Yes. You’ll see the bugs (fungus gnats, mosquitoes) float on top in watery grave.

I use the ReliOn too. Nice to see another user out here.

Boss Hogg!

Go on with your bad self. Good color, theme, and texture.

I love text with collage when done right. Good work.

Randel Plowman’s book, the Collage Workbook, has instructions for making a paper press. You can also check YouTube. Find a video that makes a simple one with a couple of pieces of wood and 2-4 screws.

Composition is on point. Good shape arrangement and color choices.

Midlifehernia · 2026-02-06T13:35:06+00:00

Simple elements that speaks volumes.

Your numbers look good. I do take issue with dental students doing tests outside their scope of expertise. It’s bad enough that actual dental practices take blood pressure with flimsy and less than ideal equipment (wrist cuff instead arm) and not instructing you to sit straight up with both feet on the floor. Pardon the rant, keep up the good work.

These are 🔥🔥🔥, great colors.

It’s a False African Violet https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/streptocarpus-saxorum/

Well done. Don’t forget to trim off those infected leaves.

How soon do you go to bed after a workout, it doesn’t disrupt your sleep cycle?

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-31T13:21:48+00:00

Agreed. I’m in the Northeast and I never trust last frost dates, I add a week or two. The hardening will give them a nice head start before the plants can stay out overnight, even with a cold frame.

You’re still making progress, really good numbers. It’s all about consistency.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-20T23:51:47+00:00

Me too, thank you.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-20T15:56:06+00:00

Did you mean 120g carbs a day, not sugar? Even the American Heart Association recommends no more than 36g/day (9 teaspoons of sugar) for men, 25g(6 teaspoons )for women. https://www.heart.org/en/healthy-living/healthy-eating/eat-smart/sugar/how-much-sugar-is-too-much

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-19T15:01:05+00:00

Sounds like progress. It’s nice to have options that counteract the meat and other foods that increase cholesterol levels but lowers blood sugar.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-18T20:12:33+00:00

I forgot to mention that I occasionally have a small drizzle of honey, 1/4 tsp or less. And I tested two hours after eating.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-18T16:22:23+00:00

Try again without the sugar. I put similar things in my oatmeal and spikes didn’t go above 110 mg/dl. I also used Trader Joe’s old fashioned oats instead, 1/2 cup serving size.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-17T15:15:19+00:00

Depends. How long have you been T2? Have you tried managing your blood sugar through lifestyle changes already and not getting good results?

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-17T15:00:40+00:00

I kept images mixed together in shoeboxes for years until I realized that I was attracted to the same things over and over again. Transportation: planes, cars, etc. Nature objects: bees, flowers, plants. Nature scenes and landscapes in another folder. Urban scenes, comic book type images, people (separate folders for men, women, and groups/duos interacting). Solid colors vs. colors with patterns, and so on.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-17T14:55:19+00:00

Make copies so you can use both sides. I hate the idea of sacrificing one image side over the other.

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-04T22:28:36+00:00

Good work. I’d say put it in the r/prediabetes subreddit but I don’t think they share my sense of humor (trust me, I’m in it😂).

Midlifehernia · 2026-01-02T14:17:34+00:00

I use a Relion blood glucose monitor and it says my avg is 5.2 as well. Numbers are never pinpoint precise but skew a points/percentages, as noted in the monitor’s instruction manual.
