Group 7-day waking average?

5.3 this morning - so near and yet so far. 🙂
I was pleased most of the neighbours came out last night to give a 5 minute standing ovation to those heroes in the NHS. :D

Stay safe and well.

Morning all it’s a 5.6

High risk foot clinic cancelled -that’s fine- told to contact GP in an emergency. I’m immediately expecting my foot to go wrong- I didn’t realise what a mental/physical safety net it was having a regular clinic trying to save my leg . 😱

I hope everyone is doing as well as possible 🙂
 
Ashamed to have a 12.2 this morning. It was self-inflicted following the news of the death of an old friend in the UK. I can't of course go to the UK but his wife and sons do understand. In any event as I understand it numbers of people attending a funeral are severely restricted.

Sorry for your loss Michael. Perhaps someone who will attend his/hers funeral will WhatsApp video call to you during the service so you can be 'virtually' there?

Another beautiful morning here and unlike previous days no signs that we had a frost overnight. Shame to be confined to the house and garden (7 days, now), although my wife and I did manage to go out for a 20-minute walk yesterday evening, around deserted streets. Saw one cyclist and one other couple.

Summer house sorted yesterday, garage the day before, loft next. We seem to have more stuff in those three places than in the house proper. Might wash the car, too.

Back in the 4s with a 4.8 this morning.

Have a safe day, everyone.

Good morning on another sunny day,🙂 a very welcome HS although I was 4.8 at bedtime so had two Rich Tea biscuits as a slow acting carb.🙄

Sad news @Michael12420 enjoy your whisky in memory of your dear friend.

Stay safe my friends hope you can get some enjoyment out of the weather, take care.🙂
 
5.3 for me this morning.
Enjoyed the thank you to the NHS clapping session last night. Many people turned out which was good to see.
 
4.4 for me this morning which is my second in a row..... very unlike me for any consistency and a total fluke as I went to bed in double figures and upped my basal by one unit rather than take a correction of Fiasp that late.

I too enjoyed the community atmosphere of standing in the garden and applauding our key workers along with the neighbours. Feel like I would like to do it every night.

@Michael12421 So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. I hope you are able to enjoy your whiskey and reminisce about the good times you had together.
I am currently at 12.2 because I have comfort eaten all afternoon.... mostly managed to keep it to low carb stuff but enough to feed an elephant, so it all tots up eventually.....these are trying times and none of us are immune to having a wobble every now and then. Better to be a bit high occasionally as have those horrible lows you sometimes get.
 
Evening all. 6.9 @ 5.58am

Sorry for your loss Michael.
 
Good morning you lazy lot. It’s the weekend, rise and shine. A not too good 7.3 at 5 am been awake since 3. Lovely morning and lots of birds out, but supposed to be a bit cooler. Might attempt a walk today, I’m hoping the whole world and his wife have done enough exercise for the time being and I’ll not have to encounter people. That’s awful isn’t it. But unprecedented times and all that. Stay safe everyone. 🙂
 
Morning all 6.3 for me today.

Have a blessed day, Snowwy
 
Lovely bright day again here but with a chilly breeze. Hubby has finished work now thank goodness, just as I am about to go back!! A 5.8 for me today, first time in the 5’s in what seems like forever even though I had rubbish food yesterday, can’t work that one out 🙄 Have a good weekend everyone and of course stay safe x
 
Morning all, well I must say my readings this week have been all over the place but todays was 6.5 for me with a week average of 7.2, I've been as low as 4.6 and the highest it's been is a 12.6 this week so really has been on a rollercoaster of a ride lol
 
Morning folks

Downstairs has had her heating on the last few days and man I’ve been absolutely sweltering! My mum still puts ours on for an hour in the afternoon and it ends with me feeling sick and absolutely dripping, she still has a thing about opening a blooming window so its stuffy as anything and getting basically no fresh air (although I do have 1 of my bedroom windows clipped open a bit so I get some fresh air through there)

Grandad down for his tea last night, “you needing anything from Lidl’s tomorrow” mum’s going out to the chemist and going to Lidl while she’s out so no, your not supposed to be going out much anyway, “I need this and that” (that he can get 30 seconds in either direction of his house) “and I’m allowed out once a day” me – “are you still going for your paper” him – “yes” me – well that’s your once a day then, takes the mick out of me, him – “well I shouldn’t be coming here for tea, us – no you shouldn’t be but you wouldn’t eat properly if you were up there on your own, him – no I’d have ready meals though (he does have a fully functioning cooker and knows fine well how to use it but he’s too frigging lazy to) what am I supposed to do! Really stressing me out as later found out he’d been out and about around 4-5 times yesterday, even telling him again about the fines isn’t making a difference and he just laughs it off, stressed isn't the word!

Anyways 6.1 for me this morning, starting to think are we ever going to get back to normality I just want it to all be over and done with as my OCD is a million times worse than it has been in the 15 years I've suffered it, sorry

Xx
 
Morning all, 8.3 for me today and no work until Monday.
