Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 7.5 for me today following 2 fajitas and a bit of rice last night. Sorted out the food cupboards last night, lots of out of date things in the bin :( Bit of housework and then the obligatory nap and then a walk round the block, so exciting times. Overcast here today so maybe cleaning inside windows today and a bit of ironing.
Well done on your weekly average @Baz. @Michael12421 hope you have something to help and you have a better week. Well done o the HS @Bloden
Stay safe and well everyone x
 
Good morning. Raging UTI yesterday. What with the fall and the damage to my face and head and now this I really must have upset the Gods. 3.8 today.
You really are being battered. Well done for keeping the levels in check with the UTI
I hope that it settles.
 
4.4 for me today. 🙂
Captain Tom Moore is a wonderful inspiration to us all, God Bless him!!
But I can't help seeing a slight similarity to Young Mr Grace from AYBS. :D

Stay safe and well and stay at home.

3.8 this morning. Oops. Forgot the basal reduction for the G&T and wine.

Well done on the HS @Bloden.
Nice average @Baz.
On the way down @ColinUK in stressful circumstances

Another inside day today, so some more weaving.
 
6.0 today.
So it's the weekend! - back in the old days, that would have been a significant time with a lie in and 'foot off the pedal' for a couple of days. Now - I'm often hard pressed to remember what day it is at all.
 
Not long been up, had my biannual lie in! I was shattered yesterday, in bed at 9.30, up at 9.05 today! It’s cos I’m nearly 60 obviously! Anyhoo, talking of being 60, I got a spot on 6.0! Bet I don’t get that tomorrow. It’s the last day of my 50s today so I’m going to do something really exciting. Hmmm....give me a minute until I think of something. Still thinking.......😉

Good morning 5.4 on another dull day, walked to Lidl`s yesterday and didn`t have to queue up.🙂 Its seagull mating season in Paignton and nest building so its rather a noisy time at the moment, in more ways than one.😱:D

Congratulations on HS @Bloden.🙂

Still in the wars @Michael12421:( hope it quickly clears up for you.

What`s a weekend @Toucan?o_O

Heading in the right way @ColinUK.🙂

Take care folks stay safe.🙂
 
Morning all a 5.7 today.
Kitchen Cleaning and cupboard sorting for me

Hello everyone.- hope you are all doing well.

5.1 for today, my usual these days 5 hours sleep

Stay safe everyone
 
5.6 for me today, been up ages but not got around to posting as in a bad place today, but this is my worst reading for a week.

@Bloden congrats on the HS.

@ColinUK - hope the numbers continue to fall, but given everything you have been through recently, it is understandable that it is affecting you BG levels.

@Michael12421 - sorry to hear about your UTI, you seem to be having a rough time at the moment.

Sending you all my love.
 
Well here is my round up of fasting readings since I last posted them.....

4th Apr.... 4.8
5th Apr.... 8.0
6th Apr.... 4.6
7th Apr.... 7.1
8th Apr.... 8.1
9th Apr.... 5.4 Wow a 5! And only 0.2 off an HS!
10th Apr.. 6.6
11th Apr.. 3.3
12th Apr.. 7.2
13th Apr.. 3.8
14th Apr.. 7.4
15th Apr.. 4.3
16th Apr.. 5.7 Yes! Another 5!
17th Apr.. 4.4
18th Apr.. 4.6

Nothing desperately bad but still looks like I am using a blunderbuss rather than a rifle to hit the target. Taking some comfort from the last 4 readings showing a bit more consistency.

@ColinUK So very sorry to hear that you have lost your job as well as having been ill, especially so soon after moving house. I wish you lots of success in finding new employment soon and hopefully you are over the worst of the illness. Do you think it might have been C19? There may be some comfort in knowing that you have had it and you are in recovery.

@Michael12421 Sorry to read that you have more health challenges but relieved that you have antibiotics for the infection and hope it clears up quickly. Take care of yourself.

@Bloden Many congrats on your House Special.... I'm so jealous!

@Baz Congrats on your great weekly average.
 
Grannylorraine asked me the other day here to suggest a soap kinder on the skin if I could, I did message her as I wasn't sure I was comfortable posting my OCD struggles for all to see especially if newbies checked in as many (even my own family) think I'm just being stupid and am a freak but as we are all struggling I will share, to give an idea of how bad my OCD currently is, a 100g bar of soap is lasting me at most 3 days, just last week my hands were bright red, split, feeling like they were on fire that bad I wanted to cry, I treated myself to some Dove soap bars and now my hands are by far much better, no longer bright red, split or on fire, skin on wrists is still a bit pink but they are healing beautifully, Dove is 1/4 moisturising and it really does make a difference so if you can grab some and give it a go

Hi all,
Shockingly late on parade today, been wrestling with an outside garden table, did not want to come apart!
Anyway a 6.0 at 5:30 this morning...

Blessings Snowwy
 
Afternoon all. A very sad start to the day as when I got to the bus-stop before 7 there was a deceased woodpigeon on the road. No traffic and some xxxxer killed it! Unless it had a heart attack, I've heard of ducks that fall out of the sky! I had to scoop it up otherwise all the other cars would have gone over it and feathers everywhere, not very respectful. Poor thing.

7.9 @ 6.35am I was at Aldi crack of dawn, they let us ol' bids in at 7.30! :D Got Fuchsias and compost!

Lorraine I luvs the sticker idea but I'd never get a sticker! I'll be thinking about it though so thank you for your help xxoo
