Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all,
5.7 this morning.
A bright day but a bit chilly atm.
Every blessing
Snowwy
 
Morning all , it's a 6.2 from me this morning so back in the 6's
 
Hi all. A normal, for me, 6.3. Frosty this morning and the water in the bird bath is solid. Hope the veggie plants are ok! Laundry day, make a ragu and a pan of soup then I’m looking forward to my weekly night out, at 8 o’clock. Control the lerts, and stay alive folks, you know it makes ( no) sense. 🙂
 
Morning all, 7.1 for me today :( . Been busier at work this week thank goodness but was asked to do some clinical summarising yesterday and after reading what it involved I declined to do it as way above what I should be doing and not confident that I would make mistakes, don’t think they will be happy with that. The lady who normally does it is isolating and used to be a nurse so don’t think it's right to ask a secretary to do it😳. Anyway off to Sainsbury’s in a minute and then off down to our caravan to remove the food from the fridge and drain down the water as that is going to be stale. We are only allowed on site for a very short time but needs must and want to check all is ok. The car needs a run as well.
Have a good day and @Gruers don't worry about other people’s numbers, we are all different, though also wish mine were lower. Can’t wait to see photos of baby MM 🙂🙂
 
Morning, A 5.4 dam you carbs why are you so tasty 🙄. will be better today I hope 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.9 here. Sunny outside but it looks cold, I'm venturing out to the deli and butchers later when it’s warmed up a bit, queuing outside in the cold is no fun, but better than in the pouring rain. I suppose we should be grateful for the drought.
 
6.2 this morning. 🙂

Beautiful clear blue sky - 2 deg centigrade outside. 😱

Stay safely alert and well (or whatever it is today!)

Morning

Well Bruce went on a wild goose chase around Brechin yesterday in search of a Hovis wholemeal medium loaf as Lidl didn’t have any, the mission was unsuccessful so had to settle for a Kingsmill Tasty Wholemeal, lets hope it doesn’t cause problems as having enough of those as it is 🙄 , on the plus side seen as he was in Farmfoods anyway I got him to pick up 2 big 300g jars of Nescafe Original for £9 so that should keep us going for a little while at least, think after things have settled and returned to some normality we may just switch to getting the majority of shopping in our own town

Anyways its a 5.5 for me this morning, after a few days of whacky unexpected and unexplainable readings I upped my basal half a unit last night, if it was just the injection of hormones and things start to settle then fair enough I'll just lower it should things settle down again, if not then at least I'm trying to get on top of it early

Had an unexpected Amazon delivery yesterday, Bruce had bought me a star print long sleeved top and got it delivered here for me, I'll get a pic after it's been washed as haven't even had a proper look at it myself lol

Anyways stay safe my lovelies
xx
 
Morning all it’s an 8.8 but it was 16.8 at 3am after I lost my temper with a stubborn midnight hypo. When will I learn?

Foot a bit better today after my tangle with a coat hanger so it’s walk time with my alert status set to very high

Hope you’re all doing ok.
 
Morning all, not been posting much but still here. 8.3 for me today. I've ordered a couple of face coverings just in case places insist on people wearing them. I've ordered from a friend who does custom Disney items.
 
6.0 for this morning and as it’s not that nippy out I’m heading out for a.... i think it’s called “J O G”
Not quite sure what it involves but I’m sure I’ll survive 🙂
 
Good morning 5.1 on a beautiful sunny day but the easterly wind is blowing a good un.🙂 Seas roaring like a Lion surfers will be in the water soon,🙄 laundry all done & dried and some chicken drumsticks cooking in the Halowave oven, easy when only using one hand.🙂 Bought a new ear temperature probe from Argos apparently I`m still alive (debatable).😱:D

Take care folks stay safe.
 
I have been getting up so late the last few days, and again today.
4.4 this morning.

I hope your foot continues to feel a bit better @Flower
Nice when a bit of Maths creeps into the thread @khskel

Off to the garden centre for some bedding plants, as my seeds did not like the way I treated them. First time I tried and I think I drowned them. Then making some face coverings this afternoon for both of us. I know that they are of little use but if we are required to wear them I would like to have some on hand, and it uses up some my stash of scraps.

Have a good day all.
 
I had a bit of a tricky day yesterday. I do a weekly video cooking session with my grandson and he wanted to learn how to make pasties. My family origins are in Devon, and in the 'old days' before Diabetes, I used to make them to a 'handed down' family recipe, and they were always very popular.
So my grandson wanted to take over the family tradition, and we both cooked pasties so I could show him what to do.

A great success for him, but for me it left me with some delicious but heavy carb pasties.
My husband gallantly came to the rescue though! I did make myself a very small one with no potato, and still kept total carb count for the day under control
- and managed to get a 5.7 this morning.
 
A rotund 6 this morning. Another day treading water waiting for life to re-start interspersed with cooking and trying to secure grocery deliveries. Asda will be delivering a shipping order tomorrow. I can’t recall ever having to think about food to this extent before the world stalled but not being able to go out at all certainly focusses the mind!

Have a good day one and all 🙂
