Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all and 6.2 for me.

A spot of gardening today now that the tip is open and I can get rid of my previous efforts at some stage. Must wash the car as well. Birds have been using it for target practice.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning

Well Bruce popped up with some shopping yesterday, back to Hovis as of today, still no antibacterial wipes and sure there was more issing just cant remember what lol

Anyways a 5.7 for me this morning, BG still rising a bit through the day so upped basal another half unit to 16 last night so we'll give that a few days and hopefully have an improvement

Stay safe and well folks
xx
 
Morning all. 😛 6.4 here.

Glad you slept well @Lanny. 🙂

We’re waiting for the queue to go down @khskel before dumping our mountain of garden waste...if the tip’s open...can’t remember what hubby said...strange, I usually hang on his every word (not),🙄😛
 
6.7 this morning.
Going for a lovely long walk in the misty sunshine.
 
Morning all and a better 6,3, very hot and sunny here today, will the hordes arrive on Brighton beach, I shall avoid that area?
Trying to work out why the birds are not feeding from our fat ball feeder, they used to like it last year, we removed it as it was rusty and have just bought another, it’s in the same place, any ideas anyone?
@Lanny glad you are feeling a touch better and getting plenty of sleep.
@Gruers well done for your reading in the 5s, they are rather elusive to me lol
@Baz. i also have put a couple of pounds on, it will soon go
@Michael12421 what I wouldn’t give for a spaghetti carbonara, my favourite meal (once a year now)
Enjoy the sunshine if you have it and stay a lert. My husband, when in the army, always used to say ‘join the army, stay alert, the army needs lerts’ so when the new slogan came out it did make me laugh.
Have a good day x

Are you using the same brand of fatballs?I bought some different ones (turned out to be poorer quality, more sawdust in them, I suspect) and the birds turned their noses (beaks?) up at it and left it alone.
( And before we get a torrent of 'you shouldnt be feeding birds in the spring/summer' the RSPB recommend feeding all year round, to help the adults survive the busy chick feeding season, that being better than not feeding them in case some inexperienced bird parents try and feed their young inappropriate 'fast food')
 
A 6.4 after a carby Saturday. Must do better today.
In lots of joint pain at the moment so getting dressed without falling over might have to be my exercise for the day! :(

Have a good Sunday from Cell Block Amigo!

Thanks for your reply. Yes they are the same brand, but confusing really though there are a number of new cats around but they don’t often come into the garden because of our dog. My husband made a bird table which we put seed on but that tends to attract the pigeons rather than the smaller birds, am wondering if that is putting them off x

Our birds tend to come and go with the seasons, the finches (gold, green and chaff) are nowhere to be seen at the moment, but the garden is suddenly full of tits (blue, great and coal) The pigeons tend to wait under the feeders to hoover up spillage, but there's a clever rook that’s learned how to swing on the feeders and spill seed onto the ground which it then flies down to retrieve.
 
Good day folks 3.8 went to bed on a 3.8 four JB`s and two Rich Tea biscuits will sort that out, obviously not reduce Basal today.🙂 Went to Lidl`s today to get the essentials (hic)😳 and a dear elderly lady collapsed the staff were brilliant no thought for their own safety. Managed to get her onto a chair and an Ambulance was called, I don`t know what happened after that because I left the store but a well done to Lidl`s staff at Paignton. 1589713487927.png

I knew you wouldn't be able to resist your golf @Lanny good luck with the game, remember what the W H O said Rest, Rest, Rest,o_O:D😉 err I think, take care.🙂

@Michael12421 I`m with @SueEK just drooling thinking about it.:D

The suns just arrived temperature is 21.5.C so legs are already out more vitamin D, take care folks stay safe.🙂
 
04:37 BS 5.1! Umm! Think I went a little overboard on Novorapid 2 hours & 25 mins after injecting for a meal? Will keep an eye on it & have JB’s if necessary? 🙄 :confused:

Obviously, not a waking BS as I STILL slept a lot yesterday but, got up earlier & been awake for longer. Been awake since 21:44 last night BS 7.6. So, lower than yesterday’s 8.4 & heading in the right direction. 🙂

Yesterday’s BS readings were a little bit lower before meals as, again, I slept after eating. Also, again, I got the lunch bolus wrong as it was BS 11.3 when I woke up for dinner even though I upped the dose another 2 units. So, overcorrected, maybe, for dinner about 2.5 hours ago: BS 5.1 with another 1.5 hours of active insulin; COULD be dicey? 🙄😱 But, I’ll get there eventually & get it right!🙄

I finished the B9 of my final & I played a bit better but, still, overall, scored 1 shot worse than my opening round: 3 Eagles & didn’t Albatross the last hole; so, only -12 for B9 + the F9’s -13 previously for a total of -25. I scored -26 in the opening round. So, was 20th at the time I finished: round over at 07:45 & official results at 08:00; currently dropped to 23rd place & won’t know yet where I’ll finish? That dropped Eagle cost me 12 places but, that would still be only 11th! But, considering I’m still not quite 100% yet, I did pretty ok!🙂

I’ll post my medal, when I get it, after 08:00.

In the meantime, I thought I’d post Golf Clash’s Shot of The Week on youtube. The rarest shot of all that I’ve never seen before a Hole in One on a par 4 which counts as an Albatross, -3, on the card. It was on Hole 5/14 in this “Spring Major Tournament” 2020. I didn’t know what GC would call it, never seen it before, & called it an Albatross HIO but, GC just called it an HIO: doesn’t quite do it justice!:confused:

HIO Albatross on a par 4 in Spring Major Tournament 2020 Hole 5/14 from front tee in rookie division.


Full tournaments are a set of 9 holes that are then played again in the same order: each hole is played twice; once on the front 9 & once on the back 9. That’s why I labelled the Hole as 5/14 since, I don’t know if it was played on the F9 or B9?

It’s SOME AMAZING shot & I’m WAY off from being able to do THAT!😱

Anyways, enough about the golf!

An early Good Morning to you all & may you have a Wonderful Day!😉 It’s been a bit cooler & greyer but, as always, carry the Sunshine on the Inside & you won’t be grey even though it actually is on the outside!😛😎:D😉
