Group 7-day waking average?

Snap @Baz Another 5.5 here.

I seem to have gone from a late starter each day to an early riser. I think it is the summer and the pull of a cuppa in the garden before the world gets a bit noisier. Plans for a day in the garden doing the final bits of the Chelsea Chop on some of the plants that were hiding (or swamped)

Have a good day All
 
Morning yawing! 6.2 and wet and soggy oop north. I’m like you @SB2015 up before the larks at the moment. Hot, sweaty, uncomfortable and always starving! I hate DP and having to wait an hour before I can eat! No plans in particular today, when the rain abates, which the BBC has promised, Mr Eggy wants to transplant his leeks. Well someone has to I suppose! I’m going to make a lamb Madras for the freezer and take it with us on our holidays as we won’t be venturing into any restaurants, that’s for certain. Oh, I almost forgot, getting my brows and tash waxed 5th August, thank goodness, as I am starting to look like a cross between a catfish and Dennis Healey! Don’t know the ins and outs of it all yet but I suspect I may have to remove my face covering. Have a superb Saturday, whatever you are doing, waiting for parcels or lounging about on a cruise ship, tough choice! 😛
 
Good Morning everyone
I am another waking early, but it would be a waste of the summer light if not.
Murky and drizzle here. Should have been at RIAT this weekend in the wonderful Cotswolds. But hey ho next year!
So I think a lazy day
Straight 6 for me today
Best Wishes
 
Morning all. Libre says 4.4, accu-chek says 7.0. 🙂

What’s RIAT @Snoopyj?

Going to spend this grey Saturday giving our (almost finished, just waiting on the electrician now) downstairs bathroom/dog ‘bedroom’ a good old clean...before I decorate it next week. The excitement! Not as thrilling as your day tho @ColinUK.o_O:D
 
Oh dear not a good start to the day. Don’t read further if you are eating your breakfast.
7.2 for me but worse is the dog has a bad tummy and decided the white shaggy rug in the caravan was a better place to ‘do her business’ than the wood flooring in the kitchen. This is two days after we Vax’d the carpets. The offending article is now hanging over the decking waiting to be hosed down and we will have to see how it turns out and whether it is salvageable. I can ‘see’ you are all green with envy, I’m going to be green for another reason!! So, if I had a choice of a day lazing on the cruise, waiting for parcels or what I am about to do, I would definitely choose either of the first two lol.
Have a good day all x
 
Morning

Well it's a 5.5 for me this morning so no hat trick of the HS's

Have a nice day folks
xx
 
@SueEK Mum often speaks of a time when I was 6 months old and they’d gone to visit well-to-do friends in their flat in the West End... it was late 60s and the place was furnished in great taste, complete with white furniture everywhere and huge white Afghan rugs.
Apparently mum decided that I’d be fine with a little bit of chopped herring to eat.
I wasn’t.
They had to redecorate.
 
Morning it’s a 5.6 for me.

Venturing out to an outdoors cafe for a coffee with my sister today honestly I’m dizzy with the excitement of going somewhere else and drinking a bought cup of coffee!

Oh @SueEK what an absolute treat for you!😱 I hope your day gets better🙂

Enjoy your day, hope you’re all ok🙂
 
Another 5.5 here this morning. 🙂
Stay safe and well everyone.

Hello everyone, hope you are all well.

I wakened this morning to 4.0.

Been hibernating for a few days, Thursday was the 4th anniversary since my Dad died. Seems like just yesterday. But life goes on. I know he will be happier and no longer in pain.

Stay safe everyone x
 
Morning. 5.4 on waking, 6.4 beforebreakfast.
 
A 4.4 for me. Decorating for me today I think and planning what to do over the school holidays. Going to clear out the campervan. Looks like we are all in for exciting days ahead!

Ah hugs to you Hazel. I also ‘cocoon’ myself when times are tough. My mum died 15th June 27 years ago and my dad 18th June 13 years ago and that week each year is a tough one. So many memories and feels not so long ago so my heart goes out to you.
Nice to see you back and I hope you feel brighter in the coming days/weeks xx
