Group 7-day waking average?

Afternoon All. Busy day today. So a bit late!

6.9 on waking and 5.9 when I got up - I’ll claim 5.9!!!

Hope all had a nice day in the cooler weather.

@eggyg lovely car!
 
4.7 this fine morning. ☺
Wear a mask face covering or don't wear one, but STAY A LERT

05:02 BS 7.7 🙂 Going in the right direction again!

Boy! It’s COLD this morning: woke up a little bit wheezy in the cold air JUST before my 05:00 alarm & I switched on the electric heater & will keep it on while I warm up a bit. Shivering in cold emoji!

Now that I’m sitting up I’m not wheezy anymore & will post this before taking my inhalers: no PARTICULAR hurray, then!🙄

I have a bit of a guilty conscience to confess! My eldest SIL phoned me last night just before 21:45 after I’d already gone to sleep for a few hours, checked my watch after the quick call, I was woken up & answered very sleepily. She knew right away I was woken up & didn’t speak long: just asked the usual am I ok & it’s turning chillier, wrap up warm & don’t catch a cold; to all of which I lied to her on both counts! I decided last week that I wouldn’t tell either of my 2 brothers here, in Ballymoney, about me having CV because of both my SIL’s: 1 in isolation for having finished a course of chemo for cancer & the other shielding while recovering from a cancer tumour removed! I compromised & told my sister a bit further away, 20 miles, in Ballymena with strict instructions NOT to tell them: they’ll only worry & can’t do anything for me; I couldn’t bare the thought of putting them in danger! But, it was a good thing the phone call was so short as I REALLY didn’t like lying either!

There! Feel a bit better after my confession!

An early Good Morning to you all & stay warm as it’s turned chilly!😉 Wishing you all some nice warming Sunshine on the Inside to keep those shivers away!😎😉
 
Morning all
@Northerner snap ! 5.6 for me too...

Contemplating a run but it seems to be raining :(
Glad I did the patio yesterday such a messy job.
Could be indoor stuff today although a trip to Homebase is needed.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all, it’s wet and soggy and I need it to stop now, the garden has been watered enough! A 6.4 today. Walked to daughter’s yesterday to give her her birthday present, just money, well there’s no shops open is there? Was dry and warm when we set off, sat in her garden and then the rain started, we all huddled under the gazebo, unfortunately no social distancing was adhered to. Not allowed in the house of course and son-in-law isn’t allowed to give us a lift home either! It eventually eased and we set off to walk home ( four miles). We made it to three miles and the heavens opened ! We were a tad wet! It’ll have washed any potential Covid 19 germs away anyways! 😉 So a total of 8.3 miles walked yesterday and I still didn’t wake on a HS!:confused: Have a fun Friday.
@Lanny you didn’t lie, you omitted to tell the truth. That’s the difference.
 
5.2 this morning after recording a 4.8 last night before bed.
It’s chilly in old London Town this morning so I’ve gone back to bed and am snuggled under the duvet with the cat asleep (kinda) at my feet.
Weight has dropped a smidge further and I’m now 96.6kg - I’m really looking forward to dropping into the 14st something range soon.
 
Morning all,
Today was a 6.3 morning for me , hope every one has the best today possible
 
Seven day waking average is 6.0 that includes a few low 5.2s, the others all under 7.

My stomach is still doing somersaults and sounds like an ancient heating system. I’m not sure whether to start taking Imodium, off to speak to the DN, but any suggestions from the team on here gratefully received.
 
Morning

Nothing good about it, sold that laptop last week for £150, last night had to spend £249 on a new washing machine and it wont even be here until 10th! Last nights washing was done in the bath while Bruce is going to wash some of our stuff as well until it arrives, then this morning to top it all off we have no electric, was fine and suddenly went off at about 7:15, I cant take much more and really am feeling VERY deflated and close to tears :(

5.4 today and apparently an engineer should be here for 7:45 but mum can deal with that

Stay safe
xx
 
Morning all, 5.1 here. Managed a walk with daughter and a socially distanced cup of tea in her garden yesterday, unlike @eggyg we managed to dodge the showers. Footpaths were still cracked and bone dry, you’d never have known it had rained the day before.
 
Morning all a 4.2 for me this morning. Pootled downstairs and made a cup of tea and now still huddled up in bed looking at the rain. Hope you have dried out eggy and lucky you for not getting soaked Robin. Aside from struggling through maths, English and whatever else with my youngest, I am sorting out more car troubles today. Was driving my husband's car, now with new battery and a lovely man in a BMW drove into the back of me at a roundabout. No harm to anyone, so all fine and I wasn't being sarcastic, he really was a lovely man. But another thing to sort..
Have wonderous days all!
 
Morning peoples 🙂 . Delighted to report a 5,6 today, I had a rare lie in, it obviously suits me. Still no rain and lawn looking decidedly brown. Sky keeps threatening rain but none as yet. Met daughter and grandchildren yesterday in park for a walk with the doggies. My dog has obviously missed her dog as she was out of the car like a bolt of lightening and off across the park to greet him, was so sweet.
@Lanny you have done the right thing I think, what could they do except worry and you have let your sister know, rest easy about it, little white lies are sometimes necessary.
Feel for the McCann’s today, can’t believe it was 13 years ago Madeline was taken :confused:
Have a good day all x
 
12 hours sleep!!!!! What a difference that makes. It was worth missing QI.

5.6 this morning. Finally got the change in basal rate okay (for now)
It looks cold out there. Can I get away with doing the same as @stephknits and huddling under the duvet for a bit longer, and having my forthcoming Zoom meet up from there. Perhaps not.
