Group 7-day waking average?

Good luck, @Northerner! 🙂 Fingers crossed emoji!

Got up around 2:30am & couldn’t get back to sleep! Slowed cooked lamb casserole, left to cook overnight, was just about cooked so, had some! Forgot to test before but, after 90 mins. was BS 10.5. Ok ish & just a little high!🙄

Had dialled back midnight & midday Levemir by 2 units each yesterday & after breakfast was BS 9.0. But, 90 mins after lunch was 11.5 & after 4 hours had risen to over 15. So, had another 2 units of Levemir. So stuck with the 12 units of Levmir at midnight, just past, & stick with the 36 units at midday! Novorapid doses were at 22 units yesterday & * I had 22 units for the casserole. I think I will stick with that today, depending on testing.🙄

Finally had some energy to do my physio exercises which I kept putting off, TBH, I can’t remember for how long since I lacked the energy to do them! Crumbs! Hadn’t realised how much I got used to feeling so off that I now realise when I’m feeling better! Physio eercises hurt a LOT but, it was a good hurt & now I’m lying in bed completely ache free making me realise I’d gotten used to the increasing ache in my arm when I hadn’t done the exercises! 😱🙄o_O🙂

Feeling very relaxed now & might even go back to sleep! 🙂

Wishing you all bright sunshine on the inside!:D😎

Edited to add:-*
 
Good morning all you Friday finger prickers/ Freestylers. A 7.9 this morning! Oops! Cottage pie for tea + malt loaf before bed = high BGs. They never taught me that equation in O level maths. Going to erect my ironing board very shortly as I have been very remiss in my housewifely duties this past week, maybe something to do with Christmas prep, nurse/ GP/ optician appointments/ babysitting but I don’t seem to have been at home a lot. How I ever managed to go to work as well is beyond me! Have a fantastic “ four sleeps before Christmas” day. 🙂

Good luck
 
Morning all, 6.4 here, another late night, this time collecting daughter off the bus in the next town, after her firms office party. (For some unfathomable reason, Stagecoach have a two hour gap in buses to our village, just when you’d need them after a night out in Oxford!) Mind you, I can have a nap sometime, she has to go into work this morning!
Good luck today, @Northerner.

Good luck today with your appointments
 
Good morning all. 7.2 for me this morning. Awake a lot of the night after First “chair sleep” for a while. Hope the next 4 sleeps are better sleeps.
 
A baffling 3.8 for me, checked it twice. Still better than 13.8, so I’m not grumbling. Two hours after breakfast it was 6.6. One day I’ll get the hang of this.
 
Morning all, was at 9.5 this morning. No work now til Monday. Off to London for the annual west country chriChris shindig. The Skimmity hitchers followed by The Wurzels!
 
Good morning 7.6 at 07:00, down to 5.4 now 🙂. Had my Eye Screening results through all clear, last year background Retinopathy in left eye 🙂.

Best of luck for today @Northerner.

Keep safe everyone.
 
Good morning last minute shoppers🙂

I woke up on 6.2, which is neat and tidy. Took me a while to start moving after a really good day yesterday. Oh well, never mind. Ups and downs.

My ridiculous new phone is now fully operational, talking to my watch, which is annoying me because it won’t accept the Spike app for Miaomiao. So anybody with any experience of switching off the no certification lock on an Apple Watch, let me know. The watch, of course, has far more computing power than the Voyager 2 probe which has now left the solar system and is hurtling into interstellar space. And still sending signals. Amazing what you can do with a bit of Meccano and a ZX81.🙂

Anyway, good luck Northie for the eye appointment, and well done Karnak. That’s the diabetes sorted, just get everything else right in the Whack-a-Mole game of life.🙄

Have a good day, everyone, watch out for the Diabetes Fairy while Northie is out of the house:D

She’s hovering. Somehow I’ve managed to go from 3.8 to 8.2 on one slice of rye and some peanut butter. Exact same breakfast raised me 1 point yesterday. HOW? It’s all so confusing.

Whoa Carol, that’s amazing, that’s lower than mine today! But maybe you didn’t have 2 slices of sticky, gooey, delicious, stick in your back teeth fruit malt loaf before bed! 😉
