Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all,
5.6 for me today.
@Northerner I love your quick thinking images for House Specials, made me smile!
Anyhoo off for my 5k exercise in an hour, but just been reading a bit of 'the word' about fear being misplaced faith.
Watching the sparrows zooming on and off the bird baths reminds me of the passage in Matthew 6 which talks a bit about worry " Can you live a minute longer by worrying..." Seems not.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all ,
Well I'm a snap with @Snowwy again this morning with a 5.6 hope you all have a good day and stay safe

Morning

Well it's an unusual and unexplained 7.4 for me this morning, maybe due to the sudden injection of hormones yesterday but we'll see, maybe things are just changing again 🙄

Had a look for eliquid bottles yesterday, wouldn't mind the £25 just for bottles it's the £5 delivery after spending so much already that gets to me and at the moment neither is affordable with the essentials etc having to be ordered online so looks like it will be a while before I get back into the mixing game, good job there was a few clearance eliquids for £1.99 a bottle on a website I sometimes use, 180ml for £5.97, cant complain really although could make the same for cheaper

Bruce will be up this afternoon to drop shopping off, not much just bread, peanut butter, butter, hopefully kitchen roll so hopefully the few minutes I see him will help me smile at least once, felt so down for a good while now

Anyways have a safe day folks
xx
 
Good morning on this sunny Wednesday, but it’s cold again! A 7.3! I wish we had a “ what the heck” emoji! 4.3 before tea, only carbs were 4 small halves of new potatoes and afterwards 2 Carr’s water biscuits. 7 before bed, which again puzzled me, had a handful of nuts at 11. Who knows? Decided to clean out my cutlery drawer this morning, as you do, was a bit crumby. On emptying it I found two screws, a length of plastic tubing and a plastic medicine measuring cup. Where’s that “ what the heck” emoji? Hope you all have an alert day and save some lives. 😉 Oh and a toffee hammer!😱
 
6.5 for me this morning 🙂
Off to marvel at the queue length at the local garden centre!
Not going to buy anything because my favourite little plant nursery isn’t opening until Friday...
 
A concerning 8.5 this morning, and I can't think what caused it.
Been eating sensibly and exercising and feel generally OK.
It was a bit of a stress day yesterday with some family issues, but that happens form time to time and doesn't usually have that bad an effect.
Ah well, just carry on as usual, and do some more 2 hrs after eating tests today, and see how it goes.
 
A toffee hammer?! @eggyg 😳 Does it get much use?

Morning all.🙂 7.1 here.

Into the home stretch with my uni assignments. Can’t wait to get them over and done with. Then I’ll have lots of time to dedicate to...staying home!😛
 
Morning all it's an 8.0.

Managed to stand on a coat hanger with my other foot yesterday 😱 not a lovely flat, velvet coated hanger but one of those blighters with clips for skirts/trousers. I haven't broken the skin but it was right by all the metal from my previous fractures Oww! Where is the diabetes fairy? I'm sure her meddling powers are on the rise again!

Hope you get to the end of your assignments @Bloden, think of the fun times ahead! 🙂

Awesome HS work @MeeTooTeeTwo , shake your meter to make sure it's not stuck!

Right I'm off to hobble around the block muttering at people who run too close to me...
 
Good morning 4.8 on a lovely day slight breeze with a slight nip in it but ok for a bit more sunburn/tan.😎:D Got to go back to Lidl`s today couldn`t carry all that I wanted so left the food and carried the beer cans home.o_O:D

Another HS for @MeeTooTeeTwo congratulations.🙂

Congratulations on HS yesterday @Bloden.🙂

What you doing hanging hangers on the floor @Flower? please take care.🙂

Hope you have a better day @rebrascora & @Kaylz {{{HUGS}}}.

Better make a move to Lidl`s the green is starting to fill up with (humans)! so take folks stay safe.🙂

No it doesn’t. Mr Eggy brought it home from his mother’s last year when he was doing a sort out. It, for some reason, ended up in my cutlery drawer. He’s as big a hoarder as she is!
 
Good morning all🙂

I woke up with a 5.1, like @Robin slightly jelly baby fettled in the middle of the night (around 7.00, I think).. Straight line overnight, the only problem being it steadily sloped downwards, so too much Levemir. Another dose reduction tonight, then, so no worries. It's a bit like steering an oil tanker, this basal adjustment. Decisions taken in the evening only become evident much later.🙄

Busy day today., fixing the curtains. Some of the hooks have flipped out of the rings. So I will be getting out my trusty long handled footstool. Then it's fettling my Tesco order for tomorrow. They still haven't got any new legs. Bloody Covid😡

Speaking of Covid, I discovered yesterday that the decision to ease lockdown was taken without any discussion with SAGE, who thought before the weekend that lockdown had to continue. It's an entirely political decision.

I don't like this episode of Black Mirror.

Anyway, have a good day folks. Stay at home, stay safe, that's the scientific advice, which every UK government is taking - apart from England.
 
04:56 BS 6.3 🙂 The birdies are up & chirping away too!:D

Last night was chilly but, I don’t think it actually snowed, as forecast, as it would have been even colder. Yesterday was definitely a much better day & I had my wee gander down the lane & back, 750 steps. Was a bit winded & felt it in my legs but, it felt good to be out in the fresh air around 18:30 after dinner in the evening sunshine! :D😎

I have my asda shopping coming today 14:00 to 16:00 & reordered a new bread, to me, that I like: had some interesting substitutes in these times when that box needs to be ticked or I could end up with none at all! 🙄 My last substitute being ASDA Extra Special Super Seeded Bread & I ordered it this: subject, of course, if it’s available; ironic if I get a substitute? 🙄 I discovered I REALLY don’t like the taste of wholemeal bread: not even in sandwiches; DEFINITELY not toasted! Yuck! Green being sick emoji!

The opening round of golf will be starting today at 8am & I’ll play front 9 holes later in the day & finish the back 9 holes tomorrow. Hopefully I can make final starting on Saturday? Two hands together “Please” emoji!

A very early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
