Group 7-day waking average?

Just back, exhausted but, it’s done. Took me me 5 stops on the way: weight of the full bin; 3 stops on the way back! That’s 750 steps exercise done today with weights! Met one person so, put my mask while he passed me at opposite sides of the width of the lane just wide enough for 2 cars to pass each other: definitely at least 2 metres! Am now sitting on the bed having a rest before I have breakfast!

Have a Wonderful Day everyone full of Sunshine on the Inside & the outside!😉 If it’s drizzling, like it is here, you’ll need to carry the sunshine with you on the inside!:D

We are extremely lucky to have an F Type Jag. V5 engine. It was our retirement present to ourselves three years ago. Not very practical at all, but hey, it’s great fun! We toured Europe in it for five weeks last year, it’s got a surprisingly decent sized boot. It’s Mr Eggy’s pride and joy, it hasn’t moved much in the last 11 weeks or so and he’s desperate to give her ( Camille) a decent run out. 🙂
 
Morning everyone. A very dull one but no rain. 7.3 today for me. It’s daughter number two’s birthday today. Yet another lockdown birthday in the family, including sons-in-law, this is number five. Anyways, she is 33 today and just found out she’s back at work next week, at least she’s had her birthday off. We are going to round later to see her and our eldest granddaughter. Only seen them fleetingly when they’ve dropped shopping off for us. Better put my thermals on I think, might be a bit chilly sitting in the garden today! Don’t worry Boris, I’ll heed your advice and not go inside. Some of us DO abide by the guidance. 😛

Nice 🙂
 
Morning all, 6,5 for me today, will be very interested to find what my HbA1c is this time, am sure it will be up on last time. Have DN review next Thursday. Hubby now back at work, doggy missing her walks, weather is clammy and dull, waiting for the downpour. Bit of an upset tum this morning which is not what I need just before doing the weeks shop at Sainsbury’s, need to leave soon so have a good day one and all x
 
Morning all, 5.7 here. Well it did rain in the end, yesterday. Not a lot, but the garden is looking a bit fresher. Hoping to go over to the next town and do a walk with daughter later, unless it rains again.
 
Morning all,
A big 6.0 for me today.
Hope it stays dry today, have more outside projects looming.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning

It's a 4.7 for me this morning, will see how today goes and possibly consider reducing my Tresiba a half unit, only a few weeks since I started upping it 🙄 all fun and games here lol not

Was quite chilly yesterday and feeling the same at the moment but hopefully the sun will appear later and heat the living room up a bit, I'm sure its probably not even that bad but its a shock to the system after such sweltering weather

Stay safe and have a nice day whatever you may be doing
xx
 
Morning everyone. Its a 7.3 for me today
 
Mooooorning! :D 6.1 here.

It’s hubby’s birthday today - 55, not a sprightly 33 like your daughter @eggyg. o_O It’s also his sister’s birthday, but she usually forgets his, oh and my second ex-SIL’s birthday too - popular date!
 
Morning All, late up for me for a change , My reading is 5.3 today hope every one has the best day possible
 
Morning all, hope everyone has a really good day.
7.9 for me this morning.
 
A 7.3 this morning, after one of those mad nights. A surprising 14.9 at bed, with no obvious explanation. Sorted eventually with set change on my pump, but then the long wait to check things were back in target before sleeping. That is when I wish Novorapid did ‘what it says on the tin’
Got lots of reading done, and now having a lazy day.
 
Disappointing 9.0 for me this morning despite increasing my basal another unit, but I had quite a fatty meal last night ( crispy duck pancakes... only 3 of those wafer thin pancakes... followed by home made low carb trifle for afters with lots of creamy custard and whipped cream) and my basal site bled quite a bit and blebbed so not sure if some of the insulin came back out. Decided not to do a correction with NR at bedtime but had hoped the extra Levemir would fix it.
Gave myself 3 units of NR this morning.... 2 for DP and +1 correction. Headed off to the sorting office to collect a parcel. Was a nice 6.1 before driving the 15 mins there but had to wait ages in a very well spaced and courteous queue. Had intended to go and get animal feed whilst I was out with the car but suddenly felt the need for the loo (despite going before I left the house). Got in the car to drive home and thought I had better test again as eyesight not great and I was down to 4.1, so hit it with a dextrose tablet (that is my no messing hypo treatment usually reserved for sub 3 readings but this was an emergency!!) and then 2 jelly babies and sat squirming in desperation trying to think "dry desert" thoughts for 40 mins whilst I came up above 5 and was fit to drive home to the loo. Pleased to report I made it.....just... but what a relief! Not sure if some of last night's insulin had been trapped in that bleb and joined the party this morning after I gave it a rub, but most inconvenient!

Some lovely news this morning that my lavender bantam pekin hen has hatched 8 chicks overnight.. full marks for her as that is a max result.... 8 from 8 eggs. All 8 chicks are lavender too.
Now it is just a case of waiting to see how unlucky I am as regards their sex. It is usually 5 or 6 weeks before you can tell. Will settle for 50/50 but chances are there will be more males than females and they are so cute, it is really hard to cull them. Not like the full size cockerels which turn into complete adolescent jerks and make the culling a little less difficult.... and there is nearly enough meat on the full size males to make them worth dressing and eating..... there is more meat on a pigeon than those little banties! ...Oh, the joys and realities of livestock rearing!
