Group 7-day waking average?

7 exactly for me today, so improvement on yesterday, but I suspect that the two bags of crisps (yes I did eat two bags) and a magnum for my tea didn't help, but after sitting up A&E with hubby for most of the evening I was too tired to cook and did not have much in the way of cold food in the fridge to eat and to be honest I just didn't care last night, was just pleased that hubby's hand is just soft tissue damage and nothing worse, as it looked horrible, even the docs were surprised it was not worse. He won't be able to drive or work for a few days until the swelling goes down, but hey ho.

@stitch - I hope it goes well for you.
 
Good Morning Everyone.

More terracotta warriors, each one is modeled off a real life person at the time, 2,500 years ago. Qin Shi Huangdi insisted that every warrior was perfect, any artist who produced even one substandard image was immediately executed. When you stand in front of these life size models you become acutely aware you are looking into the face of a real person.



Have a great day all

8.1 this morning :(
 
Good morning all. 7.7 for me this morning. Coming down nicely. Seem to have broken my “munching” trend at night for now. Long may it continue.
 
Morning all, a more pleasant 7.8 for me today. My bloods started rising in the mornings again about oct/nov time when I found out that my job was at risk, now ive had my interview maybe my levels are coming down a bit. Could it have been a bit of stress causing my higher waking numbers? Only time will tell I suppose.
 
Good morning folks 🙂
Awful turn in the weather late afternoon yesterday and was raining pretty much all night! Bright this morning but still a tad chilly so the heating has been popped on for an hour
Anyways its a 5.9 for me this morning
Hope all you lovelies have a great day! :D xx
 
Morning all. 10.2 this morning. Rather a contrast to yesterday’s 4.1! Ate rather later than usual last night and reduced basal as I still had active insulin when I went to bed. No sensor, so I can’t see what happened, but whatever it was wasn’t great!

Still... the sun’s out and it’s a lovely morning to walk the dog.
 
Morning...in full cold mode today...snotty...the lot...woke to a 6.4...not bad in the circumstances...out for walk...then the best cold cure there is...a huge pot of home made chicken soup with some home made bread.
