Group 7-day waking average?

5.8 this morning.
It was quite windy during the night.
A neighboour had one of those party tent gazebo thingies in his garden
for his daughter's 21st. I was expecting it to take flight but it's still there. 😱:D

Are you swiping the correct arm at present? If so it must have been on for at least a week.

Strangely enough I am :D
 
I’ve been naughty or rather I am going to be naughty. Along with my weekly shop I have ordered a Cadbury’s twirl , I will enjoy 1 finger tonight, they say it’s 13 g carbs. I thought another word for soil 🙄 my lactose intolerance . Mind you I will probably find it is far too sweet.

Last week chatting with dad I said I fancy a treat, he said something along the lines , don’t it’s bad for you , I said it depends on what you think a treat is, he replied sweets, chocolate ( He’s the one who has 4 shortbread biscuits with every cuppa and often maltezers for brekkie) it shook him when I sad I seldom have any chocolate and I took out a few walnuts and washed them down with some ice cold sparkling water. He really doesn’t know me very well :D
 
Good morning everyone🙂

I woke on 7.2, after going to bed on 6.1. Funny drift up to 9ish in the middle of the night, though. Not to worry, that’s just a Levemir fiddle.🙄

Went to the Rovers yesterday. Won 2-0 against Millwall, but it should have been five. Pretty poor side, which probably accounts for the low attendance of away fans. It’s a long drive to watch rubbish like that.

At half time, I read some of The Testaments. Finished it last night. What a superb book. If you’ve been following Thue Handmaid’s Tale on TV, you don’t need to have read the the book to enjoy the new one. No spoilers, don’t want to spoil Northie’s enjoyment. Stunning.😎 It’s already being developed for TV.

So, on to Stephen King’s latest, The Institution. Stephen King is a genius storyteller, though he’ll never win any book awards. Too enjoyable.

Anyway, on health news, I’ve developed an interesting new symptom. When I go to bed, if I lie on my side, my legs automatically flex to around 90 degrees. Now, when that happens, my thigh muscles start fasciculating just underneath the skin. It’s a bit like mice running up and down under the skin. Bit sleep disturbing. It’s happening now as I type, sitting in the man cave. Fascinating.🙄

Fortunately, as I’ve just discovered, CBD oil (15%) turns it off, so that’ll be the last thing I’ll do before bed tonight.🙂

Have a good day folks, I will be watching cricket where England should beat Australia.🙂 And not twitching:D
 
Good morning 9.9 with clear blue skies 24.C at the moment.🙂 Latest edition of Carbs & Calorie Counter arrived yesterday from Amazon Smile,🙂 something to read on the balcony today.😎

Congratulations on HS @Flower.🙂

@Bloden how about Any Old Iron, should apply to both sexes.:D

Enjoy your day folks if you can, if not just enjoy life.🙂
 
Hello folks, very late up today, after a long day yesterday, so very pleased to report 5.1.

Yesterday a friend and I went to see the Falkirk Wheel. Took a trip on the cantilever wheel, did not do my spinning head and good, but the views over the Ochil hills was amazing. Then we went to see the movie Downton Abbey, pure magic, then stopped off for a meal on the way home. It was a real treat of a day.

Sounds lovely Hazel, I’m dying to know what Downton Abbey is like. I can’t go to the cinema due to not being able to sit down for that long, so will have to wait for it to come out on dvd, was it good? Sounds like a brilliant day all round, so glad you had a great time,
 
@SueEK thank you very much.
The movie was everything and more I hoped it would be. It was a joy.
My friend and I are going back to see it again, the clothes were amazing and Maggie Smith was outstanding

Oh brilliant and don’t you just lurve Maggie Smith, I’m a huge Downton fan but love all period dramas, fortunately we have 2 TVs at home so I have my period dramas and musicals and my husband has the football lol x

We also went last night.
It was a feel good film, predictable outcomes, and just a comfy good watch.
As you say amazing costumes and beautiful jewellery of the period.
A good evening.
 
Sorry I haven’t been posting. My night BG’s have been a nightmare since the consultant at the fracture clinic put me onto a tablet anti-coagulant whilst I’m immobilised because I was having such a problem with the injected one. But I’ve also had a nice week with Mark off work plus LOTs of sleeping. Dentist tomorrow and then back to my prison cell on Tuesday.
 
Good morning.
Went to bed on 6.4 with a slanted up arrow, probably that finger of twirl. I was right it was very sweet. Woke to 6.3 .
Hope you all have a good day day.
 
Morning Folks,

Reporting a reading of 9.9 this morning.

Off to the office just now busy week of catch up after Turkey trip.

May need a Turkey trip to get over this week 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂

Well had a nice wee wander to Lidl yesterday afternoon, stocked up on salami and smoked Bavarian ham, picked up scourers for my mum and thought I’d give their own brand Batts mayonnaise a go, basically the same nutrition information as Hellmanns but only £0.59 a jar! 😱

5.3 for me this morning and a very chilly morning so think I'll need my fleece top shortly

Have a nice day folks! 🙂
xx
