Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning

Feeling really down today, couldn’t get much shopping at all yesterday, still no toilet roll to be seen, neighbours being right PITA’s, downstairs mum and step dad must be away as the little twat has constantly been playing thumping what they call music but to me it’s just noise winding me up, upstairs floors must be made out of the same material that trampolines are cause it sounds like that’s what their using it as, sore head because of it, sore neck cause I cant sleep, and its all just going to get worse with the schools being off for the foreseeable, I REALLY cant cope at the moment

Anyways 5.7 for me this morning, unless I really dont believe a reading I never do a 2nd test as I have the added difficulty of which one do I then use to judge how much insulin to give myself

Happy mothers day to all the mums and grans here, my mum is very happy with her necklace, book and box of milk tray

Have a nice day folks, I'll be spending most of the afternoons napping throughout the week, unfortunately not at the weekends as Bruce wont give me room to sit comfortably awake so not risking it
Xx
 
Good morning 🙂 6.1 for me today 🙂

Sorry to hear about the neighbours @Kaylz :( Noisy neighbours are the absolute pits and very stressful :( Have you thought about earplugs to help you sleep at night? They can be very effective, at least at shutting out the noise, although you still get the impact of people banging around.
 
Good morning folks.
Rant alert.
I’ve just had a wonderful time not , trying to find a grocery delivery slot ,it seems all the greedy cods are not satisfied with stockpiling food and loo rolls the are now hoovering up all the delivery slots
I tried yesterday afternoon with no joy at all, so when I woke up around 4 I though I would have another go.
Ocado , nope
Sainsburys. Nope
Iceland . Nope
Waitrose. Nope
Tesco , though none available yesterday, Their was some for mid April this morning, so I grabbed a slot. Then cam the ordering , it was fine st first then the site slowed right down or perhaps it was my iPad, it was taking about 20 seconds between typing a letter for it to appear on screen , the same
when I clicked on anything, so I logged off then on again and all was fine
.
.
.
For a while 😡
I am now recovering from a pain in my temper and my iPad has had a reprieve from its threatened flying lessons:D

I’ve just remembered that I haven’t tested .
Well something went right , after all that umm.... fun
I have a nice flatfish annnd 5.3 🙂

I will catch up with posts later. I hope you all have a good day
 
(Hugs) @Kaylz I would hate that noise... its bad enough where I live with Southern railway doing landslip works and have been piledriving every day for weeks!
Bit concerned that yesterday about 20 massive steels appeared at the bottom of my garden ( on the railway side !) so I was wondering where they were starting next! Turns out they have found another landslip even closer and because the line has been closed since Feb, they thought they would do this too.
The joys of having a railway at the bottom of the garden although we do get to see lovely steam trains when they come past to link up with the Bluebell Railway for special events! (Grandson approved)
Oh, nearly forgot, 6.3 this morning after following the fashion of others and taking two readings.
Now waiting for on-line church to start at 10.00, fortunately God never slumbers nor sleeps... Psalm 121 for those who might find comfort.

Blessed Mothers Day, Snowwy
 
@Northerner I have tried them in the past as Bruce brought me some home from work, unfortunately they just don't work in these flats, they should be sound proofed more but they are that c**p you can hear the neighbours flicking a light or socket switch 🙄 believe me we constantly just sit tutting about all the noise as it really does get unbearable xx
 
Morning all it’s a 9.2 after another hypo last night. Something- I’m guessing fear & dread or the Diabetes Fairy- are turning me into Hypos-R-Us. I did see a picture of her loitering somewhere -hope she’s under lock& key !

It’s a beautiful sunny morning and I’ve got my trainer on, other foot in a cast ready to go for a hobbley walk and clear my head.

