Group 7-day waking average?

BCC Verify - What we do know is it was not between 01:00 and 02:00 as the hour did not exist. Unconfirmed reports say some shift workers are being deducted and hours pay! :(

That's annoying! I hope they do at least get an extra hour in October then. When I worked as an agency nurse, my pay was for actual hours worked but the ward (substantive) staff didn't get extra in October or less in March on the assumption it would balance out
 
6.7 for me this morning. Annoyingly df guessed closed than me :rofl:. Maybe still the effects of pizza and cookie dough at (late) lunch yesterday as although tea was late I only had three bean chilli soup (18g carbs) and a beer.

Congrats to @Gwynn and @harbottle on your HS!
 
Morning all. 5.9.

I started with a cold yesterday and it’s gonna be a stinker, I just know. Went out last night to a Soul Night with old friends ( from school) and had three glasses of wine but my BGs remained stubbornly high all night even after all the dancing I did! Left the car and walked home, 20 minutes, BGs then decided to drop, shared a slice of toast with Mr Eggy. Got home at 12.45, after consuming our supper we got in bed at 2.04! Of course as soon as I lay down I couldn’t breath and my nose was pouring ( TMI?) I haven’t had a good night, took painkillers at 6,30 as my whole face was aching and still was when I woke at 9.30. Sore throat, headache, dry cough, the lot! I really haven’t time for this, I’ve four bags of tatties to shape into fondant shapes, make a rhubarb crumble and a caramelised shallot tart, amongst lots of other things for the hordes coming tomorrow. I’ll just keep taking the tablets and collapse on Tuesday! :( The one good thing is the sun is shining and I’ve put a wash on. Small wins.

Have a lovely day whatever your plans.
 
Morning everyone

A fine sunny and wind free day here at the moment, just right for my happy 5.8 - I do like happy numbers.

Have a lovely weekend everyone and stay safe.

Happy Easter
7.4 today, wouldn’t have been surprised it wasn’t higher following Doner kebab and hot cross bun yesterday evening.
one fence panel mended in garden yesterday and back garden landscaping has begun.
congratulations to @Gwynn & @harbottle on the HS’s

Have a super Sunday everyone 😎
 
Morning all - just! Another can't make it's mind up day. Got absolutely soaked yesterday on our way into town and later coming home.

10.5 this morning. Not entirely sure why, though I think some health issue is grumbling away in the background. I suppose it could have been the fish, chips and mushy peas we had last night though.

Will be spending today like @eggyg prepping tomorrow's lunch, though we only have 3 coming not hordes! Smoked trout and prawns, roast lamb with all the trimmings, and a rather complicated Limoncello and white chocolate cheesecake. I've made it before very successfully so hope it comes out OK this time.

Congratulations to @Gwynn and @harbottle on the HS

@Eternal422 super photos! Thank you for those!

Happy Easter everyone!
 
Happy Easter everyone didn't get chance to post yesterday we have a marine reef tank and decided to take a trip out further afield to buy some corals and a mandarin fish eventually after doing the last bits of shopping and sorting out new marine corals it was 7pm don't know where the time went anyway yesterday was 4.8 last 2 days of the sensor decided to let it run its course Abbott have sent a new one this morning sensor said 7.2 finger prick 5.2. Out this evening for dinner hope you all have a good day x
 
Morning All and white rabbits,All Fools day,Bank Holiday Easter Monday- take your pick.
A 7.2 for me but again a pretty flat line and a good nights sleep.
Walked the pooches and light drizzly rain and will now grab an extra hour or so rest before deciding what to do today- probably not a lot.
Spent some time in garden yesterday and weeding etc always gets my levels down quickly so usually take on extra carbs so hot cross buns etc so then a rise just when I am feeling tired.
Last day of holiday so see what the week brings but looks quite routine work wise and just the way I like it.
Anyway let us all Spring forward and do whatever we wish
 
7.5 for me this morning (about 8 hours ago now for us!)

Despite dire warnings of storms and heavy rain we just had a few showers so were able to still get around and take photos. Restocked on food and drink from Woolworths (a very nice supermarket here) in Warrnambool about an hour’s drive from where we are staying in Port Campbell.

Got better pictures of the 12 Apostles today!

5.6…

Quite reassuring to things don’t see to have changed much since stopping Metformin.
 
Morning all. 5.2, a unicorn and 100% TIR for the last 90 days! 😛 April Fool! It was really 5.6 but I did get a unicorn. So I wasn’t completely fibbing!

Still feel like I’m on death’s door and feel like I’ve hardly slept, but as I do, I’ll march on and get my prep finished for the hordes descending this evening. Three members of the same family are working until 6 so starters for 6.30 and we’ll go from there. I’ve just sent a message on our family group to tell them the beef is off and we’re having sausages instead and do they want egg and chips with them or just mash. I also asked them what flavour Angels Delight they wanted for pudding. Don’t think they believe me, I’m just getting daft answers with laughing emojis! As if I’d fib to my own children?😉 ( Or give them Angel Delight!)

Have a good Bank Holiday, after two lovely sunny, quite warm days it’s now drizzling. Ah well, I wasn’t going anywhere much further than the compost bin!
