Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all,
A 5.5 for me today!
@SueEK LOL my wife says the same about mozzies, must be very tasty!
All the best with work today, I am back in daughters loft room (hopefully cooler) for some more decorating!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all, 7.8 for me today. Great weekend off. Only 4 days at work this week then i have almost 2 weeks off. I need it, apart from my normal 2 days off a week I've not had any time off since march and the 2nd crazy week of panic buying.
 
No morning testing for me today. BG monitor needs a new battery I think. Unless it’s broken.
 
Morning all, 7.5 here, no idea why. I would normally have expected to be lower as I had a glass of red wine yesterday evening, and then rushed out to prune a couple of shrubs in between thunderstorms, to fill the green waste bin before collection. No Libre on at the mo, as my last one suddenly ended three days early, so no idea what went on overnight. I will be speaking to Abbot today!
 
Morning

Well Bruce will be on his way to the hospital now, fingers crossed everything goes well this time! Hoping they either tell him he doesn’t need to wear his splint anymore (that hand/arm could do with a wash after 2 weeks!) or give him a clean one as he mentioned on Friday when it was off at the hospital it was stinking with sweat, well it would be after the weather we’ve been having! I really hope he doesn’t have to wear it from tomorrow though!

Anyways it’s a 5.7 for me on this welcome cooler day

@Michael12421 I hope you've managed to get your levels up by now and feel better soon

Have a nice day folks and stay safe
xx
 
Moooorning! :D 4.3 here.

Thanks for reminding us it’s Monday @Anitram.😉

Painting’s finished. Just got to reassemble my office then it’s full steam ahead on my reading for uni - don’t know where my oomph has gone lately. I need a boot up the backside.o_O Mind you, that pesky bindweed is waving at me from the hedge. Maybe I’ll just decimate that first...🙄🙂
 
Good morning from an extremely wet Cumbria. Torrential rain since at least 4.45am when it woke me. Yet another 6.8 for me. Going to tackle the ironing today, drink Diet Coke, eat 85% chocolate and watch c**p telly that I’ve recorded! What more could a gal want? 😉
Have a Happy Monday whatever you do and wherever you are.🙂
 
6.9 for me this morning, so at least just back in the 6s after those concerning run of reading in the 8s.

Unexpected exercise yesterday. We have a shared boundary hedge with our neighbours, which had got very overgrown, and somebody decided that it was the day to attack it. So it became a communal effort, and I ended up in the 'pick it up, chop it up and bag it' team. All done with much fun and laughter, but with many people around too easy to forget the social distancing.
 
Morning all. Its a 6.3 from cloudy Staffordshire atm, forecasting rain again later. Hopefully i can fit in a walk before it pelts it down again. Happy Monday everyone.
 
I'm joining the 5.8 club today. 🙂

Stay safe and well.

It’s a 7.7 this morning after a 5.2 last night but lower than previous mornings
have a good day. I’ve started isolation as I have a hospital procedure on the horizon so no golf for a while doing some gardening instead

How long do your batteries last Colin mine seem to need replacing every 7/10 days?

o_O what kind of meter and batteries do you use? my meter takes at least 5 tests a day and the batteries last about 3 months at a time xx

Morning all. Another 6.8 for me today. I have been given a new metre, not happy as it’s the cheapest of the cheap. I did have a lovely Accu- Chek mobile but they won’t prescribe me the cassettes for it anymore! I was given that by the hospital two years ago when I was re categorised as Type 1. I started using the new one on Thursday and my readings have all been quite a bit higher than usual. I’m not happy about it at all. 😡I’m going to contact my DSN at the clinic to see if they can persuade the GP surgery to put them back on my prescription.
Anyhoo, have a good day all, it’s decidedly cooler today but most welcome.🙂

Hi eggyg. They did the same at our Practice when I was in MDI, but I explained that I used my specific meter for Bolus calculations for my insulin and they switched me back. I hope that you get it sorted.
