Congratulations you little superstar. Amazing results. We are not worthy - well me anyhow.
Congratulations you little superstar. Amazing results. We are not worthy - well me anyhow.I did go ahead with my HbA1c on Friday as my DM said that I could retake it in 3 months if a week on antibiotics or Covid 19 jabs had messed up the numbers.
Just got email from DM. HbA1c was 35 - so there was absolutely no need to worry about it. It also looks like it didn't matter about the high fbs as the rest of the time numbers are fine.
Cholesterol down to 4.7 from 5.6. So another marker that is good. I think the 5.6 was the result of the vat loads of cream. Blood pressure reading was really good also.
Since starting the P;E. Diet on 1st April I have had an increased feeling of wellness = as though my body really is working much better by prioritising protein - rather than vat loads of cream.
I love the colours and the way the sunlight shimmers on the cherry blossom.Whoops I nearly forgot my Fbg and painting with all this key toggling discussion....

I was going to do this cherry blossom in iPastel app, but the colour dropper tool has been removed, or it is another casualty of the the latest Apple update on the iPad which has rendered several art apps totally unusable or defunct in certain features like saving your digital paintings.
So I was working in iPastel, then moved it to Procreate, then back again...
I spent too long on it. It was meant to be enjoyable. But ended up hard work to get what I wanted. I finished it, but then I didn't like it, and used one of my saved versions from an hour previously.
But it wasn't wasted time. I learnt some valuable information on how to create a different effect between layers...
Now back down the rabbit hole of symbols...

Thank you very much @Krystyna23040 for the lovely compliment.I love the colours and the way the sunlight shimmers on the cherry blossom.
Great results - congratulations this P:E is working well for you.I did go ahead with my HbA1c on Friday as my DN said that I could retake it in 3 months if a week on antibiotics or Covid 19 jabs had messed up the numbers.

Great, moody, monochrome. Lots of interest, follow the path into that enticing glade.Fbg 6.8
I was working on a digital painting with similar colours as yesterday only doing the full trees. I was working on changing it and moving the things in the painting around, but it never quite worked in my eyes. I liked it but I didn't like it, in equal measures.
Finally I converted my digital painting into mono. Now I like it very much! It is much more mystical.
I started it as a pastel in iPastel, and then put it into Procreate, and was working back-and-forth for a bit. There's about a couple of hours work in this painting.
The female blackbird is doing her flypast back-and-forth over my camouflage thatched roof on my swing leaving her daily messages. The messages may be white, but they're definitely not messages of surrender… And I have a greattit pecking away at the suet balls in the bird feeder, but is now being divebombed by the female blackbird.

This is brilliant @dunelmGood morning everyone, an exhibition of cloud formations is on the go here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of chicken in a cream and mushroom sauce came in a5 5.2 this am.
Mrs Miggins and her twin were out for a posh afternoon tea yesterday at an equally posh venue - a birthday gift from our daughter last year but only now able to use. She reports that only half the available tables were in use. Cool.
Our news reporters are working hard this morning reminding us what the insides of pubs, restaurants, child play areas an all manner of ancient archeological sites look like. Thank goodness we have such a dedicated team of entertainers usefully spending our licence fee.
Rotterdam - Eurovision - Noooooooooooo!
Second jab booked for Saturday but I am exercising caution, my imaginary dog. “Caution” is the new kid on the political scene - voted the best word since Gordon Brown’s “prudence”, nicked from The White Album.
Art today about 7x4 inches on quite thick but raw rice paper. Have a wonderful day, koffy time.

The fun off digital art being able to make everything black and white, excellent.Fbg 6.8

Fantastic view point and perspective you have given to the Mountain Range. Rugged as it is there is something pastoral about this scene, perhaps the colours help but I feel it's more than just colour achieving the feel.Good morning everyone, an exhibition of cloud formations is on the go here in the dark and dangerous north

Thank you so much @gennepher for your kind wordsThis is brilliant @dunelm
The colours are vibrant. The painting is structural. Amazing perspectives. It works on every level.
I love it!
Thank you @Muddy Cyclist - I hadn’t thought about it being pastoral. I wonder if it has to do with the inclusion of buildings.Fantastic view point and perspective you have given to the Mountain Range.

Never waste a bright dayGood Morning and 6.2 for me today? Stuffed Aubergine and salad for meal yesterday so I expected lower.
Bright day here so I'm sneaking in another Muddy Cycle ride then what I know not.
Keep safe find the good things your day offers.
Reminded me of this - well, le soleil brille and all that. (Lyrics here Genn.) I/we looked remarkably like this - Eagles - at UNI (some stunning moustaches on the gels) - tempus fugit etc, etc. 130 gms protein yesterday - oooh, I could crush a grape.
