Group 7-day waking average?

11:51 BS 10.7. It’s to be expected really being so late again! Sighing emoji! Last night was stormy again & shoulder was aching again but, kept the aching until control so, no nerve problems & I’m still grateful for that! It was past 04:30 before I fell asleep!😱

Midday alarm has just gone off so, must crack onto taking my meds & eating breakfast/lunch!🙄

Have a wonderful day everyone! * 🙂

Edited to add:-*🙂 Unforgivable!😱 HOW could I have forgotten that? What could I say, meds & breakfast were calling!🙄😉

5.3 for me this morning, oh so close to that HS. I've never had one and feel an odd competition to get there 😛

Oh, I know what that feels like!🙄 I was trying to get that elusive House Special all last year! Was SO happy when I finally got one!:D Keep working away at it & you'll get there!😉 Your numbers have improved a lot!🙂 Thumbs up emoji!
 
Curses. Got a wet bum.:confused:

Parked the mobility chariot oustide the Co-op, and there was a rain shower. It’s the cat’s fault. Needed some cat litter. The rain had passed over when I went to the pharmacy to get my insulins.

Still, at least it was only rain. Don’t need the Huggies just yet...:D
 
Good luck Northener

Good morning . Had two lovely supprises , opened my eyes just after 7 to see it was light and that I had had five hours sleep which is most unusual for me .
I hope my new sensor is a gud un,

Have a good day
 
Morning all, 6.6 here. Yay, the days are getting longer, I just managed to do my finger prick test without putting the light on.
Good luck today, @Northerner.
Thank you 🙂 Yes, the hours of daylight are rapidly expanding! 🙂 Hurrah! 🙂 No doubt it will be especially bright and sunny after I leave the hospital, after having had the drops in! 😱 And I have no idea where my sunglasses are 😱 :(
 
8.9 for me. Mmm, don’t know why so high. Nurse today for review, but first ...big walk this morning.
 
Good morning 🙂 a very pleasing 5.2 HS on my meter today 🙂

Best Wishes for a good eye appointment @Northerner and good luck with your big walk @Carolg 🙂

Preparing to launch to hospital .... deep breath, here goes! 😱
Great to start the day with an HS @Flower! Congratulations! 🙂 I suspect my journey to the hospital and back will be less fraught than yours, I hope all goes well and without mishap 🙂 Remember to have a witty riposte to any comments about your foot! 😱 🙂
 
Morning all, sorry I missed yesterday’s drill but had an early start. A very surprising 6.5 today as had a very stressful day yesterday. Went to the Lakes for a walk around Rydal Water and it’s caves via the Coffin Route ( it really is called that). Lovely morning and nice picnic overlooking the lake. On to Windermere for a spa afternoon, massage and facial and a swim. Got back to the car to a parking ticket, it had blown off the dashboard! Set off home at dusk, A591 Windermere to Keswick road, very busy and fast. Raining to boot. Suddenly saw movement in the middle of the road and the car coming towards us slowed down, it was a sheep! It then proceeded to run straight into our car! Poor thing died instantly thank goodness but the car doesn’t look pretty. Hopefully just cosmetic. We were both shaken up but we’re ok. Pulled the sheep off the road and tried to phone the police to report it. No signal of course, drove into Keswick where it took us half an hour to get through to the police. Incident reported. Now for all the hassle of the insurance, luckily we get a courtesy car. Have a good day everyone and good luck to all with appointments.
 
Good morning everyone🙂

Woke on 5.8 after a nice flat line overnight, so it looks we’re all adapting nicely to spring.

It’s horrible when that happens, Eggy. Sheep are pretty stupid. On Mull, they used to amble along the Main Street through the village, looking for freebies in the gardens. They seemed quite adapted to traffic, which is just as well with the logging lorries trundling through. If a sheep went under one of those, you’d have ready minced mutton for a shepherds pie. Lucky it wasn’t a deer, an adult red deer can wreck a car. So can the occasional Highland Coo on the back roads. Hope the courtesy car is up to Mr Eggy standard.:confused:

This cat we’re looking after seems to have made herself right at home. I was making a stir fry, yesterday, so I prepped everything - chopped up the cold cooked chicken, the veg, opened the tin of bamboo shoots so everything was to hand when I started. Went and had a sit down for a rest. Got up to go to the loo, and noticed Bella sitting on a bar stool nicking bits of cooked chicken like it was a bloody Tapas Bar :D

Fortunately, there was enough for everyone, so no big deal.🙄

Have a good day, everyone, make the most of the climate change, and I hope all the hospitaleers get the results they hope for🙂
