy weekly market.
 
5.4 for me.
 
5.7 for me today. 🙂

Morning all. I'm watching a Ruth Rendell, not seen these before so I'm giving it a whirl. I was 7.6 @ 7.00 am 🙂 have a good day all.
 
4.5 for me at 6am, the sun is shining this morning and have already weeded a small area of garden whilst watching dogs enjoying being out, yesterday was so wet they ran out to toilet and ran back in again, the older they get the less they like being in rain, but let them get a sniff of a muddy puddle and they'll be rolling in it :rofl: :rofl:
 
9.1 with a couple if corrections last night I must have been rising fast. I wonder if the food I eat a dinner was one of the things which had a delayed relies.
 
06:52 BS 6.1 🙂 Yay! Haven’t been in target range these days & it’s nice to be back there!:D

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Coming back out from under the weather now as at SOME point, not sure WHEN, I noticed that I was less winded going to the bathroom yesterday. Then, I slept a bit just after 6pm as I remember thinking ITT will be on soon but, couldn’t hold on & dropped off! Then, around 20:30 ish a text message ding woke me up, must have been lightly asleep in between dreams perhaps or it wouldn’t have woken me up, to a surprise text from my favourite nephew, the son of my sister that passed in 2018, saying he & his wife were in Ballymoney & wanted to take me out for lunch today! I said yes because I haven’t seen him in AGES, since before his mum passed, & I was getting my breath back! I REALLY noticed it after I got up to go again & I’m definitely not as short of breath as before! 🙂

So, my nephew & his wife, whom I’ve never met before, are picking me up around 11:00 this morning & we’ll have a catch up & some lunch! 😛😎

I was WAY too extreme in my late teens & 20’s & I always scared young children except for the 2, later 3, sons of my eldest brother who I grew up with & more like younger brothers since I was only 6 & 8 years older! The rest of my nephews & nieces being younger were scared of me EXCEPT this one! I first met him in HK as a baby straight off the plane when my sister, with him in tote, handed him straight to me & to my sheer SURPRISE he DIDN’T cry! 😱:D From then on that summer in HK my younger sister, younger brother & I had great fun with the little toddler & we were there to teach him, to witness is maybe more accurate, his first steps when he began wakking!😎:D😛 He’s very into the creative arts, into science, loves to bake & we loved “The Two Fat Ladies” the best, & taking walks in the park when his mum & him lived in Ballymoney! But, my sister moved back to Bury, in Greater Manchester, shortly after he started high school to be with his dad & I REALLY missed my little soul mate of a nephew!

I’m REALLY looking forward to seeing him again & meet his wife! 😛
