Group 7-day waking average?

And it's a scooby doo 5.2 this amIMG_6979.PNG
 
05:57 BS. 7.3. Didn't sleep & a lot seems to have happened as my BS is behaving very strangely AGAIN!

Lasted a bit longer yesterday & slept around 16:40: last time I remember looking at my watch! Got up shortly before midnight & it was past that by the time I ate dinner: big breakfast! Waking BS 7.2 at 23:29. After dinner 02:03 8.3.

Ok so far! Then it got strange! Wanted to go on the trampoline rather than go for a walk as the sun wasn't up yet & wanted to see the before & after readings. 03:55 BS 9.2. A rise but, not too bad! Did 5mins on the trampoline: had to start again to build up stamina as, with one thing & another, haven't been on in weeks!

04:58 BS 9.6. Even more of a rise? When it always fell after exercise in the past. So, had usual breakfast dose of 6 units Novorapid & half an oatcake as not hungry yet.

Felt VERY hot, sweaty & a bit lightheaded so, tested at 05:57 BS 7.3. Already in an hour: heading for hypo territory so, ate another half oatcake. Still feel very hot & sweaty but, lightheadedness is receding!
 
Good morning . The sun is showing its face. I’m sitting right by the wide open patio doors listening to the birds.in amongst the chirps, cheeps, the blackbirds are quiet atm, I can hear chickens, magpies , gulls and crows .

I hope everyone in the SE is ok , I heard their is supposed to be an awful thunderstorm raging today , I do hope they’ve got the weather wrong for you today.

Yesterday my BGs were up up and away quite a few corrections needed, so I guessed something was brewing, though my BGs usually give me a bit more warning that I’m not well :D . Woke up this morning with a slight cold and feeling really tired. A nice 6.1 on meter and 5.7 Libre , the graph however told a much different story.

Take care everyone and have a great day.

Morning...slept in until just after 6am this morning...a lie in... how luxurious...swelteringly hot here already...woke to a 5.8
 
Well just ironed some shirts which is something I absolutely, positively loath doing. They always look worse when I have finished than they do before the ironing contraption hits them. When I come back permanently I need a longterm solution to this critical issue. I have found one but not worth doing for 6 weeks though. I need to get back to Shanghai.
Going into town to today to work out the parking arrangements at Newcastle station, I haven't a clue. Have a friend from Kuala Lumpur popping into Newcastle for the day tomorrow by train and we will meet for lunch and I want to take him "oot o the Toon" so I need take the car.
Terrified of bus lanes etc. and the dreaded big brother devices which ar literally everywhere in this city.
I could send you a basket full of ironing for you to practice on if you like., and if it was me, I would go by train
 
Good morning. 7.2 for me this lovely morning

That is my decision Carol after attempting to drive around there lastnight and look for parking facilities. There just aren't any. Stupid Newcastle Council.
The ironing may I pass on lol