Hope you have a good day🙂
 
6.4 this morning, managed to get through another day, hubby managed to get some fresh meat and a bit of veg, so I will be ok for the week. Still really low, but at least not having to suffer what you are going through @Kaylz. Did eat more carbs than usual yesterday. Trying to limit news to once a dany and limiting time on social media. Going to try my Joe Wicks dvd that I bought 3 years ago and only did twice, I am hoping maybe I can get into the advanced stage if I discipline myself to do it 3 or 4 times per week. Then do Yoga a couple of times per week and the meditation did that came with the yoga set I bought a few weeks ago and have onky done once.

Daughter bought me a lovely bunch of flowers round yesterday, hubby answered the door then had a short chat, me from the living room her outside the front door.

Happy Mother's Day to all.
 
Morning all and a 6 on the dot for me.

Might risk a bit of gardening although it is a bit parky at the moment. Never mind got plenty of Bailey's in to splash in the coffee. Just a dash, can't stand the stuff on its own.

Have a safe day everyone.
 
After dinner last night (smoked haddock, sprouts and curly kale o_O , an unusual combination, but it was all we could get) I thought I'd have my occasional treat of a few squares of dark chocolate that were hiding behind the cheese in the fridge. Unfortunately, none there!! 😡 The glass of brandy that usually accompanies this treat, however, went down well.
Which was nice.

Oh and 4.1 on the clock this morning - which is also nice. :D
Happy Mother's Day to all mammies out there.
Stay safe and well.

Dez

Feel sorry for you mate just take it easy and look after yourself I've just gone through 2 weeks of hell and it's not nice
 
Morning all, had a Mothers Day lie in! The two youngest girls are popping round at 1 to leave cards and presents on the doorstep. It’s totally weird. Eldest gave me hers on Friday, it’s a long way to come for her to stand and look at me through the window! It’s a lovely sunny day so will try some more bird photography, so far I’ve got headless jackdaws, a blurry blue tit and a picture of a sparrows bum! Ah well it keeps me busy. Have a safe Sunday everyone. 🙂
 
I am totally embarassed at this mornings reading of 16. In my defence (to myself at any rate) I had a dreadful night. Very cold and continuous shivering despite a winter duvet and woolly pyjamas I had to put my dressing gown on and get back in bed. My one dog aka hot water bottle had left. This normally indicates a hypo as she is very astute about these happenings and so I over-attacked the carbs I keep at my bedside. When I finally got up I checked the overnight temperature and it was just 2 degrees! Easy on the food today though I am planning a chicken Korma for dinner at 6pm.
 
Morning all. Reporting a 4.7.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums here. It’s always a weird one for me. I spent years feeling a bit down on this day because I had no children after years of desperately trying. Now this is my second one as a bereaved parent but this year I have a baby wriggling around in my womb...bittersweet and I don’t quite know how to feel. I can’t even hug my own mum today as we are all distancing.

I've been thinking of you MM, I know you will be doing all you can to stay safe and well at this difficult time {{{HUGS}}}
 
Morning all, 8.2 for me today. No work today.
 
Good morning 6.3 on a fine but windy morning, can hear the roar of the sea and more white horses.🙂 Happy Mother & Grandmothers day, hope you are not too disappointed not being able to interact under the circumstances.

@KARNAK
Ted, you just enjoy watching those white horses and leave the mucking out for someone who doesn't collapse at the feet of passing nurses..... they have plenty of other work to do at the mo.

I`m sure I don`t know what you mean Barbara. :D

Sorry about the grief you are getting @Kaylz {{{HUGS}}}.

Nice rant @Ljc but true, hope you feel better now.🙂

Make the best of your time folks stay safe and remember Mums the word.🙂
 
Morning. Happy Mothersday to the Mums. Missing mine a lot today, 5 Mother’s Days without her now bless her. Happy memories though.

5.5 this morning on the finger after I played hunt the sensor which fell off in the night. It was its last night so can’t complain really. New one on this afternoon.

Haven a good day all
 
Are you all watching BBC 1 right now? We're in the news, well I am, fat and diabetic heh!

8.1 this morning, but I think it was incorrect.
