Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 7.6 here. Struggling with eating heavy hotel meals late, and blood glucose continuing to rise after I've gone to bed. Ah well, it's a nice problem to have to solve, and only temporary.
 
Morning all.🙂 7.5 here.😛

Last day in rural Spanish paradise today with grey skies and rain forecast - it’s still beautful tho.:D Lots to do!
 
Hi all. 5.5 after flying blind for a few days. I was up at 4.30am tho, so probably a low-ball.

Coming on to Spring here - hint of blossom in the air, sunny with a mild breeze, magpies in cyclist-dive-bombing training in prep for nesting season.
 
9.6 this morning but munchies last night. Had been lightheaded when gardening but think heat,stooping up and down and not enough to drink. Hope for a good day and plan to pick last of rasps and move raspberry bushes but will have to hoe out weeds first. Slow and steady does it.
 
Snakes Alive 5.5. Early finish at work....hmmmm....beer O'Clock. Have a good weekend kids!
 
Hi Guys & Girls, afraid a 9.7 for me this morning. Got a bit stressed after yesterdays debacle at the hospital. Got there after 1.5 hours on the road, two buses and all of Paignton and Torquay plus every student in Devon on the same bus. I arrived eventually at reception and got in queue, 20 minutes later got seen by receptionist gave her my appointment letter, after a lot of panicking and 3 other people trawling over different computers and numerous phone calls, I was told the appointment was cancelled on the 13 August. No contact to let me know just sorry we will make you another appointment, fuming or what. No point getting Irate with staff as I do not think It`s their fault, a new appointment was made and so I left and headed home, about half a mile to my nearest bus stop. Guess what? the heavens opened up, me in my T shirt shorts and walking stick, drowned rat comes to mind. Managed to get close to home and called into my local club to calm down, checked my BGL 14.8. It is now 20:25 the following day and it has only just come down to 7.8. hopefully it will be a lot lower in the morning. Thank you to all who wished me luck at the hospital and hope you can transfer that to my next appointment, bless you all.

Geebus what a fiasco! Better luck next time & as a general thing I would make a written complaint to whoever is most appropriate.
 
6.0 today, trundling along.
 
Morning all, it was a 6.0 for me this morning bit higher than my usual, but that’s what you get for going to bed with a Kitkat and a small glass of milk..😱

Hope you have a better day today...!
 
Morning all 6.4 for me

More yew to trim until rain stops play.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning everyone🙂

I’m a bit like Robin - woke with 7.2 after a line trundling around 6.

That’s after the unusual event last evening of a hypo after eating, so the food hadn’t hit the system in time. Oh, well, a very brief spike up to around 10 settled back to around 7.

Must have been my adventures at the football yesterday afternoon. It’s all the excitement of shouting at the ref to go to Specsavers:D

Next time I’ll accuse the Ref of being an agent of DF😎
 
Good morning 6.5 today.

@KARNAK does your hospital do text reminders for appointments - if you use a mobile? I've found that system more reliable to know what appointments have been changed. Best of luck for next time.
