Group 7-day waking average?

Congrats to England, sorry but it escapes me, just glorified rounders - ducks flying missiles.

I watched the mens tennis final, what skill, what a match, could not call it. Congrats to both players, 5 hours..... They must have been exhausted.

Thanks @Northerner and @SueEK for your kind words
 
A better 6.7 for me. Didn’t munch last night so that makes all the difference. Awake early in prep for last day. I feel a song in my heart. “Zippidy do dah”. Have a good day all
 
07:12 BS 10.7. Oh dear! 😳 Forgot to check in the whole day yesterday & it was 8.7. Obviously under bolused for dinner last night! 😱 Ah well, Novorapid will soon take care of that. 🙄

Finished my weekend round of golf yesterday & dropped a lot of shots: much harder wind conditions; scored only -16 for 18 holes. Currently sitting at 85 but, some still haven’t finished & round ends at 07:45 with official result at 8am when I’ll get my finalist medal with my finishing number on it! :D😛

Now then, the real golf, as opposed to virtual, is wreaking havoc with my timings today! Public transport, buses & trains, are running a “The Open” timetable, as opposed to a Bank Holiday one, all week & it was a good thing I double checked online the time of buses today. My xrays appointment at the hospital is at 13:10 & my normal bus of 12:40 that gets there at 13:10 isn’t on & I have to get the 10:00 bus that gets there at 10:30 & the next one is too late at 13:40 getting there at 14:10. So, I have a wait of over 2.5 hours at the hospital before my appointment. No wonder I got one so quickly. I wonder how many people said they couldn’t make appointments for this week because of The Open? 😱🙄:confused:o_O

So, I’ll get my golf result & post the medal when I get it, physio & breakfast. Then, bring kindle with me & get the 10am bus for a LONG wait at the hospital.

Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
Morning folks!

7.3 for me this morning, is it because someone messed up my tea last night? or is it cause I'm worrying about the dentist in a few hours? who knows lol, don't even know why I'm worrying about the dentist, as far as I'm aware this one is only a filling whereas next weeks appointment is the 3 teeth out

Anyways dull but still warm here, think its meant to brighten up though fingers crossed

Hope you all have a lovely day! :D
xx
 
Checking in late
With 5.8

Two overweight blokes in a pub, one says to the other "Your round!"
The other one says, "So are you, you fat bast**d!"

Morning everyone, have a nice day!

Good morning, a great big 10.8 for me after one of the most erratic bg weekends I can remember 😱 2.3 all the way up to 20.2 and then yoyo-ing all weekend. Away from home and 'had' to eat white bread ,chips, drink alcohol- my diabetes likes dull and it didn't like what it got. Heading downwards now and back to normality I hope.

@mikeyB hope you managed to keep your bg in check through the cricket! Tennis on my ipad, cricket on the tv, erratic bg to start with o_O All perfectly timed to reach a finale together 😛
 
Can’t hang about: rush, rush, rush this morning! Catch up later when I can!😱

quite possibly just that! I've given up fretting about numbers like that though lol xx
 
Another 6: albeit at the top end, 6.9. @Hazel, can I borrow your metre, mine is obviously broken? Another glorious morning, after a day of indulgence yesterday I will mostly be working it off in the garden, in between lounging on my errr loungers! Have a marvellous Monday, especially @Carolg. Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life. 🙂

Hope all goes well for you last day as a wage slave @Carolg! 🙂 Happy retirement! 🙂
 
Good morning gang🙂

I woke up on 4.4 according to the reader, and 4.6 according to the phone app. That's after a middle of the night correction of a 2.2 with three JBs so pretty damned accurate correction if you ask me.😎 Anyway, getting out of bed and making a coffee, and having a vape has eased that up to 5.4, so a great start to the day.🙂

Amazing game of Cricket in the final yesterday. I won't go into details, because it's all over the news that England are world champions. Or rather, Ben Stokes is, who surely must be in line for a knighthood🙄

Absolute disaster last evening, just to ruin everything. I was adjusting my riser recliner chair to settle down after sticking a piece of cow in the oven, when there was a loud bang and the chair stopped working in seat extension mode. Dead as a doornail. Obviously some electrical event, but I couldn't see any problem, and nothing else stopped working. Anyway, I'm waiting for an engineer to call and restore my equanimity. Meanwhile, I'm using the sofa, which does recline, but its a struggle climbing off. Oh well, these things are sent to try us.:confused:

It's a beautiful sunny day here in the red rose county. My mobility scooter is being serviced today, and its a haircut day as well, so a bit busy. Have a great day folks, and commiserations if you are a New Zealander.🙂
