Group 7-day waking average?

For no reason a 7.9 and rising this morning. A dull and miserable day and maths to look forward to. On the plus side, the husband brought me up a cup of tea in bed. Had a lovely walk with a good friend yesterday, but nothing planned except my daughter's drumming lesson on zoom which sadly I have to sit in on.
 
Bonjour! 5.9 this morning.

And apparently it’s going to be pelting down all day. If that’s the case then I probably won’t bother going to the National Gallery today even though I’ve got a ticket.
Go, go...Will Gomperz’s quick tour of one of the ‘routes’ (on the news the other night) looked great. You basically get some great artworks to yourself since visitor numbers are limited. :D

Morning all. 7.1 here.

Mum wants some heavy plants, old chimney pots, etc dragged into to the greenhouse, garage, etc...then I’m heading home. 🙂
 
4.7 had a funny few days with levels.

@Lanny @Michael12421 @Kaylz hope you all feel better.

@eggyg enjoy your trip and picnic.
Good luck with the maths @stephknits and drums!

I best go and talk about atomic structure to year 9!
 
Good morning folks.

Oh dear a 7.7 this morning.
 
G'day all. 7.9 🙂
 
Just back from blood tests! Absolutely exhausted because I walked about 350 steps in 3 rest stops from the health centre to the chemist to pick up my prescription before taxi home: energy wise is STILL not great; done now & will probably snooze the rest of the day as I’m wiped out! 😱

Cannot resist posting this & ask for your indulgence OR you CAN just completely ignore the following: I won’t know?🙄:D😉

It’s another Golf Clash tournament week, from Monday, & after 2 EXTREMELY hard, TERRIBLE Q1 & Q2 rounds on a completely new course I not only FINALLY got an Eagle I also got an Albatross on the last hole to finish in 1st. Place, so far, on -12 this last Q3 round: didn’t think I could qualify this tournament; now have a good chance!😱🙄 & Fingers crossed emoji!

Here it is:-

Albatross Redwood Cup Tournament Q3 on 08/07/20 par 5 Hole 9 Sequoia Creek 5c


PS: Forgot to say Q1 was -8 & Q2 was -9 without any Eagles at all & pretty much at the bottom NOWHERE near qualifying!😱 BUT, I suppose I learnt how NOT to play it!🙄
 
Oh dear! Unavoidable :( WHAT a time I’ve had since I got back from blood tests today: fighting hypo land BIG time; combo of exercise & too much midday Levemir which I kept at 56 units after I got back around 13:30, to be on the safe side!😱 I think I’ve gotten over my chill now & obviously need to dial back all my insulin doses: every couple weeks of hours I’ve needed to keep guzzling oatcakes & JB’s; just recovering from another hypo about 20:50 BS 3.8 & now back up to 5.8; hopefully it’ll be the last one before 01:30, need to delay to avoid overlapping!o_O Then, I will dial Levemir back down to pre chill doses of last weekend: midnight 26 & midday 46 units; 13:30 today was 56 units!😱 Diabetes keeping me hopping on my toes today! Please can I have a more stable day tomorrow? Two hands together PLEADING emoji!

I wonder if all the oatcakes & JB’s will hit me at some point tomorrow with high BS?🙄 Ah well, it probably will as I find it’s usual to be high after a hypo!:confused: So, so smile! It’ll be better than fighting recurring hypos!😱
 
01:07 BS 7.3 🙂 Quite relieved after all the hypos! Phew, wiping brow emoji! FINALLY went to bed for about 2 hours after last hypo treatment brought me up to 5.3 at 21:23 last night: REALLY EXHAUSTED after going out yesterday; only kept going by adrenaline which being anxious about testing to head off hypos helped to keep me awake, albeit wired!o_O That’s what I’m calling as a stir crazy emoji!:D

Went ahead & bunged in 26 units of Levemir anyway as BS had stayed up & didn’t add ANY Novorapid for DP as I didn’t know what sugars were going to do? Tested 02:09 BS 6..9 pretty steady so, had breakfast Novorapid all the way back down to pre chill dose of 28 units, had gone up to 46 units the last few days, & ate. After 03:47 12.6 a tad high & near enough 13mmol so, added +2 correction & 05:25 9.7 is ok, I think, with more active insulin to go. I’m feeling sleepy again, only got 2 hours sleep, but, will try to stay awake to keep an eye on things until active NR is over. THEN I’ll sleep: mammoth sleep session I suspect!🙄

An early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

PS: Oh yes, almost forgot! I’ve definitely qualified as there’s only 5 to finish & I’m still 1st!:D Official results 08:00 & there’s 2 days, today & tomorrow, to finish 18 holes of the opening round: hopefully I’ll have another good one even if another Albatross is too much to ask for; probably?🙄:D😉
 
Morning All Reading today 5.3 for me
 
Morning all,
Snap here @Baz. With a 5.3 also !
So close...
Very quiet and calm here this morning after the whirlwind visit from our grandson!
Aldi beckons later.

Blessings Snowwy
 
@Ditto Where did you find The Food Hospital? I’ve looked on All4 and can’t see it.

@Lanny Huge congrats on qualifying and here’s to another albatross!

And for me the scores on the doors today... 5.8

Didn’t go to the National yesterday as it was chucking it down when I would have had to leave but I’ve rebooked for next week 🙂
