Group 7-day waking average?

4.6 for me today. 🙂
Stay safe and well.

7.8 and I’m blaming work. Dreadful day yesterday, so busy, so many complicated tasks that at lunch time I threw caution to the wind and had a sausage roll, baaad girl 😳 😳.
Going down the van with my daughter and 2 grandchildren tomorrow for 5 days but weather is not looking good, never mind we will definitely spend the time laughing or perhaps cackling is more accurate.
Have a good day everyone x
 
Ears both cleared without medical intervention from the doc! And now I’ve got a cold
BG 6.4 this morning.
 
A marginally disappointing 5.7.

Final chance for Specsavers to sort my specs this morning. 10 o’clock appointment followed by a haircut. In any event I won’t be staying with Specsavers.
 
Specsavers are so hit n miss - the Swansea branch is excellent, but our local one (won’t say where 😉) is pretty so-so. Hope they give you a decent Specsavers haircut @HenryBennett.😛

Morning all. 4.8 here.🙂

It’s not windy (yet), it’s not raining (yet), the sun’s shining (wow) - garden, here I come! There’s a bindweed invasion that needs sorting.:D
 
Morning all. Another Len Goodman SEVEN! Still raining but promises to brighten up later this morning. A trip into town for a haircut, Mr Eggy, not me. Need three birthday cards and two presents. Then we are hoping to jump on the 50% off bandwagon and have a decent lunch somewhere. Saves me cooking later. We’ll do all this using Shanks’ pony if the weather fairs up. Should get 7/8 miles in. Was stir crazy yesterday not being able to get out, although I did finish my book. Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone. 🙂

Morning

Well Milky Way cake bars were missing from the Morrisons order again along with the Galaxy Caramel ones Bruce wanted, seems I’m destined never to try them They also messed up on my almond milk sending regular instead of unsweetened, I called customer services as soon as I was aware just to let them know that their pickers maybe weren’t paying attention but the guy was very kind to give me a refund as it was their mistake, no mention on the email that it was a substitute so couldn’t refuse it as that and due to it being dietary even though I told him when he answered my call I wasn’t after a refund lol

Anyways its a 4.9 for me this morning

@freesia glad your DSN got in touch, after 2 evenings of my readings being haywire I too have upped my Tresiba as of last night, thanks hun, with my OCD and anxiety I don't really have good days, not much of a life just an existence really and yesterday my mum got word that she returns to work on Saturday morning so made me worse as now I'm absolutely petrified, anyway enough of my doom and gloom, I hope things start to improve over the next couple of days for you

Have a nice day folks and stay safe
xx
 
Morning all, 5.9 here. Wind seems to have abated. A large tree fell across one of the roads into the village, luckily I needed the road out in the opposite direction when I went out. Had a hair appointment, but the power was out at the salon when I got there, so had a quick spritz with cold water spray instead of a wash so she could cut it, and came home to blow dry it myself! Not a problem, these things happen especially in rural areas. The main thing is, I can see out from under my fringe again.

May I ask why you see that as disappointing? xx

It’s all relative I guess. I’m disappointed when I go over 6 in the mornings because it’s not what I’m most used to seeing. But I know it’s a perfectly acceptable level. Doesn’t stop me wishing I was waking to a 5.0 or 4.8 though.
 
A 5.3 for me this morning. After a short patch where my average was up it now seems to have settled back to where it used to be. No explanation for it so it must be the old diabetes fairy.

@HenryBennett - next time you need specs, find an independent. That is coming from somebody who was an independent specialist retailer (albeit not specs) who had to pick up the pieces when the chains did not live up to their advertising. And I was a lot cheaper.
 
Good morning everyone. A much more acceptable 7.1 here this morning and an almost flat line overnight. Hooray!! Today its an Asda shop, then taking back clothes that do not fit (its a pain not being able to try them on in store), homw to unpack food, lunch then a visit to the minor injuries unit to have blood test. If the rain keeps away then i'll be sweeping up leaves in the garden..so many came down with this wind. Still windy, cool and cloudy here.
@Kaylz, i hope your levels start to settle and i'm sure you'll get your Milky Way cake bars at some point.
@SueEK , have a good weekend. Laughter is the best medicine.
@eggyg, enjoy your lunch. 50% off tastes great.
@Robin, i'm glad you can see again.
@Anitram , enjoy Cornwall, it was lovely a few weeks ago when we went.
Have a good day everyone

@Kaylz, its really sad you feel like that. Anxiety is a horrible things so with your OCD on top it must be hard. You are so supportive of people on this forum, i hope you know that we are here to support you too.
