Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 A surprising 8.7 for me this morning - maybe I should have corrected that 9.8 before bed 😱 This is on my Contour Next as my Libre sensor failed yesterday for no apparent reason :( It had been working fine for over 7 days, but then mid-afternoon I went to scan and it showed me....27.4 😱 😱 😱 I haven't been that high since I was in a hospital bed at diagnosis 😱 A blood test reassured me that I was actually 6.6! 🙂 🙄 Phone call to Abbott and replacement on its way 🙂 Never had one fail after been fine for so long - it wasn't loose or anything and had been spot on, so a complete mystery :confused:
 
Morning all,
Wow a pair of 4.6 's @Baz. and @MeeTooTeeTwo does that beat a royal flush? 🙂
For me a shade off an HS with a 5.3 today so very happy with that!
Yesterday I had a rare treat of a Mrs Snowwy home made lasagne (and she even calculated the carbs)
It was amazing!!!

On 'wood protection' detail today for my workshop, have to stay slim as otherwise I can't get down the sides with the paintbrush:D

Just had a note through the door about Friday's 'Stay at home VE Party' where if we stand outside in our front gardens we should see the Spitfire fly over QVH Hospital, wow!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning peeps. 😛 5.1 here.

I’ve been too busy to go to my knitting group’s Zoom sessions, but I’m going to check out ev1’s lockdown hairdos today - and show off my half-finished jumper!
 
Morning

Later on as decided to have breakfast and that and wait till I switched the laptop on to post, it's a 4.5 for me AFTER a glucose chew and that's with a digestive biscuit last night before bed, woke to a 4.2 and Libre has been reading about 1mmol lower but have a feeling I was below 4 as my head is absolutely pounding and feel worn out

Can't even sit and chill as my day will be spent crawling around my bedroom floor looking for the earing that was ripped out when changing my top last night 🙄 sorry I have no positivity at the moment

Stay safe and I hope everyone has a better/more fun filled day than what I have on the cards
xx

7.4 this morning but 6.8 last night, why does it rise over night? Disappointing !

i wouldn't say it has to be honest, given meter tolerances etc they could both be around the same and there really isn't much difference in the 2 anyway xx
 
Glad to hear the recyclers are universal in their casual tossing of the bins, im sure they just shot putt ours..anyway a much better 6.9 for me this morning.

Morning all it’s a 6.0.

Hypo in the night down to 3.0, I don't usually get a hypo hangover but have a drum troupe playing in my head right now 😱 A good walk will improve things - luckily that’s the only event in my diary!

Hope you’re all doing ok today🙂
 
Still stuck on 6.7 inspite of a good day on my 'get things back under control' project, - and I did a good exercise session.
Ah well, patience needed, as it usually takes a few days of good behaviour eating to get things back to a better level.
 
A non impressive 6.8. Doesn’t the DF know it’s my birthday today! 🙂

I might stay in for a change and go mad with a glass of something nice later on. Weather rather cool here at the moment. Have a safe day everyone.
 
08:53 BS 5.0. 🙂 MICH better than yesterday!:D My sinuses are still a bit wet waking up today but, no scratchy throat. Almost forgot to bung in midnight Levemir & had actually just switched off the bedside lamp & head down on the pillow when I remembered I’d switched off the alarm in irradiation as I was in the middle of reading something I was engrossed in & forgotten to inject. I’ve been working my way through, re reading in chronological order, my Dick Francis collection of thrillers, that I have on Kindle, currently on “Wild Horses”: nobody could write thrillers like he did; his son Felix is good too but, his dad was better! 😛😎 So, sat up in bed, had 20 units, straight back to bed & didn’t test.🙄

Had a nice phone chat with my brother & SIL yesterday & SIL is healing nicely after her surgery. Although they still need to go to the Health Centre’s Treatment room every 2 days to get her dressings changed. Always by appointment, washing hands before going & after getting back.🙂

It’s another really bright sunshiny day today & I’ve missed the birdie song as they were singing earlier around 5 am. The short little asthmatic cheeps of the chicks were MUCH less through the night last night & I suspect they might be ready to leave the nest soon?🙄

I need to do laundry today too & change the bedding: LOVE that fresh, clean, crisp feeling of newly changed bed sheets!😛 The days in Lockdown are starting to run into each other & I’m going a little stir crazy!o_O

I wish you all a Wonderful Day full of sunshine on the inside as well as the outside!😉😎:D
 
Happy Birthday @Amigo
