Group 7-day waking average?

A Very Good Morning Everyone.

Very cold here last night. Brass Monkey weather for sure.
Had to wear my new, passion killers. Woolly bed socks lol.
I never thought that day would arrive but arrive it has, bed socks and me 🙄.
Getting old.

Accu-Chek say 5.5
At 5.23 am

Have a good day everyone stay warm.

Good morning everyone 10.7. Although not great I'm very happy with it because it was a smooth line during the night and I was purposely keeping it higher to avoid yesterday's mega double-hypo dip 🙂

Thank you Lin. I managed to have a lie in, went to have see my niece and her family and had a deep afternoon sleep which made me feel great 🙂

5.6 and I don't feel I can move today, my body is shattered and my cough kept me awake but I did have good numbers yesterday despite indulging. I can do nothing today and my daughters are helping so will rest and sleep most of the day, maybe watch some good films,
Happy Boxing Day everyone.

Good morning all.
Happy Boxing Day! I’ve lost my voice again and my cough has returned with gusto... a crappy 10.1 and back to temp basals for me :(. May use this as an excuse for why my Christmas Day numbers weren’t perfect!

I hope you're feeling better today.
 
Good morning my lovelies 🙂 bit of a better sleep last night but still not great :(
6.7 for me this morning, spent most of yesterday higher than I like however it was only low 8's so wasn't risking correcting, did notice there were a few bubbles at the plunger in my cartridge that I couldn't shift so changed that after tea
Hope nobody has the snow too bad and I hope you all have a lovely day!! :D xx
 
Morning all, a 9.2 for me today and I'm back in the office :(. Its gonna be quiet though as there are only 3 of my team due in this week out of a team of 24! I may go for a quick look to see if there is anything in the sales later.

Morning all. 5.2 for me, dropped my basal by a half last night. If only it was always that simple!
Just looked out, a sprinkling of snow here, just enough to make it look pretty without the need to go and shovel it off the drive.
 
Morning all. A 5.1 for me today. Off up to Ma and Pa's in Cumbria for the day shortly. Sister and 1 nephew will also be there. Hope the M6 isn't too bad...
 
Morning all. Not posted for a while due to phone expiring just before Christmas and not much time for larking about online. I hope you've all escaped relatively unscathed and Santa brought you some good stuff 🙂 Any way it was a 5.7 for me this morning.
I must say the libre has been an absolute godsend this festive period and this and the previous sensor have been pretty much spot on.
Have a really good day everyone.
 
Morning all

7.7 today - which potentially could have been lower first thing as I’ve only just tested as my amazing family gave me an awesome lie in!

I’m now listening to my mum reading to my little boy while still lying in bed debating how long I can get away with staying here!
 
A not very welcome 7.5 but to be expected after pie and cheesecake yesterday. In actual fact I eat less at Christmas than any other time.

Off to Morrison’s to stock up for a supper party I’m doing tomorrow. Making 3 hot dishes and lots of accompaniments for them to help themselves. Better get a gooey something or other for dessert but I won’t be having any 😛
 
Good morning all and 5.6 but getting very high numbers after eating, think the illness is affecting my liver so it's pumping extra glucose out, does that happen to you?
I will try and speak to my DSN but unlikely I will success.
Another resting day for me, wish we had snow but just rain. Enjoy your day.

I wonder why pigs are currently flying past my study window here in Newcastle?
I cannot think why they should be doing that. 🙄

House Special! 🙂

Good morning 🙂 I stayed under the duvet this morning, which may partly explain the 8.4 (the other part is probably the Belgian chocs I scoffed before bed 😱) 🙂

Oh ye of little faith! :D

I’m more a good cheese kind of girl Vince so I’ll be doing a splendid cheeseboard too 🙂

Morrisons have some good ones. I drooled over them yesterday but they had fruit in and I was not sure about that if it was ok or not so I bought 1 ton of Stilton lol.
Very difficult walking around there, all that wonderful festive food, I could have gone into a serious, manic depression and cried right there and then in the store :(
