Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all it's 5.5 from me today
 
Bonjour tout le peeps!

5.3 pour moi 🙂

Absolutely zero planned for today apart from wandering down the road at 1pm to a wonderful community garden for their weekly plant sale. A couple of the bedding plants haven’t lasted so I’m thinking of perhaps picking up a couple of low growing herbs and filling the spaces with them but I’ll see what they have for sale and make a decision. Other than that and a spot of housework I think it might be a lazy Netflix marathon kind of day today.
 
Morning. A very nice 5.9 for me. Big day today. The non essential shops are reopening. Yeah! I’m joking of course, far too early to have such normality. My fear is, folks will now think the virus has disappeared because Primark has opened! If you do decide to venture in to the big bad world of retail, please be careful. 🙂
 
Morning

Wish me luck, I’m hoping I hear some good news on the washing machine front today!

Bubbles wasn’t too well yesterday afternoon and evening, think he has a hairball but cant get anything up so didn’t get any tea last night, scoffed breakfast in minutes today though

5.4 for me today, stay safe and well my lovelies
xx
 
Moooorning! :D 3.7 here. 🙂

You’re right @Robin the weeks have picked up speed and are flying by! No such luxury as shopping here in Wales. Stay safe those that are going to indulge - I bet there’ll be tons of bargains.😛
 
Morning all, 7.9 for me today. Dreading work in a way today as I think the high street will be busier with other shops opening. Our high street now has a walking one way system in too, should be interesting to see how that works! I'm wearing this from today though!

Fortnum and Mason are now open fully as is Selfridges. John Lewis aren’t opening Oxford St just yet and I’m not sure about Harrods but it might be fun wandering around such everyday essential shops when they all are 🙂

Quite a lot of shops have made a point of saying that there are no special discounts, promotions or sales. I guess it’s to actually dissuade folks from coming out en mass and creating chaos.
 
Good Morning everyone.
9.4 for me today.
Lovely meal in our new little bubble yesterday :D
I live on the edge of the Peak District. Suns out today, but paperwork for me.
Enjoy your day and keep safe
 
3.8 this morning. Oops.

Another Monday. We have a new floor in the attic and everything is back in place, so itching to get up there to make some bunting, but the sun has come out. A bit of gardening first.

Life seems strangely familiar!!
 
09:50 BS 5.2 😱 YAY! Jumping up & down in excitement emoji! A rare for me HS!:D

A bit of a delay as I picked up my golf results, virtual & not real unlike @Gruers , & I came in at 42nd. Place! 😛 Here’s my medal:-

AAEE941A-31A1-4E9C-B7A9-541032D19739.jpeg

Making sure I tested last night when midnight Levemir went in, reducing my dinner dose Novorapid a bit & I was still a bit low BS 4.7 when alarm woke me so, had half oatcake this time, yesterday’s 1 oatcake was too much, & I wake up with a lower reading is good enough for me but, I get an extra bonus of the elusive House Special! Ain’t diabetes funny at times?🙄:D😛😉

A VERY Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day full of Super Bright Sunshine Inside & outside!😉😎:D😛😉
 
Good morning on a warm sunny/cloudy day, 4.6 as the sun goes behind a westerly cloud with more in tow.🙄
Been to Sports Direct this morning and turned around and came back, queue is about a mile long with the mandatory
2 centimetres apart,🙄o_O😱 give in.

That's a pity @ColinUK I was going to come up to the smoke today or was it going up in smoke, who knows? its hot either way.:D

Great result @Lanny on HS & golf congratulations.🙂

Good luck with the washing machine @Kaylz.🙂

Watch them thar crowds folks, take care stay safe.🙂[/QUOTE]
 
Well, I am finding this most strange! Third 3 in a row for me with the Libre....@ 3.2 .... although BG meter says 4.3 and I didn't feel hypo. I went to bed very late/early (after a midnight walk and no dinner) and had a wholegrain biscuit with lots of cheese to bring me up to 6.6 before my head hit the pillow.
Tonight I will take my BG up to 7 or 8 before bed and try again otherwise my basal will be dropping another unit tomorrow night.
I actually went back to bed this morning after a very small hypo treatment (just 2 jelly beans and a multigrain biscuit with cream cheese) and a large glass of water for the above reading, expecting DP to kick in and didn't wake up again until 11am when my Libre was reading 4.1, so I learned that no matter what time I get up, DP waits until I properly get going before it kicks in, which is interesting.... and very convenient..... I wonder if this is a result of working rotating shifts for so many years. Jabbed 2 units for DP plus my Levemir (3 hours later than usual... oops!), and cooked myself another very filling omelette with salad brunch. Getting my straightest flattest Libre line so far and just jabbed another 1.5 for the protein which will be kicking in soon.

Still loving my Libre even if it is telling slight porkies sometimes on a morning! On charge again today as it is doing a lot of work at the moment!... I imagine the novelty will wear off a bit soon as I develop a system for timing my insulin right.

@Lanny Many many congratulations on your House Special! Pass the baton to me please as I would really like it to be my turn for one soon! Well done on your 42nd place. What is your top placing so far?

@Hazel...belated birthday wishes for yesterday. Good for you having a treat.... those banana and sultana cakes sound gorgeous!

@ColinUK Nice to see you back to superb readings again Colin....Fingers crossed you still sub 15st this morning too!

@Michael12421 Pleased to see another good number from you this morning Michael.... Hope you and the girls are both well and the sun is shining where you are.
 
Sun is shining, it's only in the low 30's but very welcome. Car has finally, after 12 weeks of idleness, been started and is now being prepared for its ITV (MOT) and once that is all done I'm going to ram-raid ALDI! We are all well Barbara-thanks very much.
