Morning all. @Flower really hope you are feeling better and your bg’s settling, what a horrible time for you x @KARNAK good to see you posting but as you’ve been told don’t spend too much time on here. Lovely to see your name pop up again though. Take good care of yourself. Best wishes to you and Baz xxx
Off to golf club shortly to book next weeks tee - it’s snowing so today’s golf may be a white out unless there is a dramatic change in weather before 8am
Good morning folks. Went to bed on 6.1 and woke to 8.6 with a slanted up arrow 😱. Seems all was well till around 4 a m when when I started with the hill climbing.
6.2 for me on this grey morning, going out for my run. So slowly coming down again, hopefully I can hit the 5s before Christmas, have Christmas Day off to eat potatoes and pudding, then back on it Boxing Day.
5.8 for me this morning, was going to head out to the local shop for some things but I don't want to argue with any footwear so I'll just leave those things until I need to go out on Tuesday 🙄
Good morning, woke to 3.7. did small correction at 3.30 so obviously overdid things. Going out for Christmas dinner later, all paid for and looking forward to it.
Morning all, good to see you back Ted @KARNAK
Blimey @Flower hope you are ok now.
Enjoy you Christmas party and beige buffet @eggyg
A 7.8 for me today.
Morning all, 5.7 here. Rain lashing against the window kept me awake last night! Our house has very wide eaves, so it doesn’t often happen, must have been squally.
Was at the supermarket yesterday. I’d forgotten that at this time of year you’re more than likely to be accosted by a pimply Boy Scout,
or Girl Guide, who will attempt to manhandle your groceries and what-nots into carrier bags.
I do contribute to their worthy causes but say something like “It’s OK, you take a rest, I’ll do it myself.”
This time it was a little old lady, wearing a lop-sided Santa hat. 😱
Her response, “It’s all right dear, I’ve only just started”. And a great job she did!! 😛
Good morning 2.2😳 still only 3.8 now a bit more adjusting needed.🙄 Thankyou for all your kind wishes its great to be home and on a main frame computer although can`t see much out of right eye they did say it should improve soon, here's hoping.🙂 Had a visit from the Podiatrist at the hospital last week and was upgraded from a pink patient to a red patient you can tell by the colour of the appointment cards, red being the highest risk.😎 Has anyone heard from @Northerner? I see he was missing yesterday hope all is well Alan.
I see quite a few going out for dinner today, have a wonderful time.🙂
Very late this morning. Was up at 8.30 and considering our beige buffet last night I was a very respectable 6.8. We all had a good Christmas party, we’ve dubbed it our works Christmas do! Well our grandchildren are our work now! Full English devoured by them all. I’m now sitting down and in agony. I have pushed myself and paying for it but until I try I won’t know how much is too much. Have a sunny Sunday, we are.
5.9 this morning. A little sleep in was needed today. Can't really drag myself into life as yet and its just gone noon. About to have some sausage, bacon and eggs for lunch so that might pick me up a bit.
Good morning folks. 7.2 on the finger today.
Am off out with dad later , he’s having his ankles injected , he has them done three times a year now , it does help with the pain.
