Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning . It’s 5.1 this morning. I have not read any posts yet, I will catch up later.
 
Well morning all , no real shock here with my reading yet again I'm at 8.5 today still in the high range for me hope you all have a safe day
 
Morning all, a 6.7 after an inexplicable 8 something before bed, and that’s after a 7. 5 mile walk yesterday. Hmmm...I have been sneezing and feeling snotty. If I’ve got a cold I really know know how, as I haven’t been near anyone for two weeks! Not worried that it’s THE virus, apparently snotty noses aren’t involved ( I hope). Very, very windy and dull today. Just staying home. Hope everyone is as well as can be expected. 🙂
 
Morning

Bruce’s mum managed to bag me a pack each of dark chocolate and dark chocolate mint kit kats yesterday, not sure what I’m due her though as twice I asked and she wouldn’t tell me lol, Bruce was quite successful, only came down the road minus the kitchen wipes, he also didn’t buy cat food so he’ll need to go back up for Saturday for that as that’s when it’ll run out

Had to start my new sensor earlier than planned, applied it yesterday morning at about 10am and was going to let it settle until the old one ran out today but it was playing up yesterday so gave in and started the new one just before 8pm

Anyways 5.6 induced by digestive biscuits for me today

@eggyg Could it be a touch of hayfever possibly?
Xx
 
Good morning, thank you all for your concern and good wishes. Last night I erred on the side of caution and slightly reduced both basal and bolus and slightly raised my carb intake. I was desperately tired and managed to sleep almost immediately I hit the sack but woke up a few times when I changed position. Pain has increased, expected, and things are difficult but not impossible. I have to go to the shop this morning but it is pouring with rain and I am not sure if my mask (homemade) will survive the downpour. I was 15 his morrning.

I haven’t had hay fever before but certain things can set me off. Perfumes, dust, strong smells etc. I sneezed all day yesterday and my nose was constantly running but today, touch wood, all’s fine. Maybe I need to get my Mr Sheen out!
 
Morning all. 🙂 6.8 here.:D

I sneeze constantly with hay fever @eggyg. Sneeze after sneeze...you get the idea. Can you get a nasal spray? I use Beconase. It doesn’t effect my BGs. Poor you!
 
Morning all, 4.8 here, body still hasn’t caught up with the clock change.
OH has been sneezing his head off the past couple of days, @eggyg, and like you, hasn’t been anywhere. I think it’s tree pollen in his case.
 
Morning all, I think the tiredness and stress is creeping in a bit, a slightly higher than normal for me with a 9.4. I'll be glad when things get back to normal.
 
Morning all, 6.1 today 🙂

I’ve got a sports injury from trying to beat my 45 minute circuit around the block on crutches with a broken foot. The muscles holding my arms on and head upright are complaining a lot! I’ll go gently today.

I hope you’re managing as well as possible🙂
 
Morning all, rather grey and overcast today. Need to go out this morning, reluctantly, we were told at work yesterday that we are not allowed to use the kitchen to make drinks so need to buy a flask. Apparently The Range is open so will pop over there but would rather not, if I don’t I won’t have a hot drink for 7 hours :(. Interestingly one of the diabetic nurses is working there and we had a small chat yesterday, can’t say she is the friendliest I’ve come across but I was telling her about this forum. She asked what I thought as she had heard conflicting reports. I told her that I thought it was great and very supportive, that I had learnt so much and there is no nastiness and anything that is not supportive is dealt with quickly by the moderators, she was pleased to hear this. 6.5 for me today. Have a good day all x
 
6.1 same as yesterday. 🙂
Oh yes the tree pollen season is starting.
I never knew I was allergic to birch pollen until we moved here,
There's a whole row of them nearby. 😱

Stay safe and well.

Good morning all 🙂 4.7 for me today - up late as I stayed up very late last night to try and get logged in to ASDA to make some amendments to my order due on Monday. Still very busy and a lot of things 'out of stock' :( Also managed to register with Morrison's, but no delivery slots available :( The food stores must be making a packet 😱

Unfortunately Asda and Tesco are the only supermarkets that deliver to my town, nothing at Tesco as far up until the 22nd April and that's as far as it's going and Asda are only going up to the 9th April on my app with no slots available, I wish Iceland delivered here but nope, I text my dad last night who passes my town every morning for work and he said he wouldn't pop into town for stuff for me as he doesn't have time, it would take 10 minutes to do it and I'm honestly so angry that he isn't willing to help his own daughter out! xx
 
Good morning 7.1 on a cloudy sunny day,🙄 went to Lidl`s yesterday didn`t need much but gets me out for a decent walk. Got some unusual toilet rolls enriched with Shea Butter when I got home I didn`t know how to store them so they ended up in the fridge.o_O:D
