Group 7-day waking average?

5.5 this morning.

Which sets me up nicely for an IKEA run.... got to return a bunch of things that all cost less than £5 each but added together it makes sense to return them. Just. And it means I can buy more things!!
 
@Grannylorraine Bruce has had him about 7 years now I think and no hes never been outside in all that time, it's not safe, there are too many boy racers in my town both where I am and down on river street where Bruce is, plus back when he got him there was someone down his bit that had a dog that was mauling cats to death and the guy would just pick them up and dump them in a bin, the Feliway was changed to a full one just last week so I dont know why hes being such a pain but it's really starting to effect our lives, I was born into a house with a cat and dog and have had 4 cats through my time and not one of them was anywhere near half as bad as Bubbles :( xx
 
A 5.8 today. Quite pleased with my numbers this week.

it’s a sunny but cold morning in my corner of County Durham. Currently travelling to work via public transport but have managed to sneak a seat with a good 6 feet between me and the nearest person 😎

and it’s HBA1c results day today - fingers crossed.

Good morning friends on this wet & blustery start to the day. After tomorrow we can all relax over the weekend ~ that is apart from those workaholics!
Off to see my physiotherapist this afternoon for physio on my right knee & femur. The first session of six. That's all the NHS will allow:( Boo!

Confirmed. Another two poor sods reported as having Coronavirus on the Wirral ~ and a local school has been shut down.

So just now my meter chucked out a miserable but not unexpected 7.7. Ho hum! Thanks a bunch DF, I thought I'd got away with a slightly carby snack late last evening!
Take care folks, stay warm & as well as you can.

5.4 this morning. 🙂
Beautiful clear blue skies and bright sunshine at the moment. :D
Don't expect it'll last though. :(

Stay safe everyone.

Reading of 8.0 this morning caused minor panic until I saw last nights metformin tablet still on the table!
Either that or may be an infection starting, as I don't feel that great.
If it is the metformin then that shows that I am still quite dependant on it, which as I'm hoping to ditch it eventually isn't such good news.
Any way beautiful morning, sun is shining. We have a huge magnolia tree at the end of the garden which much be at least 40 years old, and it is looking magnificent. Time to go and enjoy the day.
 
Morning all my fellow bloodletters. A 6.4 on yet another gusty day, third day of this weather. Where’s spring? Corona virus has hit our largest school, first a teacher and now a pupil. It’s getting closer, the teacher’s son is a pupil at my grandson’s school! 😱
 
Morning All it's a 6.6 from me this morning
 
Have only just got up, been really tired, so busy at work and colleague been off for a week so that’s obviously why. 6 on the nose for me today so pleased with that. Had quote for treatment needed from periodontist - nearly £2500 (2 treatments under sedation) plus will need maintenance every three months at £250. Just dont think we can afford it as we have no way of replenishing what savings we have. I need bone grafts etc and don’t really know what the alternative is, none of this is available under the NHS. Am just in a state trying to process it all.
Anyway have a good day everyone x
 
Good morning . 5.3
 
Morning all it a 6.9 from me today
 
Good morning

5.9 for me this morning, feeling pretty stressed at the moment so going to try and have a relaxing day, fingers crossed I get that

Have a lovely day folks
Xx
 
Morning all and a sensor compressed 3.3, a rather more reasonable 4.7 on a blood test.

New synth arrived yesterday. Rather wonderful. I can retire my floppy drive equipped old faithful workhorse.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Hello from a very chuffed me. A 5.5 today, that’s two days in the fives this week. I’m not doing or eating anything different, so who knows? It’s actually not raining or blowing a hoolie, hooray! Big job today, washing all the birdie feeders and replenishing them. That’ll fill the day. Other than that I will mostly be trying to avoid catching Covid 19, still/again! Have a fab-u-lous Friday everyone. 🙂
