Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 8.7 on a sunny day but clouds looming from the west. Had a good day yesterday at Ageing Well Torbay, exchanged quite a few phone numbers of people who would be only to glad to talk with someone. Met a quite a few of T2`s so that kept a topic going 🙂.

Hope your day goes well and take a little time to reflect
 
Good morning all you special people🙂

I had a bit of a hypo in the night, but a few Dextrose tabs dragged me up to 6.3 when I finally emerged from the depths of slumberland. Currently 6.7, so the Levemir is right, last nights Humalog was wrong.🙄

Still, who cares, nobody’s perfect🙂

Today is all about the Manchester derby. Or, as it is now known, spot the British players. Or a more sophisticated game, spot the ones whose work visas will run out before the end of the season.:D

I`m smiling very loudly :D.
 
Morning all. Kicking off my 59th year with a 4.7 this morning. Have a good day!
 
Morning all.🙂 10.7 here (after last night’s curry and 2 correction doses overnight!).😛

Anyone else hate driving on country roads in the dark? Added about half an hour to my journey!😱:confused: Was worth it tho - N Wales was stunningly autumnal this weekend and the rain stayed away.:D
 
Well an 8 for me, how did that happen? Like you @Northerner I went to bed on a very reasonable 6.7. There wasn’t any more spam was there, coated in breadcrumbs/ batter? 😉 @Bloden I hate driving in the dark, any roads, and especially if the roads are wet and shiny! It is a thing apparently, my optician told me, night blindness, all to do with how your pupils react to the light, amongst other things. Roll on the longer days eh? Have a good day all, I’m off to the dentist and daughter number 1s to help her muck out ( no, not the horses, her house). 😱
 
Morning all. 12.4 for me today -off to drs after school drop off to get some novorapid! Hopefully will see single figures soon
 
Morning all, a 10.8 for me today. Went to a lovely Christmas craft fair yesterday. OH dropped me off (it's not his thing) and as the weather was nice i walked home. Was a lovely 7.5km walk home.
 
Good morning folks🙂

Woken by the alarm this morning. BG 5.3. With a downward arrow. This isn’t quite as good as it sounds, I had to take a corrective dose of insulin in the night because I woke for a wee with a score of 12.8, despite going to bed on 7.4. Must have been a late meal remnant sneakily hiding in the stomach. Only ever happens in the evening, that.

Isn’t diabetes fun? :D

Anyway, the international footie in Manchester yesterday ended with a win for City, so I expect Mourinho will be sacked soon.

Right, I’m off for a shave and shower. Hairdresser arriving at 10 for a cut and colour for Mrs B and a number 2 buzz cut for yours truly. (More aerodynamic)

Have a good day, everyone, and for those still earning a crust, it’s Monday, so time to start winding down for the weekend.🙂

Mmmmm....spam fritters! 😱 :D

When I was learning to drive I only remember ever having one lesson in the dark and it completely shook me. To make things worse, it was raining and all the lights and traffic lights were really confusing and blurry. Always been rather glad I never passed, I think I would have been a liability 😱 These days I dislike running in the dark, which is a problem as I like to go out running early, and 'early' at the moment means around 7 am when it is starting to get light. I have tried running with a head torch, but it's just not a pleasant experience for me :( A few years back I would happily go out and run by moonlight alone, but maybe it's an age thing now 🙄
 
Good morning 8.8 on a showery day, time to up the insulin slightly 🙂. Nearly time to put heating on :( and maybe wear long trousers 😱 outside, I`m off to Lidl today so we`ll see how the bare old legs react to the wind :D.

Whatever you are doing today make the most of it.
