Group 7-day waking average?

Morning everyone. I was right, the rain started at 2pm yesterday and it’s still raining! The sunshine was nice while it lasted. A very nice round 6 for me, must have got the bolus correct for my chippy tea last night , it’s nice to be able to have a treat every now and again. Have a terrific Thursday. 🙂
 
Good morning folks🙂

Not a good morning for me, mind. Woke on 4.2, which is the best my liver could do after a whole night in the red zone. Over exerted myself last evening putting on a duvet cover (I know that sounds pathetic, but bear with me), and fell asleep on the sofa. Oh well, never mind, another few brain cells down the plug.:confused:

Yesterday late morning was worse. No hot water. No shower or shave. The boiler is showing an error code, so I phoned the housing people. They said nobody could come out that day, and none today because they were all out on an away day. So no shower or shave today, either. They are coming tomorrow afternoon to fix it. It’s probably a ten minute job, but beyond my skill set. I did, of course, do the hard reboot and reset routine, which threw up the same error code. 🙄

One good thing is the chair engineer, who was due this afternoon, rang yesterday early evening to say he was in the area, and could call round then. So it needs a cheap replacement part, so that should be sorted pretty soon. In a perfect world, of course.

Have a good day, everyone, I’m off to join the great unwashed:D

Hey, I am reducing my meds, hoping to be off Lantus altogether in a couple of months, so not at all bothered
 
Well, I will post a 9.0 for this morning which is the best of a bad bunch recently that I didn't want to acknowledge here. I came down with symptoms of a UTI last night, so wonder if that is responsible for my recent high readings and feeling unwell or if it has resulted from the high readings of the past week. It is stubbornly refusing to come down into range even with the odd extra unit or two of NR here and there. Hopefully the anti Bs will help with both the infection and my BG. Feeling pretty washed out at the moment though.

Sorry you are under the weather @rebrascora and I’m sure your UTI will have had an effect on your bg’s. Hope you are feeling better soon
 
Hi folks, a bit late today 4.8.🙂 Silly me went hypo last night went down on the floor and set off the panic alarm,😳 automatically sets the Paramedics on call. Couldn`t get off the floor, intercom is going nuts managed to get up onto the bed and tested,1.7. Direct link to son, he`s on the phone to me can`t get to it, after a packet of JB`s and a few gluco tabs got back up to 3.1. Managed to get to the phone which was non stop ringing and spoke with son, no Paramedics yet 2.5 hours into problem.🙄 They never did turn up just rang me and asked if I needed help? a polite no was the response I died 2 hours ago.😎 Well back too today, I had two chips at lunch time 14.8😱 Back down to 2.8 at the moment big D is so much fun.:D

Congratulations @Robin.🙂

@rebrascora thinking of you, {{HUGS}}}.

Sleep tight my friends, speak with you in the morning,🙂
 
Good morning peeps - been up all night coughing and sneezing, feeling sorry for myself, so not surprised at 6.0
Have a great weekend

Ah Ted, so sorry to hear this :( You really do suffer some very harsh lows, I hope that you get some respite and decent numbers today and that you're not feeling too bad. Has your DSN got any advice? It seems you have very little hypo awareness to plunge so low :(
 
Morning early birds, 6.6 for this morning. But most importantly it’s FriYay...thank the butterflies because honestly there’d be a Kooky sized paddy if not. Looking forward to a visit to Manchester tomorrow, I feel a little Uniqlo shopping spree coming on :D
 
Good morning everyone. 17.4 with my cold getting worse. Just had a big correction and now going back to bed.
 
06:10 BS 5.3. Ah! Much better! :D

Awww! Uhhhh! :( & tears streaming down my face emoji! It was utterly, brutally heartbreaking to see Rory come apart yesterday during his first round at The Open! :( An 8 on the par 4 first hole, followed by a +1 bogey, then some Birdies to give us hope, but, then +2 double bogey on 16 & then even worse, a +3 triple bogey at the last 18th hole: an awful, SO awful he might not make the cut today, round of 79 +8 over par! 😱:(

Then, just as he was finishing, Tiger started. He didn’t have a good day either. He wasn’t playing like his usual self: hitting left & putting very quickly; maybe his injury made him stiff in the cold & wet conditions that were constantly changing? He only did 1 better than Rory with a round of 78 +7 over par so, may also not make the cut! 😱:(

It was a disappointing day of real golf for me! On the other hand I think I’ve qualified for a shorter 9 hole tournament, 2 rounds over 3 days, of virtual golf: still sitting at number 2 with -9 for 9 holes when round finishes at 07:45 & results at 8am. :D I surprised myself! 😛

Will still be watching The Open today as Irish man Shane Lowry is only 1 shot off the lead: if a Northern Irish man can’t win it; an Irish man will do! 🙂

Good morning to you all! 😉 The golf starts at 06:30.

The course looked fantastic & the spectacular coastline was really showcased globally to a worldwide audience, making me SO proud to live here! 😛:D😎🙂
 
Morning all.
5.8 today

Man goes to the doctor, with a strawberry growing on top of his head.
The doctor says, "I'll give you some cream to put on that."
