Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 8.4 after another spike overnight caused by a very stubborn hypo. TIR this past week hasn't been very good, despite my best efforts.

I'm off to see mum this morning. The carers have stopped going in again so thats good for mum's independence. Hopefully she keeps it up and has no more falls.

Its going to be hot today, 27° feeling like 30° so i doubt i shall be doing much else. The washing will dry but no way am i ironing in that heat.

Have a good day whatever you do.
 
A 4.9 for me first thing this morning. I decided to stay in bed to do the Sunday cryptic crossword and managed it in a record 55 minutes. 😎
Have a good Sunday everybody.

Good morning HS on what’s predicted to be Sunshine Sunday
Although I had another (just before the weekend) these are quite rare for me.

I didn’t make it out for the planned swim yesterday,
but did some work in sorting in the garage yesterday

Have a lovely day 😎

5.7 on this bright & sunny Berkshire morning. Today's forecast to be a scorcher here, tomorrow even more so. Just pegged 2 machine loads of washing on the line and I expect it'll be completely dry by lunchtime. Time to take the covers off the garden furniture, for the first time in over a week.

Sainsbury's have responded to our youngest handing in his notice by offering him a new contract with more hours and, believe it or not, the week off for our Cornwall holiday at the end of the month. It was saying no to his holiday request that made him hand in his notice in the first place. The downside is that they expect him to work the Saturday we have our annual November weekend away with friends - 7 families, and this will be the 20th year - plus Boxing Day.

Congrats @goodybags on your HS this morning

Have a good Sunny Sunday.
 
Morning everyone, I’m with Goodybags with another 5.2 today, first one of those in a while.

Have a good day everyone and stay safe.

Hi Colin sounds perfect a walk with lots of dogs along one of the most lovely and spiritual ( in general sense not religious ) places I can think of.
 
My libre was showing a 5.2 this morning.
Just got back from a week in Bulgaria, where I have 'eaten normally' for a week (Don't mention the black sea mussels, though.😳) Potato, puddings (Mmm, cheesecake!), fries, gelato and beer.
Pushing it a bit given that I'm due a 3 month hba1c to see what the result of stopping 500mg of Metformin has been.
 
4.7 for me this morning finger prick, my Libre fell of yesterday morning got a replacement on the way but decided to have a couple of day without one, ive not been doing finger pricks unless my BS are out of range so thought it would be interesting to just finger prick, I was surprised to find at bed time just before sleeping it was 4.6 so had a snack to ward off a hypo, then this morning again lower than normal, so I'm going to put a new sensor on tomorrow and wait the usual 2 days before starting it up have a good day everyone
 
5.6 today which surprised me as I had a large plate of vegetable rice with my Lamb Madras last night, the heat was less than I expected.

I woke up sweating like I'd been in a sauna all night. I took my temperature, which was 36.8, so it wasn't that, must be the weather. It was forecast to be between 23C and 27C, methinks the former would be better as I'm not a hot-weather man.
 
Morning all. Been wide awake for ages so thought I might as well test etc.
7.2
I’ll meditate for a bit then gym. Then I gave the unenviable task of knuckling down and drafting my response to CICA questioning their decision.
That’s not going to be an easy thing to do but as I can’t seem to find a lawyer willing to help, needs must.
 
Like @ColinUK I’ve been awake for ages. 5.9 at 5.30 but laid tossing and turning since 4.30 and didn’t check my BGs. Back aching again, I didn’t use the hot water bottle yesterday. It was 27 degrees for Gawd’s sake, I’d have melted! Anyhoo, it’s currently placed in the small of my back and I’ve had painkillers even though I haven’t hadn’t any breakfast yet. 🙄Needs must.

Had a lovely visit with baby Rocco yesterday afternoon. He’s so tiny. He just slept all the way through it. Daughter looking very well and she said she feels great, feeding established after a tricky start but she’s persevered with it. We took her some treats, well, you can’t eat flowers. She was chuffed to bits, all her favourite things. We came home and sat in the garden in the shade, I read my book. Then at 5pm I started the tea, full Sunday roast! Madness, but we thoroughly enjoyed it. Don’t think I’ve ever eaten a roast dinner sitting under the dappled shade of a grape vine ! :rofl:

My plans are scuppered today, I was going to tackle the huge pile of ironing I’ve accrued but I don’t suppose that will happen. And yes, before you ask, Mr Eggy has offered but I’m OCD with laundry, I like to do it all, putting it in the washer, hanging it out ( I’m quite happy for him to bring it in) ironing it and putting it away. I know, I’m my own worst enemy.

Have a Happy Monday. Heavy rain and storms expected up here, let’s hope they’ve got it wrong, although it’s raining now and looks quite dark.

Good morning 5.7 today

Happy Monday 😎
 
Morning all. 3.4 so awake and treating. Not sure whats going on with levels atm. Probably the effects of last weeks walking, guesstimating carbs and the weather. Fingers crossed they settle soon as i'm either hypo or spiking.

Forecast is feeling like 35° today. Too hot for me so i shall be cleaning this morning then sitting in the shade reading. We're off to the cinema later to see It Ends With Us. At least there will be air conditioning in there.
 
Good morning all, 6.2 for me. I am feeling very relieved to be back in range for 94%, I had a few difficult weeks where I went down to low 80's and was overtreating lows. I also changed insulin to Lyumjev and think I have made friends with it now! I am going to London and prepared for a very hot evening.
Happy Monday to all.
