Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 5.4 here. Being a numpty, I injected 5 units of basal last night, which is my daytime dose, instead of 3.5. luckily the second helping of custard tart mopped it up. ( I had some whole milk, which I buy to froth in my coffees, left over because my local supermarket has stopped selling pint cartons of milk, and I have to buy 2pt ones. That’s a good enough excuse for making custard tart).

That’s another thing I have never made from scratch. We just had some from Sainsbury’s yesterday with absolutely no excuse. Do you think Yurt Lush would complain if you snuck some homemade ones along to our next meet up!!

Morning all it’s a 7.7 today.

Having a day off from walking today as my broken foot can’t take anymore! 😱 Polishing and vacuuming instead from the Lockdown lucky dip.

Have the best Sunday you can 🙂

I hope that you can polish and vacuum with your foot up.
I was thinking I won’t want to take you on at arm wrestling with all this walking you are diong on your crutches. Rest up and enjoy the sun.

Morning all. 5.8. I had a long lie today, up for the loo at 6, got back into bed and two minutes later it was 8.20! For the first time in what seems ages it isn’t a nice sunny morning, very cloudy and Skiddaw has completely disappeared from sight! It’s the grand opening of the door today, after 6 days of stripping, sanding, filling, undercoating, sanding, filling, undercoating and finally the high shine white gloss, the furniture goes back on today. No more hoolies blowing through my hall. I might wear a hat for the unveiling! Have a safe Sunday. 🙂

Here’s hoping there has been no pesky insect that chose to land on the door before it dried.
I remember an assembly when the deputy head did an excellent description of painting a door. Her had the whole school spell bound. Hard to believe but it was the way that he said it.
 
... and finally (sorry @Robin and @Michael12421 , I know I shouldn’t start with and)

4.1 and heading down this morning. After a week of temporary basal rate changes I think I need to switch to a new profile and accept that I need to be in summer mode.

A deadline for some sewing looms so it is a day (or what is left of it now. A late start) in the attic in spite of the sun. It will be coffee breaks in the sun (regularly).
 
Good morning gang🙂

Well, I woke up the second time on 6.2. The first time I woke up (at 5.30) I was 2.7, so the 6.2 includes a guest appearance by Jelly Babies. No explanation, but possibly the unusual late evening exertion of fitting a fresh duvet cover. Doesn’t bother me, whatever.

It’s good fun fitting a duvet cover one handed, it needs new techniques (the other hand plays a support role with an elbow crutch). Takes twice as long, mind.:D

Serves me right for allowing the domestic staff a day off.

Anyway, it’s Sunday today, a day of rest. Just like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...isn’t lockdown exciting?🙄

By the way, I use single cream when I make custard tart. It makes a huge difference, far better than the thin tasting shop bought.

Stay safe, folks.🙂

We were more bothered by the blossom blowing off our cherry tree! Although the door was off and on tins of beans on the dining table the blossom was blowing through the house. We also had a jackdaw down the chimney the other day, a regular occurrence, and we were worried about finding a bird stuck to the door! All looks well and no tackiness remains! 🙂
 
Hi all, was at 8.2 this morning. Day off work and I can't be bothered to do anything. Grass really needs cutting, but I really don't want to do it. Disney+ binge watching it is then.
 
Hi All.
Good to see everyone seems pretty well and have been busy.

Woke to a 6.3.
Just made some flapjack nice and tasty and get the pieces the right size (and practice insulin dose) they don’t spike levels.

Glad to hear you just plan a rest day.
 
Well, I was with @Amigo on the 5.9 step this morning..... that is two 5s in a row for me! Yippee
 
Morning all. An unprecedented 5 for me! This was at 5am. Didn’t inject any insulin, basal or bolus as was too early. Did BGs again at 5.50 as thought it was a fluke, 5.5! Must admit very surprised as I’m a bit ( make that very)
stressed as just found out that my spleen less condition has been “ upgraded”, and not in a good way, to the shielding list. Now to find another new normal. :( Stay safe everyone.

Sorry to shout, but scoring a 5.2 this morning may be the only bit of excitement I'll have all day.😱
Another sunny day but still cold at the moment.

Stay safe and well.

good morning all , 6.8 for me this morning bit high today then it has been the past few days
 
Morning folks

Well 2 orders put in yesterday, 1 at Superdrug for some Dove soap while the 4 pack for £2 promotion is still on and the other at Savers for cotton wool pads, shower gel, spec wipes and some Vaseline hand cream, why cant everything just be available in one place! 🙄 Also got a text from a mate saying they were sending me 2 phone covers, nothing special but I am needing a new one as the colour is coming off my current one and I know its to protect the charger port but the piece that goes into it has never stayed as it should so just annoys me popping out all the time!

Anyways 4.8 for me this morning
Xx
