There is simply too much to do just to do what I have to do even yet today. I cannot seem to get rolling any further than out of bed though. I had stripped and crawled in, thinking a nap would do. I set the alarm as well. After cooling down though, my mind started counting the things that have to be done.
The wheat is sprouting, and it is time, or will be tonight, to finish that process and start another batch. Did I miss a night in there? Until I get this down, some steps may be missed. As well, the garbanzo beans are soaked, and will be needing attention. I lack fresh garlic and fresh lemons, which I am going to try and obtain sometime today. And the standard beans, a mix, has soaked overnight and will need to be cooked this evening. None of those tasks, as it ends up, will be a major concern. All of them together, at once, is not a concern. What is a concern is that some of what was brought from storage will complicate the process where it sits currently. So, to even begin doing what I need to do, I will have to... I am not sure exactly, though it has to do with moving boxes, deciding things like where the cat food should now go, seeing if the table will fit in the dining niche along with the chairs, then reconfiguring the boxes so as to have some usable space back in the kitchen. No job, when dealing with a home, is quite digital. Idea meets fact, fact goes back to idea level if it fails or proceeds, considerations arise which either let the process continue or sends it back to the idea stage, and so on, until either the job is done, all available energy is spent, or time runs out on the work period.
There are other things I really would like to do, as much because they are one shot jobs (such as setting the bed up properly) as because the items which will be used to do those jobs are currently underfoot, more so in an already overcrowded with boxes and furniture home further conflated by the new arrivals. There are far too many of those jobs to do them all right now, the bed, 3 bookshelves, a couple of end tables, and whatnot else, plus then figuring out where to put them, to try the whole set of tasks at once. Of course, with the things which need rebuilt, finding the fasteners first seems to be as much of an issue as anything else. These jobs, all little, but when connected with what needs to go on before them, then the jobs themselves, and what to do after, make the simple into minor to major headaches. Hopefully, with the bed together tonight and the kitchen re-ordered, these things become more possible tomorrow and throughout the week. If I remember to look for the connectors, bolts, nuts, and whatever else tonight, that will be a great start.
Still, a shower, a run into the store, perhaps a check up on my friend, ending my storage account, and maybe a lunch. Perhaps maybe a mix of some of those things, if my friend wants to go around town a bit to get out of his apartment. But, only after I get the kitchen done I think. A little work here, a restful drive, some chow, a little social, and then back in time to begin working on the food. Yes, that is how I am seeing things.
I just could not rest. Cooling down and chilling for a half hour was quite good though. Now to get back to it. At least nothing will be as hard as this morning was, as reasonable as even that turned out to be. Wow, life really is beginning to pop a bit. I think I am actually getting a bit excited about the prospect of getting my home in order and beginning to then get popping on the outside, yard, and maybe checking some other areas for repairs, updates, upgrades, or other types of care. (Keep saying that...)
Later.
