Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 7.1 after skimming along the 6 line since midnight. Woke for loo at 5, and it’s gone steadily up since then. Came down stairs and I’m in the 8s and rising. Long wait for breakfast methinks. Just checked phone, it’s now 6! WT blooming Nora? I’m like a yo-yo!

Going into town for some birthday bits and pieces, eldest daughter and her hubby, five days between them! I’m also meeting a friend for coffee and more than likely a cheese scone. Then to Tesco on the way home to get the things I can’t get in Aldi. It won’t be lamb! Hope everyone enjoyed their lamb dinners yesterday, we did, beans on toast tonight? 😉

Have a great day.
 
Morning All.

9.9. Rough few days level wise. Have a good day whatever everyone is doing.
 
Morning and a straight 7 for me and another nice level line overnight.
A quiet day yesterday watching 1883 ( prequel to Yellowstone) and was really good and then a trip for coffee and cake to Knutsford in afternoon.
BG wise continues to be more normal so happy enough and have a good week all.
 
Morning a bit of a high one from me today 8.2
to be expected after a pre bed snack and then not a proper nights sleep
 
Morning all. 6.6 today. Not much planned, i may get in the garden and pull some more dead tree off the wall.

@Homer The Alto Knights was good we thought. I like films based on true stories.

5.0 on the button .

Have my Hba1c in a couple of weeks and am now playing with Mysugr estimates to see how close it might or not be. As I have previously noted this isn't a very scientific method, simply adding 3mmols(sp?) to their estimate!

I have been given 3 Easter Eggs, that are waiting to be devoured, and so the chocolate fest nearly begins for me, but not quite yet.

Ok, finished my pedalling and now to get ready for work.

Wishing everyone a lovely Monday
 
Morning all, 6.5 here. Not too shabby after last nights lamb, roast parsnips and ratatouille followed by profiteroles. Mind you, apart from a bit of golden syrup in the chocolate sauce and the flour in the choux pastry, my profiteroles almost count as low carb!
 
Morning all. 7.5 here.

I forgot to switch back to Automated mode after my afternoon walk yesterday. I was in Manual mode for 6 hours, oops, but scored my best TIR for a few weeks LOL.

Meeting work’s tech guru this morning to sort out a blinking Smartboard - it won’t stop blinking, so I can’t use it. Had a similar problem with a different Smartboard at a different location last week. I think it’s me that’s on the blink!

Only three more weeks to the Easter break. Lots of milestones to get through before then, so I need to pull my finger out.

Happy Monday / Funday, folks.
 
Morning all! Hope you had a lovely weekend.

A pootling 6.3 for me today.

Happy Monday!
 
Morning

5.1 today after a carby evening, back still aching from yesterday’s clearing out of house, but finally think we are wining. Today is Bakeclub so got to make my bake, this week is pastry theme but just between us because I knew it was going to be a busy weekend I bought ready made pastry which is something I wouldn’t usually do as I like making pastry, but I knew I would be tired and achy today. Thankfully it is only achy muscles so will get better in a couple of days.

Belated congratulations to @PattiEvans and @Elenka_HM on yesterday’s HS.
 
A 6.3 for me today. 🙂

6.8 here this morning.
I spent all day yesterday injecting insulin to try to keep in range. I dread to think how many times I injected or how much insulin I used. I could total it up as I recorded it all, but I don't think I want to know. In the end I decided that if I was going to do battle with it, I might as well give it something to think about. So, whilst I was getting a few essential items in the village shop (milk and yoghurt), I saw they had a box of 2 cream and fruit scones. @Ditto. You are not the only one to suffer gluttony. I went home, made a cup of tea, injected lots of insulin and ate the first one, then injected a lot more insulin and ate the second, plus some Seville thick cut marmalade because there wasn't much jam in it and by that time my low carb diet was well out of the window. Needless to say I continued to inject more insulin for the rest of the night and I have already jabbed 2 correction doses this morning. Hope I am not coming down with something! Must get out for a long walk today to try to burn some of it off.

I love the term pootling. It gets used quite a lot in this house to describe lots of things (including me, by my teenager!)

4.9 today and no FOTF. Possibly lower because of the holiday celebratory glass(es) of white wine last night - have I mentioned in any of my last posts that I'm off work for the week !!!??

Off to get my hair cut this morning and got to drop daughter at the bus station later so she can get the coach back to university.

Still have plans for the blanket too.

Happy Monday!
 
Still not winning: 14 this morning. Went to bed with it hovering around 9, it went down to 5 at 12pm, but it jumped up to 14 at 6am. Ho hum. Will just have to do better …

As a matter of interest my ‘Time in Range’ is 70% and my average 14 day glucose summary is 9.0 - statistics, damn statistics!

Cold and grey this morning, but a pic of my grand-daughter Isla with some cherry blossom cheered me up.

5.6 for me on another sunless Berkshire morning.

Unfortunately we missed most of our eldest's futsal match yesterday as the live stream (joymo) went offline during the first half and never came back, but he was buzzing when he got home as they won 3-1 and he scored all their goals - his first futsal hat-trick.

I don't like Mondays, as someone once sang, as we usually have 3 WFH but there's only 2 today, so a little less tip-toeing around as it's the missing one that seems to have the most calls and meetings. Highlight of my day is a trip to the recycling centre over in Bracknell to get rid of 4 bags of garden waste, as there's no kerbside collection until Thursday.

Congratulations to @PattiEvans & @Elenka_HM on yesterday’s HSs.

Have a good start to the week, and roll on the weekend when the clocks go forward.
 
Morning all. It was a 5.3 for me on another grey day, but still mild so that's a bonus.

Have a great day folks and stay safe.
